[1]. शामे-ग़म उनकी नज़र हो गयी नूर-अफ़्शाँ नुमायाँ हो गयी A sad evening – when she arrived - Her beauty illuminated it [2]. राहे-मंजिल नीम-निगाही पे दास्ताँ-ए-गमे-दिल हो गयी My destiny - lost in her eyes Became the tragedy of life [3]. उसकी जुल्फों की छाँव में शामे-ग़म शबे-माह हो गयी In the shade of her hair Evening of sadness transformed – In a moonlit night [4]. नैरंगिये-हुस्न के तिलिस्म में आह दिल में दफ़न हो गयी In the mysteries of material beauty A sigh of sorrow – buried in heart [5]. बुझे शबे-हिज्रे-चिराग़“राज” नूरे-शम्अ नूरे-सहर हो गयी. Raj, nights of separation ended- Light of lamps transcended to – the yearnings of dawn.
