ROZ EK SHER

In memory of Bharat Ratna Ustad Bismillah Khan

कल जहाँ बसती थीं खुशियाँ आज है मातम वहाँ
वक़्त लाया था बहारें वक़्त लाया है ख़िज़ां
-साहिर लुधियानवी

kal jahaan basatii thiin khushiyaan aaj ha maatam vahaan
vaqt laayaa thaa bahaaren vaqt laayaa hai khizaan
--Sahir Ludhianavi

Today there is grieving where once there was joy
Time brings in spring and time has brought winter
