☆ English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of  Anonymous litterateur of Social Media# 72☆

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

ऐ रब, दोस्तों को भी नवाज़

दे  ये दर्द की दौलत

उनके साथ नाइंसाफी हो

ये मुझे कतई  मंजूर नहीं…!

O Lord, do bless my friends

with the wealth of pain….

Any injustice done to them

Is not acceptable to me….!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

मुझ को है ये आरज़ू कि

वो उठाएँ नक़ाब ख़ुद

उन को ये इंतिज़ार है कि

हम इल्तिज़ा करें कोई…

I’ve this desire that she

should lift the veil herself

While she awaits that

I must request for it.

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

कुछ तो तुम्हारी

निगाहें काफिर थीं

फिर कुछ मुझे भी

तो खराब होना था…!

As such, your eyes

were a little infidel

Then, I had to

get spoilt, too…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

वो ना मिलते तो

ही अच्छा होता

बेकार में ही मोहब्बत

से नफरत हो गई…!

It’d have been much better

if we handn’t met at all….

Avoidably, developed a

hatred towards the love!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

खामोशियाँ कभी

बेवजह नहीं होती,

कुछ दर्द आवाज़

छीन लिया करते हैं…

Never  unfounded

are  the  silences

Some  pains  just

strangulate the voice..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

फिर कुछ यूँ  हुआ कि

हम जुदा हो गए…,

हम बंदगी  में रहे…

और वो खुदा हो गए…

Then something such

happened that we parted….

I remained in devout prayers

And, they became the God….!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

जिसके लफ्जों में हमें

अपना अक्स मिलता हो,

बड़े नसीबों से ही ऐसा

कोई शख्स मिलता है…!

In whose words reflects

our own image,

Such a person is found

with great luck only…..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

कबूल करते हैं कि हमें

फुर्सत नहीं मिलती…

तुम्हें जब याद करते हैं तो

ज़माने को भी भुला देते हैं..!

I  do  confess that

I don’t get the time…

When I remember you,

I even forget the world!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

हम कहाँ तुमसे अपने

सवालों के जवाब मांगते हैं,

सिर्फ अपनी आँखों के

हिस्से के ख्वाब मांगते हैं…

When have I asked you

to answer my questions,

I only asked for the part of

my dreams in your eyes!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

ये बिखरी-बिखरी ज़ुल्फें

ये उखड़ी-उखड़ी सांसें

तेरी आँखें बयां कर रही हैं

बीती रात का फसाना…!

These scattered swirls,

these unsettled breaths..

Your eyes are narrating

the testimony of last night..

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

कितनी अज़ीब है ये

मेरे अंदर की तन्हाई

कितने अपने हैं पर याद

हमेशा तुम ही आते हो…

How strange is this

loneliness inside me…

So many loved ones are there

but remember do I you only..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ 

अंजान हो अगर तो

गुजर क्यों नहीं जाते,

पहचान रहे हो तो

ठहर क्यों नहीं जाते….!

If you are a stranger, then

why don’t you go away,

If you recognize me, then

why don’t you stop….!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

बेवजह भारी बोझ

दिल पे मत रखिये,

ज़िन्दगी एक जंग है

हँसते-गाते जारी रखिये…

Don’t you unnecessarily

burden your heart heavily

If  life  is  a  battle,  then

keep fighting jubilantly..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

यूँ तो हम अपने…

आप में गुम थे,

मगर सच तो ये है…

वहाँ भी तुम थे…!

Well, as such I was

lost in myself only,

But the truth is that

you were there too…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

गर ढूँढना है तो सिर्फ चैन

और सुकून ढूँढ़िये, जनाब

कब किसी की  तमन्नाएं

और जरूरतें पूरी हुईं  हैं…

If you’ve to find then just try

finding peace and solace, Sir

When have anyone’s needs

and desires ever been fulfilled…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

हर वक़्त नया चेहरा

हर वक़्त नया वजूद,

आदमी ने आईने को

हैरत में डाल दिया है…

A new face all the time,

A new entity every time,

The man has surprised

even  the  mirror…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

रहने दीजिए कुछ लकीरें

माथे  पे  परेशानी  की…

ग़र हमेशा मुस्कुराएँगे आप तो

नज़र लग जाएगी ज़माने की

Let there be a few worry

lines on your forehead

If you keep smiling always,

World may cast an evil eye…

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

फिसलती ही चली गई,

इक पल, रुकी भी नहीं,

अब जा के महसूस हुआ,

रेत के मानिंद है जिंदगी…

Not for a moment, did it

stop, just kept slipping,

Now I realised that why

life is  like sand  only…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

एक सुकूँ सा मिलता है

तुझे सोचने से भी,

फिर कैसे ये  कह दूँ  कि

मेरा इश्क़ बेवजह सा है…

I get a feeling of solace

even by thinking of you,

Then how can I say that

my love is meaningless…

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

कई बार कुछ झूठ

इतने बड़े हो जाते हैं…

कि वो हकीकत को

छोटा  कर  देते  हैं… !!

Sometimes some

lies become so big…

That they even

dwarf  the  truth..!!

उन दरख़्तों से भी

नाता जोड़िए

जिन दरख़्तों का

कोई साया नहीं…

Connect with

those trees too

The trees that

have no shadow…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

रात  भर,  रात  को,

एक रात जगाया जाए,

रात को मालूम तो हो,

कि हम पे गुजरती क्या है…

One night, keep the night

awake all night, at night

Just let the night know

what  we  go  through…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

वो ज़ुबाँ से अल्फाजों

को ढूँढ़ते  रह गए…

और हम आँखों से

पूरी गज़ल कह गए…

She kept searching for the

words from my mouth…

and here I recited the

entire ghazal with the eyes!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

तभी तक पूछे जाओगे

जब तक काम आओगे…

बस चिरागों के जलते ही

तीलियां बुझा दी जाती हैं…

People will appreciate you

only till you’re useful to them

Matchsticks are extinguished

as soon as the lamps are lit….!
