ROZ EK SHER

प्यार करनेवालों का सबसे दोस्ताना है
रात भी पुरानी है, चाँद भी पुराना है
~ राना ज़ेबा 

پیار کرنوالون کا سبسه دوستاانا های
رات بهی پرانی های، چند بهی پرانا های
~ رانا زبا


pyaar karnevaalon kaa sabse dostaanaa hai 

raat bhii puraanii hai, chaand bhii puraanaa hai
~ Rana Zeba

Those who are in love, are friends with everybody
The night and the moon, both have been friends for a long time.

ROZ EK SHER

वो कौन हैं जिन्हें तौबा की मिल गयी फ़ुर्सत 
हमें गुनाह भी करने को ज़िन्दगी कम है 
~आनन्द नारायण मुल्ला 

وو کون ہیں جنہیں توبہ کی مل گیی فرسٹ
ہمیں گناہ بھی کرنے کو زندگی کم ہے
~ آنند ناران ملا

vo kaun hain jinhen taubaa kii mil gayii fursat 
hamein gunaah bhii karne ko zindagii kam hai 
~Anand Narayan Mulla 

Who has found time to repent their sins? 
I find this life too short to even commit a sin!
