No delight in happiness

No delight in happiness; no gloom in gloominess
Weird in realm, merely lost in thy remembrance
Neither engaged in own-self nor fascinated around
I’m ecstatic, adore you, and your remembrance
Ask the stars about my life’s deeds and policies
I keep awake at night and think of thy fantasies
What does anyone or the world around know?
Nothing matters for me around; but only you
The world is waiting for a downhearted song
Bahzad is inaudibly absorbed in beloved’s gong
…………………………………..
Ab hai khushi khusi mein na gham hai malaal mein
Duniya se kho gaya hoon tumhaare khayaal mein
Mujh ko na apna hosh na duniya ka hosh hai
baitha hoon mast ho k tumhare khayaal mein
Taron se pooch lo meri rudaad-e-zindagi
Raton ko jaagta hoon tumhaare khayaal mein
Duniya ko ilm kya hai zamaane ko kya khabar
Duniya bhula chukaa hoon tumhare khayaal mein
Duniya khadi hai muntazir-e-naghma-e-alam
‘Behzad’ chup khade hain kisi ke khayal mein
~ Hazrat Behzad Lakhnawi
blessings for all
