ye intizār nahīñ sham.a hai rifāqat kī
is intizār se tanhā.ī ḳhūb-sūrat hai
- Arshad Abdul Hamid
***
It is not just the waiting
It is the evening of the meeting
with my love after a long time
No more loneliness
No more grieving
Waiting for her arrival
feels so wonderful today
I am standing at the gate
for the deplaning passengers
With a dozen fresh roses
in my smiling hands
I am looking in the distance
for my love in the sky blue silk sari
The moment I see her I will
rush to her and shower her with kisses
I have been saving for her
in my heart that is all hers.
