Come back to my dreary heart, do come back;
Evening comes too, where are you my bird,
come back to my nest.
...
My songs like wounded birds, faIl
At thy feet, O darling. Pick up all
Those bleeding birds in your breast
Tenderly and let them meet their eternal rest
...
Come forward, holding hands with each other,
doesn't matter that you carry no weapons.
...
My song-bird is tired and deep in slumber
The evening's fallen flowers have a piteous look.
The morning flowers sprang while it sang until silenced by a
hunter's arrow,
...
Oh Arabian wine-girl what sweet wine is this!
I am fully intoxicated and my eyes get red.
With the wine of faith everyone cries, 'Go on drinking.'
...
Lit around, far and near,
The crimson Torch of Islami light
Once again!
...
The bulbul bird is silent in the nargis garden
Listening to the laments of the fallen flower
In spring next to the lovers tomb young poet sobs in solace
...
With the late Monsoon's light clouds wander my mind,
Toward Malabika's home along the Reva's lonely shore.
My mind is propelled by the lazy wind like a light-winged bird.
...
O thou Nightingale of Madina?
What's that ghazal from the lips of thine
Which has made the rose of love
Bloom in the bower desert wild?
...
One who meditates on the prophet,
Has met God in a secret encounter.
