Tainting The Void Canvas

12. ●Amore●

Nukta-chin hai gham-e-dil us ko sunae na bane

Kya bane baat jahan baat banae na bane

(I cannot pour my heart to her, for she does criticize

How can I get my goal when I, cant even verbalize)

Main bulata to hun us ko magar ai jazba-e-dil

Uss pe ban jae kuchh aisi ki bin aae na bane

(I do call out to her, my feelings, but what can I say

Something happens and she cant help but stay away)

Khel samjha hai kahin chhoD na de bhul na jae

Kash yun bhi ho ki bin mere satae na bane

(She should not forsake forget me ,for it is no play

Without my teasing, if only, she found it hard to stay)

Ghair phirta hai liye yun tere KHat ko ki agar

Koi puchhe ki ye kya hai to chhupae na bane

(My rival roams, your message tucked so by his side

If someone were to ask what's this, he's unable to hide)

Iss nazakat ka bura ho wo bhale hain to kya

Hath aawen to unhen hath lagae na bane

(Her daintiness be damned, tho noble, she may be as much

E'en when I manage to get hold, I'm unable to touch)

Kah sake kaun ki ye jalwagari kis ki hai

Parda chhoda hai wo us ne ki uThae na bane

(Who can fathom who it is behind the veil concealed

Its been dropped in such a way it cannot be unveiled)

Maut ki rah na dekhun ki bin aae na rahe

Tum ko chahun ki na aao to bulae na bane

(I do not wait for death for it will surely accrue

If I wish that you don't come, I can't call out to you)

Bojh wo sar se gira hai ki uThae na uThe

Kaam wo aan paDa hai ki banae na bane

(The burden that's fallen on my head I cannot unseat

A task has now befallen me that I cannot complete )

Ishq par zor nahin hai, ye wo aatish 'ghaalib'

Ki lagae na lage aur bujhae na bane
