Текст песни Gulon Mein Rang Bhare (Faiz Ahmed Faiz) с переводом

Gulon mein rang bhare baad-e-naubahaar chale

Chale bhi aao ke gulshan ka kaarobaar chale

Qafas udaas hai yaaro saba se kuchh to kaho

Kahin to bahr-e-Khuda aaj zikr-e-yaar chale

Kabhi to subah tere kunj-e-lab se ho aaghaz

Kabhi to shab sar-e-kaakul se mushakbaar chale

Bara hai dard ka rishta yeh dil gharib sahi

Tumhare naam pe aaenge ghamgusaar chale

Jo hum pe guzri so guzri magar shab-e-hijraan

Hamaare ashk teri aaqbat sanwaar chale

Maqaam Faiz koi raah mein jancha hi nahin

Jo ku-e-yaar se nikle to su-e-daar chale

The empty birdcage

translated by

Mustansir Dalvi

Like the new breeze of spring

that grants blossoms their hue,

come forth love, grant the garden

leave to go about its business.

This birdcage is forlorn.

Call upon the gentle wind, friends

to petition the Lord, if it will,

to speak of my beloved.

Let the dawn, for once, arrive

through the archway of your lips.

Let the dusk spread its perfume

like musk from your tresses.

This impoverished heart

is privileged to suffer

and, hearing your name,

to swell, leaving comfort behind.

What is done is done

but, sundering night,

know that your passing

is adorned with our tears.

So insatiable is my vehemence

to be in your presence, my love,

I bunch up my shirt in a knot

and rip its collar to shreds.

No destination along the way

has any appeal for Faiz,

a step away from his beloved’s street

is a giant leap to the gallows pole.
