Dard Minnat Kashe-dawa Na Hua Main Na Acha Hua, Bura Na Quotes

Dard minnat kashe-dawa na hua
main na acha hua, bura na hua..

Hui muddat ki Ghalib mar gaya par yaad aata hai,
woh har ek baat pe kehna ke yoon hota to kya hota..

Ye kambakht hichkiyan thamti kyun nahin;
Ye kis ke zehan mein aaker atak gaye hain hum.

Dard minnat kashe-dawa na hua
main na acha hua, bura na hua..

Jahan tera naqsh-e-qadam dekhte hain
Khyaaba khyaaba erum dekhte hain

Where impression of your presence, I see
Visions of heavens all around, I see


Tere sarv-qaamat say ik qadd-e-aadam
Qayamat ke fitne ko kam dekhte hain

Your beautiful tall stature makes even
The turmoil of the end of days look shorter, in my view


Tamasha ke aye mahv-e-aa-eena daari
Tujhe kis tamanna se hum dekhte hain

Amusing it is, that you are absorbed in your reflection
While, with such a longing, I see you


Bana kar faqeeron ka hum bhays Ghalib
Tamasha-e ahl-e-karam dekhte hain

In a begger's guise Ghalib
Spectacle of generocity, I see

Humko to duniya mein koi bewafa na mila,
kami jo paayi to apni mohabbat mein paayi..
- Ghalib

Ishrat-e qatra hai dariya mein fana ho jana
dard ka hudd se guzarna hai dawa ho jana..
