☆ English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media# 63 ☆
❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃
गर किसी से इश्क करते हो
तो फिर खामोश ही रहना
वरना जरा सी ठेस लगी
कि ये शीशा टूट जाता है….
If you love someone
then keep silence only
Otherwise, just a hurt
and this glass shatters!
❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃
भला ये आईने क्या बयाँ कर सकेंगे
तुम्हारी शख्सियत की खूबियाँ
कभी आके हमारी आँखों से पूछो
कि कितने लाज़वाब हो तुम..!
What narration can these mirrors
ever give of your persona…
Come over sometime and ask my
eyes as to how awesome you are!
❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃
मुझे उस जगह से भी
मोहब्बत हो जाती है
जहाँ बैठ कर एक बार
तुम्हें सोच लेता हूँ…!
I just fall in love
with that place, too
where I sit and think
of you even once…!
❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃
न रुकी वक़्त की गर्दिश
न ही बदला ज़माना ,
पेड़ सूखा तो परिंदों
ने भी ठिकाना बदला…
Neither atrocities of time stopped
nor the world ever changed,
When tree dried up then the
birds also shifted their nests ….!
