Hi all,
I would really like a translation of the ghazal “Sarkati Jaye Hai Rukh Se” by Jagjit Singh.
Here are the lyrics, from musicindiaonline.com:
sarakatii jaaye hai ruKh se naqaab aahistaaaahistaa
nikalataa aa rahaa hai aaftaab aahistaaaahistaa
jawaaN hone lage jab vo to ham se kar liyaa pardaa
hayaa yakalaKht aayii aur shabaab aahistaaaahistaa
shabefurkat kaa jaagaa huuN farishton ab to sone do
kabhii fursat men kar lenaa hisaab aahistaaaahistaa
savaalevasl par unako uduu kaa Khauf hai itanaa
vo honThon se dete hain javaab aahistaa aahistaa
hamaare aur tumhaare pyar men bas fark hai itanaa
idhar to jaldii jaldii hai udhar aahistaa aahistaa
vo bedardii se sar kaaTe “ameer” aur main kahuuN un se
huzuur aahistaa aahistaa, janaab aahistaaaahistaa
Thanks!
