These Moments

मुद्दतों के बाद यह जो वक़्त मुकम्मल हुआ हे आज
इन्हें दिल के कश्मकश में ना बहने दो तुम
ना रोको इस सैलाब को
ना बाँधो उमरते अरमानो को
फिर ना जाने वक़्त हमपे मेहरबाँ हो ना हो

After years of yearnings we have accost this moment
let it not slip away in some untoward perturbations’ ravine
don’t stop the storm
don’t arrest the desires,
for we don’t know
whether this time will come again
