चोरी में दिल की वो हुनर कर गया
देखते ही आँखों में घर कर गया
With a theft, it stole the heart's skill,
Entering the eyes, it made a dwelling still.
With a theft, it stole the heart's skill and made a dwelling in the eyes just by looking.

दहर में मैं ख़ाक-बसर ही रहा
उम्र को इस तौर बसर कर गया
In the dust I spent my life, I spent my age in this manner.
I spent my life in the dust, and I passed my age in this manner.

दिल नहीं है मंज़िल-ए-सीना में अब
याँ से वो बेचारा सफ़र कर गया
Neither the heart nor the destination of the chest remains now,
From here, that poor soul has departed on a journey.
Neither the heart nor the destination of the chest remains now; from here, that poor soul has departed on a journey.

हैफ़ जो वो नुस्ख़ा-ए-दिल के उपर
सरसरी सी एक नज़र कर गया
Just like that, he cast a glance upon the recipe of the heart,
Just like that, he cast a glance upon the recipe of the heart.

किस को मिरे हाल से थी आगही
नाला-ए-शब सब को ख़बर कर गया
Whom did my state ignite with fire,
The stream of night revealed to everyone.
Whom did my state ignite with fire; the stream of night revealed it to everyone.

गो न चला ता-मिज़ा-ए-तीर-ए-निगह
अपने जिगर से तू गुज़र कर गया
Oh, don't walk this path of the arrow of your gaze,
You passed through my heart and went away.
The Shayar says, 'Don't let the intoxication (or magic) of your gaze's arrow affect me, because you passed through my heart and left.'

मज्लिस-ए-आफ़ाक़ में परवाना साँ
'मीर' भी शाम अपनी सहर कर गया
In the gathering of the horizons, the lamp, the moth, the night itself, even 'Mir', has transformed into dawn.
In the gathering of the horizons, the lamp, the moth, the night itself, even the Shayar 'Mir' has transformed his own evening into dawn.
