Ye jo hum hijr mein...

.
ye jo ham hijr mein diivaar-o-dar ko dekhate haiin
kabhii sabaa ko kabhii naamaabar ko dekhate hain
.
vo aaye ghar mein hamaare Khudaa kii kudarat hai
kabhii ham un ko kabhii apane ghar ko dekhate hain
.
nazar lage na kaheen usake dast-o-baazuu ko
ye log kyon mere zaKhm-e-jigar ko dekhate hain
.
tere javaahiir-e-tarf-e-kulah ko kyaa dekhein
ham auj-e-taalaa-e-laal-o-guhar ko dekhate hain
.
Mirza Ghalib
.

Key to Urdu Words: Hijr= separation, dar=door, saba= wind, naamaadar = messenger, dast-o-baazuu=hands & shoulders, javaahiir=jewels, tarf=golden belt, kulah=crown, auj=height/position ,taalaa=luck, laal-o-guhar=diamonds & pearls
