QARAR (English Translation)


Turn me into droplets of rain so I dribble the pretty face,
Then coat me with dearness so I wander around the baked face


I adore and love the crimson layer on her lips,
And I seek the company of my friends for I'm world-weary.


O! serenity embrace me! O serenity, embrace me!..

Begone are melancholies as the angel face rears it's head,

And when it subsides back, melancholies rejoin..

I'm 'ghani' for I long for the goblet of beloved's lips

I'm 'maftoon' for I break through sanity for the sake of my love

I'm 'Khatir' for my love is pure

I'm 'Ismail' for I love with my dripping blood

O! serenity embrace me! O serenity, embrace me!
