**********************************************************************
Ay husnay-be-parba tujhay shabnam kahoon shola kahoon,
Phoolon mein bhi shokhi to hai, kisko magar tujsa kahoon !
[Oh ! Paragon of beauty, shall I call you dew
or shall I call you fire,
Even flowers are mischievous, but whom shall I call like you !]
Gaysoon uday mehki fazan, jadoo karein
aaankhay teri,
Soya hua manzar kahoon, ya jaagta sapna kahoon !
[When you let your hair loose, whole atmosphere
gets filled with sweet fragrance,
And your eyes are mystical, Shall I call it sleeping beauty or
shall I call it a sweet dream !]
Chanda ki tu hai chaandni, lehron ki tu hai
raagni,
Jaan-e-tammna main tujhay, kya kya kahoon kya na kahoon !
[You are Moon's beauty, and you are like music
rendered by waves,
Oh my beloved, What shall I and what shouldn't I call you !]
Ay husnay-be-parba tujhay shabnam kahoon
shola kahoon,
Phoolon mein bhi shokhi to hai, kisko magar tujsa kahoon !
