English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 192
☆☆☆☆☆
गुफ़्तुगू करे हैं अक्सर
उंगलियां ही अब तो..
ज़बां तरसती है
कुछ कहने के लिए..
☆☆
Fingers only chat
these days now ..
The tongue longs
To say something…
☆☆☆☆☆
तेरी बात को यूँही…
खामोशी से मान लेना
ये भी एक अंदाज़ है,
मेरी नाराज़गी का…
☆☆
Just simply accepting
your words quietly…
Is also my way of
expressing resentment…
☆☆☆☆☆
रूबरू होने की तो छोड़िये,
गुफ़्तगू से भी क़तराने लगे हैं,
ग़ुरूर ओढ़ते हैं रिश्ते अब तो,
हैसियत पर अपनी इतराने लगे हैं…
☆☆
Leave apart being face to face,
They’ve begun to avoid talking,
Relations are so conceited now,
Proudly unmask their haughtiness
☆☆☆☆☆
बहुत ही नादान है वो,
ज़रा समझाइए ना उसे,
बात न करने से कभी,
मोहब्बत कम नहीं होती…
☆☆
She is too innocent,
Please explain to her that
Not talking to someone
Doesn’t reduce love for him!
