Just Bliss

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
