जिस दिलरुबा सूँ दिल कूँ मिरे इत्तिहाद है दीदार उस का मेरी अँखाँ की मुराद है
With that heart-ravishing beloved, my heart has forged a true union; to behold their radiant sight is the sole prayer of my eyes.
My heart has formed a deep bond of unity with that beloved, and beholding them is the ultimate desire of my eyes.
2
रखता है बर में दिलबर-ए-रंगीं ख़याल कूँ मानिंद आरसी के जो साफ़ ए'तिक़ाद है
He whose faith is unclouded and pure, like a mirror's face, / Holds ever the vibrant beloved of thought within his embrace.
One whose faith is as clear and pure as a mirror holds the vibrant beloved of imagination in his bosom.
3
शायद कि दाम-ए-इश्क़ में ताज़ा हुआ है बंद वादे पे गुल-रुख़ाँ के जिसे ए'तिमाद है
He must be newly trapped inside love's snare, / Who still puts faith in what the rose-faced swear.
Whoever still believes the promises of the rose-faced beauties must surely be someone newly trapped in the snare of love.
4
बाक़ी रहेगा जौर-ओ-सितम रोज़-ए-हश्र लग तुझ ज़ुल्फ़ की जफ़ा में निपट इम्तिदाद है
Torment and cruelty shall endure until the Day of Doom; boundless indeed is the stretch in the malice of your dark tresses.
Tyranny and cruelty will endure until the Day of Judgment, as there is immense length and prolongation in the torment of your tresses.
5
मक़्सूद-ए-दिल है उस का ख़याल ऐ 'वली' मुझे ज्यूँ मुझ ज़बाँ पे नाम-ए-मोहम्मद मुराद है
The thought of the Beloved is my heart's true purpose, O Wali, just as the name of Muhammad is the cherished desire upon my tongue.
O Wali, the thought of the Beloved is the true purpose of my heart, just as the name of Muhammad is the cherished desire on my tongue.
