Ab ke hum bichray he... by Ahmad Faraz / Mehdi Hassan

 

After we say good-bye this time,

we may only meet in dreams...

Quite like dried up flowers

sometimes turn up in books...

 

Go, search for loyalty

among troubled and lost people...

These rare jewels will possibly

be found among these and no where...

 

You are not God,

and neither is my love divine...

When the two are human,

then why the need to hide behind veils....

 

Bring other troubles of this world,

and mix with the pain of your beloved....

Intoxication mounts up, just like

on mixing different drinks together...

 

After we say good-bye this time,

we may only meet in dreams...

Quite like dried up flowers

sometimes turn up in books...
