despite confession / b'jooz aitraaf

despite confession
despite confessions aplenty
--multifaceted is your attraction
--ethereal the touch
--closeness reinterpreted continually
my amore, you too should comprehend
for enhanced pleasures
necessary are moments of separation

shall beg leave now
have to travel far and away
to re-live in a house left vacant

in bitter cold nights
when sub-zero winds creep
if your memory stirs
shall recite tales of your warmth
to strange glowing faces
and yes, i promise
if ever i pass by here...

b'jooz aitraaf
b'jooz aitraaf hazar'haa
kay teri kashshish kay zaawiyay buhat
teri l'mus ka jadoo ghair mar'aie
tu'nay jo n'aye mafhoom diyay
hum aahangi ko...
yeh maan meri jaan
kay lootf e sehr angeezi kay li'aye
zaroori haiN lamhaat-e-firaaq
ijazat chahouN ga ab maiN
jana hay do'or bo'hut do'or mujhay
ik khali ghar ko phir basana hay mujhay

shiddat e ayyam e sard maiN
gar yaad teri jo sata'aie gi
na maanoos ajnabi chehrouN ko
suna'ooN ga ik jadoo bhari kahani
aur haan yeh waadah raha
kay phir is rah say jo goozra maiN...
