करे क्या कि दिल भी तो मजबूर है
ज़मीं सख़्त है आसमाँ दूर है
What can one do, when the heart itself is constrained,
The earth is hard and the sky is far away.

But no one is far from the caravan.

For the sake of which, even blood is acceptable.

If this glass falls, it will surely shatter.

कहीं जो तसल्ली हुआ हो ये दिल
वही बे-क़रारी ब-दस्तूर है
If this heart has found solace anywhere,That same restlessness remains as before.

न देखा कि लोहू थंबा हो कभू
मगर चश्म-ए-ख़ूँ-बार नासूर है
I never saw the blood stop even once,
But the mirror of blood is a chronic sore.
I never saw the blood stop even once, but the mirror of blood is a chronic sore.

तनिक गर्म तू संग-रेज़े को देख
निहाँ उस में भी शोला-ए-तूर है
Though seeing the single, warm strand with you,
I perceive even in it the fire of Mount Tur.
Even upon seeing a single, warm strand with you, I perceive the fire of Mount Tur within it.

बहुत स'ई करिए तो मर रहिए 'मीर'
बस अपना तो इतना ही मक़्दूर है
If you keep trying so much, you will die, Meer,
This much is merely your fate.
If you keep trying too much, you will die, Meer. This much is merely your fate.
