ندانم دل شہید جلوہ کیست
English title: I know not who dazzled and killed this heart,
ندانم دل شہید جلوہ کیستنصیب او قرار یک نفس نیست
I know not who dazzled and killed this heart, No rest since then is destined to this part.
میں نہیں جانتا کہ میرا دل کس کے جلوے کی گواہی دیتا ہے کہ اس کی قسمت میں ایک پل کا سکون نہیں ہے ۔
بہ صحرا بردمش افسردہ تر گشتکنار آب جوئی زار بگریست
I took him to desert which pained him more. On a brook side too he be wept to the core.
میں دل کو صحرا میں لے گیا اور زیادہ افسردہ ہو ا ۔ میں اسے نہر کے کنارے لے آیا یہاں بھی وہ بہت زیادہ رویا ہے ۔
