جانان مې ستورې د آسمان شو

نه ور ختې شم، نه مې زړه صبر کوينه

My beloved is like a star in the sky now

Neither can I reach him, nor does my heart find peace.

[wordsinpashto]

Beltún:

Separation, parting.

ولے جوړ دې دا یار سترګو کې جنت کړو؟

ولے تریخ دې کړو بيلتون او خوږ وصال؟

دا سپرلي شپه وا - غني خان

•

Wale jor de da yar stargo ke jannat kro?

Wale treekh de kro beltun o khog wisal?

Da sparlee shpa wa - Ghani Khan

Why did you place heavens in my beloved's eyes?

Why have you made separation so bitter and union so sweet?

It was a spring night - Ghani Khan
