Tarq-e-talukat me roya na tum na main...
Lekin ye kya chayn se soya na tum na main...
Wo humsafar tha...magar uss se humnawai na thi...
Keh dhoop chhaon ka aalam raha...judaai na thi...
Adawatein thi...thagaful tha...ranjishen thi magar...
Bichharney waale me sb kucch tha...bewafaai na thi...
Bichhartey waqt bhi unn aankhon me thi humari ghazal...
Ghazal bhi wo Jo kisii ko kbhi sunaai na thi...
When we parted neither you cried nor I...
But what's this? A peaceful sleep since has never touched our eyes...
He was my companion...
But not in harmony were we...
Like clouds n sunshine...
Together,but as apart can be...
There were feelings of animosity indifference n anguish between us...
My departed lover had been everything but unfaithful...
The last tym I looked into his eyes...
My poem reflected back at me...
Those verses which I had never recited to anyone...
