Rahiye Ab Aisi Jagah - Mirza Ghalib

रहिये अब ऐसी जगह।  ( Stay At Such A Place ) - Mirza Ghalib

'Stay at such a place' is a three couplet Ghazal by Mirza Ghalib. It's a sad poem (ghazal) written while leaving his home due to non-payment of dues in his early days. He was feeling lonely,deserted and wants to go away from everything and everybody. He is expressing a tramp like feeling. The last sher ( couplet ) is added by me which is also conveying same feelings. I have tried to translate it here:

रहिये अब ऐसी जगह चलकर जहाँ कोई न हो,

हम-सुखन कोई न हो और हम-ज़ुबां कोई न हो। 

Rahiye ab aisi jagah chalkar jahan koi na ho,

Hum-sukhan koi na ho aur hum-zubaan koi na ho.

Go and stay at such a place where there is no one else,

Where no one knows our language and what we tells.

बे-दर-ओ-दिवार सा एक घर बनाया चाहिए,

कोई हमसाया न हो और पासबां कोई न हो। 

Be-dar-o-diwaar sa ek ghar banaya chahiye,

Koi humsaya na ho aur paasban koi na ho.

A house should be built without doors and walls,

Where there is no partner and not any defender at all.

 

पड़िये ग़र बीमार तो कोई न हो तीमारदार,

और ग़र मर जाएँ तो नोहाकवां कोई न हो। 

Padiye gar bimaar to koi na ho timaardaar,

Aur gar mar jaayein to nohakawan koi na ho.

Where there is no one to care if ever falls ill,

and no one to mourn when become still (dead).

हश्र का मेरे जब कभी हो किस्सा बयां,

ज़ेरो-ज़बर कोई न हो और सबर (सब्र) कोई न हो। - सिफ़र 

Hasr ka mere jab kabhi ho kissa bayan,

Zairo-zabar koi na ho aur sabar (sabr) koi na ho.

If ever someone recite story of my final condition,

There should be no correction, nor any patience.

Here is the video of this song from the movie : Mirza Ghalib sung by Suraiya.

Har Ek Baat Pe Kehte Ho -Ghalib

हर एक बात पे कहते हो।(At Everything What I say)- Mirza Ghalib

हर एक बात पे कहते हो तुम की तू क्या है,

तुम्ही कहो ये अंदाज़-ऐ-गुफ़्तगू क्या है।
At everything I say you say that who you are?
Tell me what style of conversation is this?

न शोले में ये करिश्मा न बर्क़ में ये अदा,

कोई बताओ की वो शोख़-ऐ-तुन्दा खूं क्या है।
Neither the flame has this miracle,nor the lightning this grace,
Someone tell me what angry behavior is this?

ये रश्क़ है की वो होता है हमसुखन तुमसे,

वरना खौफ़-ऐ-बदामोज़ी-ऐ-अदू क्या है।
My envy is that he converses with you,
Otherwise what fear of misleading is this?

चिपक रहा है बदन पर लहू से पैराहन,

हमारी जेब को अब हाज़त-ऐ-रफ़ू क्या है।
My cloths are sticking with my body with blood,
Now,what need to darn the collar is this?

जला है जिस्म जहाँ दिल भी जल गया होगा,
कुरेदते हो जो अब राख़-ऐ-जुस्तुजू क्या है।
Heart must have been burned where the body has burned,
What desire of poking the ashes is this?

रगों में दौड़ते फिरने के हम नहीं कायल,

जब आँख से ही न टपके तो फ़िर लहू क्या है।
We don't believe in running through the veins,
When it does not drip from eyes than what blood is this?

वो चीज़ जिसके लिए हमको हो बहिश्त अज़ीज़,
सिवा ऐ बादा-ऐ-गुलफ़ाम-ऐ-मुश्कबू क्या है।
The thing for which heaven is dear to us,
Except pink delicate musk scented wine nothing is this?

पियूँ शराब अगर ख़ुम भी देख लूँ दो चार,
यह शीशा-ओ-कदा-ओ-कूज़ा-ओ-सुबू क्या है।
I would drink wine if I see a few wine barrels,
What glass and pitcher and goblet is this?

रही न ताक़त-ऐ-गुफ्तार और अगर हो भी,
तो किस उम्मीद पे कहिये की आरज़ू क्या है।
The strength to speak has gone and even if existed,
Than on what expectation would one say what desire is this?

बना है शाह का मुसाहिब फिर है इतराता,
वगरना शहर में 'ग़ालिब'की आबरू क्या है।
Having become the king's associate he is acting smart,
Otherwise 'Ghalib' in the city what dignity is this?

For explanation and understanding :What Ghalib says in Har Ek Baat Pe Kehte Ho
