Israar-e-hayaat ~ The Secret of Life

[Translation in brackets... for people who have problems understanding urdu... ]
Israar-e-hayaat ki nahakat hoon main,
(I am the fragrance of the secret of life)
Aagosh-e-tassavur ki taabeer hoon main,
(I am the realization of imagination)
Qissa-e-ulfat se bahot parey hoon main,
(I am detached from the story of love)
Kabhi Zaakir hoon, kabhi kaafir hoon main,
(At times I am a believer, at times a non-believer)
Ehsaas hoon, aab-e-chashm hoon main,
(I am emotions, I am tears)
Bejaan zeest hoon, bechain wajood hoon main,
(I am a lifeless life, I am an impateint existence)
Benaam, bezabaan, beparwah tanhayi hoon main,
(I am a nameless, speechless, indifferent lonliness)
Muqaddar se aagaah, ek zinda mazaar hoon main.
(Aware of my fate, I am a living grave).
