दिल-ए-नादां(Innocent Heart)-Mirza Ghalib


दिल-ए-नादां तुझे हुआ क्या है?
आखिर इस दर्द की दवा क्या है?
Oh! Innocent heart what has happened to you?
what is the cure of this pain?

हम हैं मुश्ताक और वो बेज़ार,
या इलाही यह माजरा क्या है?
I am eager and she unaware,
Oh God! What is happening here?

मै भी मुहँ में ज़बान रखता हूँ,
काश पूछो की मुद्दा क्या है?
I too have a tongue in my mouth,
and can tell what is the matter? If asked.

जब की तुझ बिन नहीं कोई मौजूद,
फिर ये हंगामा-ए-ख़ुदा क्या है?
If you are the only one present,
than why there is a fuss about God?

ये परी-चेहरा लोग कैसे हैं?
गमज़ा-ओ-इशवा-ओ-अदा क्या है?
What these beautiful faces are?
What is all these side glances,airs and coquetry?

शिकन-ए-ज़ुल्फ़-ए-अम्बरी क्यूँ है?
निगाह-ए-चश्म-ए-सुरमा सा क्या है?
Why these fragrant tresses of hair?
Why these eyes with black liners(surma)?

सब्ज़ा-ओ-गुल कहाँ से आए हैं?
अब्र क्या चीज़ है, हवा क्या है?
From where does these plants and flowers come?
What are clouds?What is air?(means who created them)

हमको उनसे वफ़ा की है उम्मीद,
जो नहीं जानते वफ़ा क्या है?
I hopes for faith from her,
who don't even know what is faithfulness?

हाँ भला कर तेरा भला होगा।
और दरवेश की सदा क्या है?
Do good as it brings good.
What else does a friar demands?

जान तुम पर निसार करता हूँ,
मै नहीं जानता दुआ क्या है?
I bestow my life on you,
What else is prayer,I don't know?

मैंने माना की कुछ नहीं ग़ालिब,
मुफ़्त हाथ आए तो बुरा क्या है?
Ghalib admits that he is nothing,
What is wrong in getting him free?

Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti.

रक्षा बंधन - जिसकी बहन नहीं होती। Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti. Raksha Bandhan is an Indian festival of brother-sister love in which sister tie a rakhi (sacred thread) on her brother's hand and wishes for his long-life while brother promises to protect her and take care of her in every possible way. Sadly the country which celebrate such a unique festival reports incidents of Honor Killing and has a high rate of crime against women. Lets pledge to respect each women equally this Raksha Bandhan as a mark of  honor for your sister. In this Hindi Kavita (Poem) I have tried to express what all those devoid of sisters are missing in their life. It is also reminder to all those who have sisters but take these advantages as granted without caring for their sisters.  Happy Raksha Bandhan to all. सूनी कलाई, सूना बचपन, सूना आगन हो जाता है, जिसकी बहन नहीं होती सूना उसका जीवन हो जाता है।  Suni Kalai, Suna Bachpan, Suna Aagan Ho Jata Hai, Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti Su

The Seven Stages Of Love(इश्क़ के सात मक़ाम) Arabic literature and sufi traditions describes seven stages of love and after the movie 'Dedh Ishqiya'  all of us also knew that these seven stages of love are दिलकशी (Attraction),उन्स (Attachment),मोहब्बत (Love),अक़ीदत (Trust/Reverence),इबादत (Worship),जूनून (Madness) and मौत (Death) . At this time of the year ( Valentine Week) when the   Love is in the air    I am sharing my couplets (शेर ) which are based on these seven stages of love written at different times. I hope you will like my effort and share anything related to these seven stages of love at the comment section of this post. The best couplet ( शेर ) will be posted with your name on my Facebook page ( Fans Of Poetry ). 1. दिलकशी (Attraction) : The first stage of love where eyes meet,spark is initiated and the journey of love begins. वो मेरी तरफ देख कर गुज़र गए, ना कुछ कहा ना बात की, ना रुक के मुलाकात की, डाल कर मुझपर बस एक नज़र गुज़र गए, वो

Na Muhn Chupa Ke Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye

न मुहँ छुपा के जीए हम न सर झुका के जीए। (Na Muhn Chupa Ki Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye) -  I am sharing here a ' Qita ' written by Sahir Ludhianvi which is recently used in Hindi movie 'Sanju '. A song inspired from it also penned by Sahir for the film ' Humraaz' (1967 ) staring Sunil Dutt in the lead role. Literal meaning of Qata is ‘separated’. Qata stands for a series of couplets in a ghazal having continuity of thought. A ghazal having one or more Qatas is called Qata-Band ghazal . Qatas also have independent existence comprising at least four lines. In a Qata , the second and fourth lines follow the same rhyming scheme. (Qita meaning from Rekhta ). Here I have tried to translate it.  न मुँह छुपा के जिए हम न सर झुका के जिए,  सितमगरों की नज़र से नज़र मिला के जिए, अब एक रात अगर कम जिए तो कम ही सही,  यही बहुत है कि हम मिशअलें जला के जिए।  Na Muhn Chupa Ke Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye, Sitamgaron Ki Nazar Se Nazar M
