English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 168

☆ Intriguing Messiah… ☆
कैसे हमदर्द हो भला तुम,
किस तरह के मसीहा हो तुम…
दिलपे नश्तर भी लगते हो
तो मरहम के सुकून की तरह…!
☆ ☆
What type of solacer are you,
What kind of messiah are you…!
You pierce a lancet in the heart,
but like a soothing balm only…!!
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
☆ False Pride… ☆
झूठी शान के परिंदे ही
ज्यादा फड़फड़ाते हैं,
बाज की उड़ान में कभी
आवाज़ नहीं होती है…!
☆ ☆
Only the birds of false
pride flutter more,
There’s never any sound
in the eagle’s flight…
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
☆ Spiritual Relationship… ☆
कुछ रिश्ते, तमाम रिश्तों से हसीं हुआ करते हैं
पर उनके नाम नहीं हुआ करते…
वो हर रिश्तों से ज्यादा खूबसूरत होते हैं
मगर सिर्फ रूह से ही महसूस किए जाते हैं…
☆ ☆
Some relations are better than any relations
But they may not have any names…
They are more beautiful than any relations
But can only be felt through the soul..!
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
☆ Explosive Silence ☆
अगर लफ्जों में छुपा होता
है बेहिसाब असर…
तो खामोशी में छुपा होता
है बेंतहा कहर…!
☆ ☆
If there is incalculable impact
hidden in th words…
Then the silence encompasses
an unparalleled devastation…!
