The Shifting Shadows

دمی ڈیٖنٛٹھٕم شبنم پٮؠوان

Dami deenthim shabnam pewaan

A moment ago, I saw the gentle dew falling

دمی ڈیٖنٛٹھٕم پٮؠوان سوٗر

Dami deenthim pewaan soor

The next moment, I saw nothing but falling ash

دمی ڈیٖنٛٹھٕم گَٹہٕ پَچھ ہٮؠوان

Dami deenthim gate pachh hewaan

A moment ago, the world was swallowed by the dark, moonless fortnight

دمی ڈیٖنٛٹھٕم پھۄلہٕ وُن نوٗر

Dami deenthim phoaliwun noor

The next moment, I witnessed the blossoming of radiant light
