Heartache

Love, and the wound it leaves.

Ye na thi hamaari ke hotaAgar aur jeete rehte yahi hota
It was never in my fortune to be one with the beloved.Had I lived on, there would only have been this same waiting.
Unke dekhe se jo aa jaati hai munh par Wo samajhte hain ke ka haal achha hai
The glow that rises to my face at the sight of them,they take as a sign the patient is getting better.
Kitni ho tum, kitna hoon mainKya hai ke hum log mar jayenge
How lovely you are, how full of wanting I am.What cruelty, that we are people, and we will die.
-e-yaar mein insaan hoon main ya ki Har baras aa ke rula jaati hai barsaat mujhe
In the beloved's absence, am I a man, or a raincloud myself?Every year the rains return and leave me weeping.
aage aati thi pe hansiab kisi baat par nahin aati
Before, laughter used to come at the heart's own condition,now it does not come at anything at all.
bandagi mein bhi wo o hain ki hamulTe phir aae dar-e- agar wa na hua
So free and self-regarding are we, even in our worship, thatwe turned back from the door of the Kaaba when it did not open for us
