The flames of your beauty

The flames of your beauty

Turns my heart into a piece of butter

That then turns into liquid

And then burns out as well

The flames of your beauty

 

No, do not smile my love

Your teeth may get disgraced

O’ my love cover your lips

Beetle may get confused by your beauty

Taking you for a flower

After seeing your beauty

The miserable Buransh

Is bewildered and has gone crazy

My beloved

Your beauty is a burning flame

 

From where have you got

The beautiful voice of Ghughooti

And these fluent eyes,

The dancing eyes of yours

Give away your heart’s secrets

Break your silence and speak your mind

My beloved

The flames of your beauty

 

Gods are captivated by your beauty

Then humans are only humans

Falcon wishes to see your face

O’ lord after seeing you

It is dim, sunlight of the evening

And sunset has happened

My beloved when facing

The flames of your beauty

 

Love doesn’t happen without reason

Reflection does not appear in muddied water

Whose image is there in your pure heart?

I know, now I recognize it

My beloved

The flames of your beauty
