Lively mustard blossoming in the field so
Mango buds spring up, other flowers too
The nightingale chants bough to bough
Maiden engaged to beautify self though
Gardener girls bring fragranced flowers
Every one brings in hand lively flowers
At Nizamuddind’s door lay the flowers
He promised to come in love though
It has been years waiting for him
Maiden is busy to beautify self though

Sakal bun (or Saghan bhun) phool rahi sarson,
Sakal bun phool rahi…..
Umbva phutay, tesu phulay, koyal bolay daar daar,
Aur gori karat singaar,
Malaniyan gadhwa lay aayin karson,
Sakal bun phool rahi…..
Tarah tarah kay phool lagaaye,
Lay gadhwa haathan mein aaye.
Nijamudin kay darwazay par,
Aawan keh gaye aashaq rung,
Aur beet gaye barson.
Sakal bun phool rahi sarson.
Which place was it where we were at night?
Everywhere dance in exaltation there at night
What a brow, what a posture, what a beauty
Was heart stirring where we were at night?
We lost in her charm; while foes at guard
We were wordless, where we were at night
Muhammad illumined the place there Khusro
The Al-mighty was Guest of honor, there
Where we were at night
The narrator gave his life away there Khusro
Amazing ambiance where we were at night
blessings for all
