"Ya Tuli Khanjar Maarey"

( By Kashmiri Poet Abdul Ahad nazim )

Yim Zaar vanahuss bar_dar

kar sana su yaar bozay.

Ya tuli khanjar maarey

nataa saanie shabaa rozay..

(I shall narrate at his door step

If only he pays a heed to my tale of woes.

Either he picks up a dagger and kills me,

Or let him come and stay for a  night)

Bulbul chhu behiit ba gul

Mushtaq gomut chhu bilkul

Nai rozi gul nai bulbul

Akh ashq Kathhaa rozey……..

(In this close sitting with the Gul ( Flower ),

The Bulbul is chock-full of hope now .

Alas ! Neither the Gul nor the Bulbul shall there be lastingly ,

But yes the tale of their love shall last for ever .)

Maashooq Kyah Goyee keenaai

Aatash Mein Borthhum Seenai…

Aashiq chhu Kammi Taam Zeenai

Maarun Ma  Ravaa Rozey……………….

(O Beloved ! What Rancor made you

to fill my bosom with this fiery pain ?

When a lover rides high horse ,

Is it Proper to kill him like this ?.)

Muss deutnum kalwaalan

Chhivraavnus Aik Pyaalun

Chhum Doori Doori Zaalan

Kar Sanaa Dawaa sozey

(My Saqi offered me the drink

And just one cup put me off my feet ..

Slipping away and away , he now makes me smolder,

Tell me when shall he send the medication ..)

Kyaa Goas Malaal, Roothum

Sar e Aadnuk Yaar Kroothum

Kathh Dard e na`iye Beuthum

Kar sana Paigaam Soazey………………..

(What dejection led him to get annoyed with me ?

Why My foremost love lies cold now ?

While he picked up this flute of pain ,

I look forward for his communication to arrive)

Maashooq Kaerthhum sitam

Naazim Chhu Praraan ittam’

Chhus Tashnaa Deedar Dittam

Pagaah na yi Dum Rozey …

(“O Beloved ! How many torments more ?

This Naazim has been waiting , Do come now .

Parched am I ,Show me your face now.

May be I do not survive tomorrow for you ….)

( Abdul Ahad Nazim)
