Ek taraf uska ghar ek taraf maikada

I started listening to Pankaj Udhas when I was about 7-8 years old. That time I was only able to enjoy the music and the way he sang it, but later on it was the lyrics which got me. One of my favorites has been:

Aye Gham-e-Zindagi kuch to de mashwara
Ek taraf uska ghar ek taraf maikada

I liked the music earlier, but now I understand and like the lyrics as well. This has to be one of the best Ghazals related to Sharab (Wine).

    I absolutely love this tune.
    I get snatches of what it means and would be eternally grateful if you could translate the lyrics into english, french or german.

    Thanks
