who knows / kaun jaanay

who knows
when we are dead
will meet some houri
in a paradise
or dust will blendÖ
who knows

prophets, sages
spent their lives
dusting off the truth
or did they
throw us in a whirlpool
of delusions and doubts

whateverÖ
i, of faith believe
will meet you again
---be it fiery or
heavenly place
will meet you again

kaun jaanay
khair
mur jaaíooN ga jub maiN
jannat, koíee hoor milay gi
yaa khaak naachay gi khaak say
kaun janay

paiíghaamíbírouN daaínishíwarouN nay
kiya hum kinaar aaígíhi say bar bar
ya phaink diya tha hum ko
tazabízoob kay andhay bhaníwur maiN

phir bhi meri jaaN
yaqeen hay tou milay gi
phir tou milay gi
aaag maiN
khush aabad maiN
shish jehat maiN kay
jahaN bhi ga'aye hum
tu milay gi
tu phir milay gi
