मक्का गया मदीना गया कर्बला गया
जैसा गया था वैसा ही चल फिर के आ गया
I went to Mecca, I went to Medina, I went to Karbala,
Just as I left, I returned after wandering and roaming.
I went to Mecca, I went to Medina, and I went to Karbala; just as I left, I returned after wandering and roaming.

देखा हो कुछ उस आमद-ओ-शुद में तो मैं कहूँ
ख़ुद गुम हुआ हूँ बात की तह अब जो पा गया
If I saw something in that arrival and departure, I would say,
I am lost in the depths of the conversation I have now found.
If I saw something in that arrival and departure, I would say that I am now lost in the depths of the conversation I have found.

कपड़े गले के मेरे न हों आब-दीदा क्यूँ
मानिंद-ए-अब्र दीदा-ए-तर अब तो छा गया
Why should my neck be covered by clothes, O beloved? Your vision, like a rain cloud, has now spread over me.
Why should my neck be covered with clothes, O beloved? Your vision, like a rain cloud, has now spread over me.

जाँ-सोज़ आह ओ नाला समझता नहीं हूँ मैं
यक शो'ला मेरे दिल से उठा था जला गया
O heart-burning sigh, oh river, I do not understand you,
A flame that arose from my heart, it has burned me.
O heart-burning sigh, oh river, I do not understand you; this flame that rose from my heart, it has burned me.

वो मुझ से भागता ही फिरा किब्र-ओ-नाज़ से
जूँ जूँ नियाज़ कर के मैं उस से लगा गया
He kept running away from me with arrogance and pride,
But I cornered him and made him accept my favor.

जोर-ए-सिपहर-ए-दूँ से बुरा हाल था बहुत
मैं शर्म-ए-ना-कसी से ज़मीं में समा गया
The condition was worse than the morning's glow,
I was buried in the shame of having no show.
The condition was worse than the morning's glow; I was buried by the shame of having no presence.

देखा जो राह जाते तबख़्तुर के साथ उसे
फिर मुझ शिकस्ता-पा से न इक-दम रहा गया
When I saw him going with the Tabkstur, I was instantly overcome with sorrow.

बैठा तो बोरिए के तईं सर पे रख के 'मीर'
सफ़ किस अदब से हम फ़ुक़रा की उठा गया
When I sat, placing the boree on my head, 'Mir',
With what grace did you lift the banner of the wandering?
When I sat, placing the boree on my head, the Shayar questioned with what grace I had lifted the banner of the wandering.
