rahamat pe teri mere gunaaho ko naaz hai
badaa hun jaanataa hun tu badaanawaaz hai

palti jidhar adaa se lubhaataan-e-khun ke hun
uf yaar qahar ki nigaah-e-nimabaaz hai

kah do ye sagadil se ke teraa sag-e-aastaan
ye dekh le ke kisaki ki jabi me niyaaz hai

munh par lagi hai mohar-e-khamoshi mai kyaa kahun
jo maut ne kahaa hai wo achchhi taraaz hai

Upon Your mercy, my sins find their boast,
A servant I am, knowing You heed the ghost.
Where beauty turned, I bled for love's sweet sting,
Alas, a wrathful glance, a half-closed host.

Tell the stone heart, your doorstep's cold embrace,
To see whose brow bows down in sacred space.
A seal of silence pressed upon my face,
What death has spoken, a perfect, final trace.
