Raat yun dil mai.N teri khoiye huwe yaad aai
jaisey veeraney mai.N chupkey se
bahar aajaey
jaisey sehraoo.N main hooley se chaley
baad-e-naseem
jaisey beemar ko bay_vajah qarar aajaye...
At night my lost memory of you
returned
and I was like the empty field where
springtime,
without being noticed, is bringing flowers;
I was like the desert over which
the breeze moves gently, with great
care;
I was like the dying patient
who, for no reason, smiles.........faiz ahmed faiz
