Kabhi Ae Haqeeqat - Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan traduction en anglais

Kabhi Ae Haqeeqat

Kabhi Ae Haqiqat-e-Muntazir
Nazar Aa Libas-e-Majaz Mein

Ke Hazaron Sajde Tadap Rahe Hain
Meri Jabeen-e-Niaz Mein

Tarb Ashnaye Kharosh Ho
Tu Nawa Hai Mehram-e-Gosh Ho

Woh Surood Kya Ke Chupa Huwa Ho
Sakoot-e-Parda-e-Saaz Mein

Tu Bacha Bacha Ke Na Rakh Isse
Tera Aaeena Hai Woh Aaeena

Keh Shikast Ho To Aziz Tar Hai
Nigah-e-Aaeena Saaz Mein

Dam-e-Tof Karmak-e-Shama Ne
Ye Kaha Ke Woh Asar-e-Kuhan

Na Teri Hikayat-e-Souz Mein
Na Meri Hadees-e-Gudaz Mein

Na Kaheen Jahan Mein Aman Mili
Jo Amaan Mili To Kahan Mili

Mere Jurm-e-Khana Kharab Ko
Tere Afuw-e-Banda Nawaz Mein

Na Woh Ishq Mein Raheen Garmiyaan
Na Woh Husn Mein Raheen Shaukiyan

Na Woh Ghaznavi Mein Tarap Rahi
Na Kham Hai Zulf-e-Ayaaz Mein

Jo Mein Sar Basajda Huwa Kabhi
To Zameen Se Aane Lagi Sada

Tera Dil To Hai Sanam Ashna
Tujhe Kya Mile Ga Namaz Mein

Kabhi Ae Haqeeqat

O Truth, who are my destiny,
Please appear in the guise of illusion,

Because thousands of prostrations await
In my foreheads of humility.

Be an intimate of lamentation,
Be a song that lends an ear,

What melody is it that you hide
Within the silence of instruments?

Do not keep it from me any longer,
Your mirror is the mirror,

A mirror is more precious when it is broken
In the glance of instruments.

In the moment of departure, the light of the candle said,
That there is no sign of the past

In your story of suffering,
Nor in my tale of melting.

Peace was not found anywhere in the world,
And if peace was found, where was it found?

May my unforgivable sin
Be forgiven in your boundless mercy.

There is no longer any warmth in my love,
And no longer any pleasure in my beauty.

Mahmud of Ghazni is no longer yearning,
Nor is the lock of Ayaz's hair still beautiful.

When I bowed my head in prayer,
I heard a voice from the earth,

Your heart, O beloved, is familiar with God.
What will you gain from prayer?
