could you please let me know who has translated the poem–i’m referring to Jeeya’s translation, posted in 2009. I would like to use this translation in my writing, and would like to give credit to the translator.
So please get back to me, Jeeya or the moderator.

Great work! Keep it up all of you!

I m speechless !! Thanks for the specific meanings of particular Urdu adab (literature) phrases or words. I am glad I finally found the whole poem other than ghazal sung by Nayyara Noor.

Thank you for posting the poem with meaning. For some time now, I have wanted to understand its full meaning and you have made it possible. Please post more of Faiz’s kalaam if you can.
Thank you.

Thanks for sharing.

Do you know if anyone (female) other than Nayyara Noor has sung this ghazal?

….breathless!!

Let’s go today to the bazaar in chains

The tearful eye, the nosiy spirit, are not enough.
The accusaion of hidden love is not enough.
Let’s go today to the bazaar in chains
Let’s go with hands waving, intoxicated, dancing.
Let’s go with dust on our heads, blood on our sleeves,
Let’s go to the city our love lives in
Everyone is watching
The city’s ruler, the general populace
The unhappy morning,
The day with no purpose
The arrow of accusaion
The stone of abuse
Who else beside us is their intimate friend?
Who now in our beloved’s city is still pure?
Who now is worthy of the executioner’s hand?
Pick up the burden of the heart, let us go heartbroken ones.
We are the ones who have to be murdered again, my friends

I must say, Nayarra Noor has done justice to this awesome piece of Faiz…

Can someone give a complete illustration of the nazm. All the words are translated but I want to know the contextual meaning as faiz shahab meant it.
