हुए हैं राम पीतम के नयन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
कि ज्यूँ फाँदे में आते हैं हिरन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
Slowly, so slowly, the beloved's eyes were tamed and won over, just as wild deer wander into a snare, slowly, so slowly.
The beloved's eyes have slowly been won over and tamed, just as deer slowly walk into a snare.

मिरा दिल मिस्ल परवाने के था मुश्ताक़ जलने का
लगी उस शम्अ सूँ आख़िर लगन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
My heart, just like a moth, was yearning to burn in the flame; bound to that candle at last, devotion slowly came.
My heart was eager to burn just like a moth, and at last, it gradually developed a deep devotion to that candle.

गिरेबाँ सब्र का मत चाक कर ऐ ख़ातिर-ए-मिस्कीं
सुनेगा बात वो शीरीं-बचन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
Rend not the collar of patience, O poor afflicted heart; that sweet-tongued beloved will surely heed your plea, slowly, by and by.
O poor and helpless heart, do not tear the collar of patience; that sweet-spoken beloved will gradually listen to your words.

गुल ओ बुलबुल का गुलशन में ख़लल होवे तो बरजा है
चमन में जब चले वो गुल-बदन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
If turmoil stirs the rose and nightingale within the garden, it is only fair, When that rose-limbed grace strolls through the bower, so softly and so slow.
It is completely justified if the peace of the rose and the nightingale is disrupted in the garden when that rose-bodied beloved strolls through it so slowly.

'वली' सीने में मेरे पंजा-ए-इश्क़-ए-सितमगर ने
किया है चाक दिल का पैरहन आहिस्ता-आहिस्ता
O Wali, deep within my chest, the cruel claw of love / Has torn the garment of the heart, slowly and by degrees.
O Wali, inside my chest, the claw of cruel love has slowly torn the garment of my heart to pieces.
