Maana Ke Tum Haseen Ho Ahal-E-Shabab Ho

maana ke tum haseen ho, ahl-e-shabaab ho
is ka to kuchh jawaab do kyun lajawaab ho

That you are the epitome of loveliness
And are the one worthy of being young
So I admit and declare
But pray, O please answer me
Why is it that you are beyond comparison

tum mere warq-e-zindagi ke pehle harf ho
kismet likhi hai jisme tumhi wo kitaab ho

You are the very first word, the first expression
On the pages of (the chronicle of) my life
You are the diary in which
My fortunes are recorded

parwaah nahin zamaanaa kahe tum ko sangdil
meri nazar mein jaan-e-jahaan aftaab ho

Maybe others may label you
As a stone hearted person
(Makes no difference to me)
But for me, O breath of my life
You are the shining bright sun

ban ke ghzal ke sher tum aavo khayaal mein
main hoon kayaam, aur meri tum sharaab ho
