Qalam mein ab siyahi nahi lahu hona chahiye
Inquilab ab likhna nahi, inquilab hona chahiye.

-

Mirrors, and a lot of them
Each offering a different view
Of my decaying body
Wearing a mask of happiness.

Or is it you, my love?
Spying on my lifeless soul
Drowned in darkness.

Mirrors, and a lot of them
Yet none
Which could
Kiss me back to life.

-

Teri khushbu se to hoti hai mulaqat shab-o-roz
Chehra bhi dikha de ab kis baat ki parda-dari

-

Guzaar kar chand lamhe Khushi ke uske sath
Tamam umr ka gham kamaya Maine
Mir-o-ghalib par bhi guzri thi ye marhala-e-shab
Ye keh kar dil-e-nadan ko behlaya maine

-

Teri mohabbat mein Jo likhe the qasaid unhe
Varaq-dar-varaq jala raha hoon main

-

The castle of our love
Long standing on the pillars of your false promises
Has finally fallen
Now all that remains
Is the debris
Of dreams, expectations and memories.

-

You were December
And
I was January
Our union was destined
And
So was our separation.

-

There is no December
in my calendar of love
the year never ends
the longing never ends.

-

Stay with me
not forever
but until I fall asleep
one last time
to never wake up again.

-

Your Memories.
And see yourself
running out of ink and paper.
