तुम्हारे ख़त में नया एक सलाम किस का था। Tumhare Khat Mein Naya Ik Salam Kiska Tha (Whose New Greetings Were There In Your Letter) - Dagh Dehelvi
Dagh Dehelvi is showing his jealousy in this ghazal about her beloved's attention shifting to someone else. Her mannerism,behavior and a name in her letter raised his doubts which he has shared in this ghazal. He is almost sure that she is flirting with her enemy and ignoring her thus he is reminding her of his love and her love vows. I have translated this ghazal here and hope you all will enjoy this. For detail interpretation of this ghazal see : Behind Tumhare Khat Mein Ik Naya Salam.
