ishqe ki majazi buwad aabash na-buwad
ishqe ki majāzī buvad ābash na-buvad
chuuñ ātishe nīm-murda tābash na buvad
āshiq bāyad ki sāl-o-māh-o-shab-o-roz
ārām-o-qarār-o-ḳhūr-o-ḳhvābash na-buvad
A love which is profane has no lustre, like half extinguished fire it radiates no heat, lover should be such that in the years, the months, the days and nights (that pass) there should be no rest for him, no comfort, no food and no sleep.
ishqe ki majazi buwad aabash na-buwad
chun aatishe nim-murda tabash na buwad
aashiq bayad ki sal-o-mah-o-shab-o-roz
aaram-o-qarar-o-KHur-o-KHwabash na-buwad
A love which is profane has no lustre, like half extinguished fire it radiates no heat, lover should be such that in the years, the months, the days and nights (that pass) there should be no rest for him, no comfort, no food and no sleep.
