aasan nahi yaha aashiq ho jana
palko pe kaanto ko sajaana
aashiq ko milti hai gham ki saugate
sabko na milta ye khajana

baato se aage, wado se aage
dekho jara tum kabhi
ye to hai shola, ye hai chingari
ye hai jawag bhi

jismo ke pichhe bhaage ho phirte
utaro kabhi ruh me
hota kya aashiq, kya aashiqi hai
hogi khabar tab tumhe

To be a lover here, a path untrod,
Is to adorn your lashes with thorns, a strange load.
For lovers are gifted with sorrow's embrace,
A treasure denied to the common space.

Beyond words whispered, beyond vows' decree,
Gaze deeply within, and truly see.
This is the flame, the spark that ignites,
A fire that burns through the darkest nights.

You chase after forms, a fleeting quest,
Descend into souls, find true rest.
What is a lover? What love's true art?
Only then will truth touch your heart.
