You seem to gather no belief of my intensity, why not come see me burning, come already! Don’t prolong distaste making excuses mundane. Such scrutiny? Oh oppressor, come already!

Whether in the distance or the proximity, ecstasy I sample in both individually. My love, go for thousand times, if you must but for million times beloved, come already!

It is in the custom of mosques and temples, to love thyself, but to chant divine entity. In abode of wine, only trance has a presence, be sensible – like a somber one, come already!

You’re pure, so is pure the heart of yours, totally uncalled for is your earned enmity. Now that you didn’t make it to my funeral, path of my shrine seeks you, come already!

Should you desire to be blessed as well, march in to a world of the vanquishing (Ghalib). Come and join the ones intoxicated, let’s sit along, Oh grounded one, come already!

– Dedicated to the lovers who believe not on intensity of love by their beloved.

mere shauq da nahi aitbaar tainu aaja vekh mera intezaar a ja avein laran bahanane labhna en ki tu sochna en sitamgaar a ja

bhavein hizar te bhavein visaal hove wakho wakh dohan diyan lazztan ne mere sohnia ja hazaar wari aaja pyaria te lakh waar a ja…

eh rivaaz e masjidan mandiran da uthe hastiyan te khud-parastiyan ne mai-khaane wich mastiyan hi mastiyan ne hosh kar banke hoshiyaar a ja…

tu sada te tera dil sada tainu avein raqeeb qurah paya je tu mere janaaze te nahi aya raah takdae teri mazaar a ja…

sukhi wasna je tu chauna e mere ‘Ghaliba’ es jahaan andar aaja rindan di bazm wich a beh ja ethe baithde ne khaaksaar a ja…

– Punjabi lyrics translated by Sufi Ghulam Mustafa Tabassum. Original lyrics were penned by Mirza Ghalib in Persian
