The Beloved( Janan) By Ghani Khan- An English Translation:

.


Two love-lit eyes, awash with hundreds of colours,

Drenched my world with colours and lights.

They made me taste, in this very world, draughts of the heavenly wine,

 Life strode into dreams, and my world got awash with dreams.

Scoops of an armful moonlight, you strew in the dust at my feet,

Guided me to my Lord aloft secrets of love.

You let tumble mounds of stars into my arms,

Hearken I songs of houries in the music of your melodies,

Guided me to my Lord in the deep secrets of Love.
