ROZ EK SHER (I sure hope the Indian cricket team imbibes this attitude)

अँधेरी रात को यह मोजिज़ा दिखायेंगे हम
चिराग़ गर न जला तो अपना दिल जलायेंगे हम
-अहमद नदीम कासमी

andherii raat ko yah mojizaa dikhaayenge hum
chiraagh gar na jalaa to apnaa dil jalaayenge hum
--Ahmed Nadim Kasami

We shall show this miracle in the dark of the night
If the lamps are not lit, our hearts we shall light

English adaptation by Manish Modi
