A shroud clouds vice
“dhapa kafan mein dage uyube barahnagi mai,
Varnah har libas mei nange vujud thaa ”
“No raiment doth hide
The nakedness of life
It’s only the shroud
Which will cloud
All signs of my vice .”

Which will cloud
All signs of my vice .”
Hum muvahhid hai , hamara kes hai tarke rusum , millateh jab mit gayi ajza -e-ima ho gayi
“Guncha phir laga khilne , Aaj Kiya hua dekha , gum Kiya hua Paya “ The spring has come again And all around. Again The flowers have taken bloom I too have found my heart Lost and stained with blood.
“Unke Dekhe seh joh aa jati hai joh muh par raunak , Woh samajhte hein ki bimar ka hal accha hai ” Even a sight of hers And my whole face brightens. Oh the irony of it ! For she feels I am better And my illness Is fading away!
“Dame har maoj me hai , halqah – e sadkame nihang Dekhe kya guzre hai qatre pe , guhar hone tak .” “For I would be the drop That turns into a pearl But the dangers all around With crocodiles ferocious With open jaws.”
Ima mujhe roke hai, Jo khiche hai mujhe kufr , kabah mere piche hai , kalisa mere aage “ Virtue pulls me From behind But oh For the pull of temptations In front . With the ka’ba Behind me It’s the heresy In front! 威而鋼
Dil hi toh hai, siyasate darba se dar gaya , mai, aor jau dar se tere bin sada kiye” That I should return From your door Without giving a call. But this silly heart Full of fear Of the guard At your door.”
