Athhuss Vuchhtumm Raekhunn Kyaa Chhumm Me Taqseer

Baa Gomutt Hang ta Mangay Kyaazi Chhuss Geer

Baa Yodhvaai Gaash sadiyunn Hundh Rachhaan Aass

Amma Veyokhtuy Banovukh Myon Tasveer.

( Arjan Dev Majboor )

Just look at the fate lines in my hand ,

And let me know my fault Love !

Tell me why this pain and suffering !

Having preserved the Light for centuries ,

Why i myself am now being put in this darkness?

Aaesh Saaet Chhalnaai Paadh Kaashirye

Greeshminie vaariye vaatukh naa

Majboor Praraan Chhuye Lo-lariye

Valla roodh jarriye kar Thahraav.

( Arjan Dev Majboor )

Kashmiris shall wash thy feet with their pent up tears ,

Shall you not visit their abodes in hot plains ?

This “Majboor ’’ too is waiting for you in his abode ,

Come rain ! Come from our valley ,

And Stay with us for some time.
