तेरे शहर में तरदीद-ए-रवां देखा है,
हुजूम में मैंने बियाबां देखा है
[तरदीद = contradictions; रवां = continuous ; हुजूम = crowd ; बियाबां = emptiness]
In your city, I see never ending contradictions
I find the crowd empty
शोर-ए-पैहम से गोश बर-आवाज़ है
खलकत-ए-शहर को निहां देखा है
[शोर-ए-पैहम = never ending noise; गोश = ear; बर-आवाज़ = without sound; खलकत-ए-शहर = denizens of the city;निहां = hidden ]
My ears are unable to hear the continuous noise
and I cannot see the denizens of this city
इमारतें बड़ी हैं तेरे शहर में
और सड़कों पे नादारों का मकाँ देखा है
[नादारों = poors, मकाँ = house]
Your city has tall buildings,
but I find poors living on the roads
रोज़ तमाज़त-ए-कार जलाती है
रातों में फ़िक्र-ए-धुंआ देखा है
[रोज़ = daily; तमाज़त-ए-कार = heat of work; फ़िक्र-ए- धुंआ = smoke of worry]
every day the work burns
and every night is engulfed in worries
मुफलिसों का मजमा लगा है यहाँ
और उमारा का भी कारवां देखा है
[मुफलिसों = poors; मजमा = gathering; उमारा = rich ; कारवां = caravan]
Here there is a gathering of poors
but also I see caravan of mammons
मुख़्तसर फासला है लोगों के बीच
फिर भी सहरा उनके दरमियां देखा है
[मुख़्तसर = small ; फासला = distance; सहरा= desert ; दरमियां = inbetween]
There is a small distances between people
but I see a big chasm between them
पर जब से मैंने तुम्हें देखा है,
मैंने दोज़ख में इरम का फजां देखा है
[दोज़ख = hell ; इरम = heaven ; फजां = weather]
but ever since I have seen you
I feel a heaven in this hell
'प्रशांत'
