(Bang-e-Dra-097) (نمود صبح) Namood-e-Subah

(Bang-e-Dra-097) Namood-e-Subah

Namood-e-Subah
Morning’s Appearance

Ho Rahi Hai Zair-e-Daman-e-Ufaq Se Aashkar
Subah Yani Dukhtar-e-Doshiza-e-Lail-o-Nahar

From under the horizon’s skirt is appearing
The day and night’s virgin daughter that is dawn

Pa Chuka Fursat Durood-e-Fasl-e-Anjum Se Sipihr
Kisht-e-Khawar Mein Huwa Hai Aftab Aaeena Kaar

The sky has completed benedictions for the star’s crop
The sun has decorated the eastern horizon with mirrors

Aasman Ne Amad-e-Khursheed Ki Pa Kar Khabar
Mehmil-e-Parwaz-e-Shab Bandha Sar-e-Dosh-e-Ghubar

The sky, getting news of the arrival of the sun
Has packed up night’s litter on dust‐cloud’s shoulders

Shaola Khursheed Goya Hasil Iss Khaiti Ka Hai
Boye The Dehqan-e-Gardoon Ne Jo Taron Ke Sharaar

The sun’s flame seems to be the produce of this field
Which was sown by sky’s farmer as sparks of stars

Hai Rawan Najam-e-Sehar, Jaise Ibadat Khane Se
Sub Se Peche Jaye Koi Abid-e-Shab Zinda Dar

The morning star is on the way from the sky retrieving
As the last nightly worshiper from the mosque be retrieving

Kya Saman Hai Jis Tarah Ahista Ahista Koi
Khainchta Hi Miyan Ki Zulmat Se Taigh-e-Aabdar

What a beautiful sight it is as somebody slowly
Draws the bright sword from the sheath’s darkness

Matla-e-Khursheed Mein Muzmar Hai Yun Mazmoon-e-Subah
Jaise Khalwat-Gah-e-Meena Mein Sharab-e-Khushgawar

The dawn’s meaning in the eastern horizon is hidden
As inside the goblet the pleasant wine is hidden

Hai Teh-e-Damaan-e-Baad-e-Ikhtilaat Angaiz-e-Subah
Shaurish-e-Naqoos, Awaz-e-Azan Se Humkinar

The dawn is under the skirt of the friendly breeze
The noise of the conch is mixed with the call of Adhan (Azan)

Jaage Koeel Ki Azan Se Taeeran-e-Naghma Sanj
Hai Tarannum Raiz Qanoon-e-Sehr Ka Taar Taar

All the singing birds woke up by the cuckoo’s call
Every string of dawn’s system has become musical
