I felt exactly the same way the last time I used the word 'beautiful': that it wasn't enough, but there were really no other words either to describe what I was trying to say.

If you've got access to Shahid's works, The Rebel's Silhouette has all his translations of Faiz. You can also find some of the poems at this page (http://audiopoetry.wordpress.com/category/poet/faiz-ahmed-faiz/), although it doesn't have the best of selections.

P.S.: Oh, I realised now that you looked familiar because I've seen you on the lovely Bohemia's journal. :-)
