Hi...
ग़म-ए-हस्ती का 'असद' किस से हो जुज़ मर्ग इलाज शम्अ हर रंग में जलती है सहर होते तक
[Life is suffering, and there is no cure for it except death. A Lamp burns in every hue till dawn is there Death extinguishes all types of burning/suffering that life brings as morning extinguishes every colored flame of the lamp.]
ग़म-ए-हस्ती - worries of life जुज़ - besides, except, other than मर्ग - death शम्अ - lamp सहर - dawn, daybreak
