dekh to dil ki jaan se uThta hai
dekh to dil ki jaañ se uThtā hai
ye dhuāñ sā kahāñ se uThtā hai
see if it rises from the heart or from the soul it flows
does anybody know the source from where this smoke arose?
gor kis diljale kī hai ye falak
shola ik sub.h yaañ se uThtā hai
the sky is the grave of which person burnt in love?
a ball of fire every morn rises there above
ḳhāna-e-dil se zīnhār na jā
koī aise makāñ se uThtā hai
without a reason, do not leave the quarters of the heart
does anyone in such a way from his home depart?
naala sar khīñchtā hai jab merā
shor ik āsmāñ se uThtā hai
when my feelings find their voice in these my plaintive cries
a deafening uproar occurs and resonates the skies
laḌtī hai us kī chashm-e-shoḳh jahāñ
ek āshob vaañ se uThtā hai
where'er her am'rous glance its mark darts out to find
thereon a storm's unleashed,with chaos close behind
sudh le ghar kī bhī shola-e-āvāz
duud kuchh āshiyāñ se uThtā hai
be mindful too of your abode, you of the flaming voice
smoke is rising from your nest, take heed ere you rejoice
baiThne kaun de hai phir us ko
jo tire āstāñ se uThtā hai
who then will let him sit again, at peace how will he be
if someone rises and departs from your company
yuuñ uThe aah us galī se ham
jaise koī jahāñ se uThtā hai
in such a manner from her street I had to go, I grieve
from this universe as though someone were to leave
ishq ik 'mīr' bhārī patthar hai
kab ye tujh nā-tavāñ se uThtā hai
love is a real burden, Miir, it is a heavy stone
how can it be lifted by a weak person alone?
dekh to dil ki jaan se uThta hai
ye dhuan sa kahan se uThta hai
see if it rises from the heart or from the soul it flows
does anybody know the source from where this smoke arose?
gor kis diljale ki hai ye falak
shola ek subh yan se uThta hai
the sky is the grave of which person burnt in love?
a ball of fire every morn rises there above
KHana-e-dil se zinhaar na ja
koi aise makan se uThta hai
without a reason, do not leave the quarters of the heart
does anyone in such a way from his home depart?
nala sar khinchta hai jab mera
shor ek aasman se uThta hai
when my feelings find their voice in these my plaintive cries
a deafening uproar occurs and resonates the skies
laDti hai us ki chashm-e-shoKH jahan
ek aashob wan se uThta hai
where'er her am'rous glance its mark darts out to find
thereon a storm's unleashed,with chaos close behind
sudh le ghar ki bhi shola-e-awaz
dud kuchh aashiyan se uThta hai
be mindful too of your abode, you of the flaming voice
smoke is rising from your nest, take heed ere you rejoice
baiThne kaun de hai phir us ko
jo tere aastan se uThta hai
who then will let him sit again, at peace how will he be
if someone rises and departs from your company
yun uThe aah us gali se hum
jaise koi jahan se uThta hai
in such a manner from her street I had to go, I grieve
from this universe as though someone were to leave
ishq ek 'mir' bhaari patthar hai
kab ye tujh na-tawan se uThta hai
love is a real burden, Miir, it is a heavy stone
how can it be lifted by a weak person alone?
