Those without ears are better listeners

-

थक कर ज़िन्दगी के सफ़र से
हमने ख़ुदा से एक हमराही मांगा
उसने तेरे इश्क से नवाज़ा
माना कुछ ग़लतीयाँ हमसे भी हूइ
अब ऐसा भी क्या रूठना
कि सिर्फ तेरा रेहकर भी
तेरे इश्क ने मूझ़े फिर तन्हा करदिया

Khwaboon ke pul bandhe hum bhi nikle the
Jawani ki galiyon mein
Zimmedirayon ne saara nasha utar diya
Mohabbat maangi thi humne khuda se
Aur dhue ke do kash ne saara gum bhula diya

-

Kaabiliyat naapte ho abhimaan se
Bahut guroor dikhta hai tumhe in aankhon main
Kabhi parchaiyo me bhi jhaank kar dekho
Bahut gum chupa diye humne is jhuti muskaan se

-

The soul bears immense attachment
To the creator
And is distracted to get closer

-

The eyes that aid you aren't yours
But of those being there just for you
In pursuit of your own eyes
You seem lost in theirs.

-

The dead shall seek the living and be enlightened

-

धूप में हमने सायें बिखरते देखे हैं
जनाब इन आंखों ने अपनों को भी अल्फ़ाज़ बदलते देखे हैं

-

The reason you stumbled here
Is the same which I shared once
But now look at our destinies.

-

Itni na fikar karo humari
Dil ko na itni taklif do apne
Tham jao itni na rakho bekarari
Humne bhi sajaye hai thode sapne suhane
Wajah nahi wajood dhundha hai
Tabhi to aapke saare bahane lagte hai nirale
