English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 201
☆☆☆☆☆
हो के मायूस यूँ ना
शाम से ढलते रहिए
ज़िंदगी आफ़ताब है
रौशन निकलते रहिए…
☆☆
Being dejected don’t you
ever be the dusking Sun
Life is like the radiant Sun
Keep rising resplendently…!
☆☆☆☆☆
ना इलाज है
ना है दवाई….
ए इश्क तेरे टक्कर
की बला है आई…
☆☆
Neither exists any cure
Nor is there any medicine
O’ love ailment matching you
Has emerged on the earth…!
☆☆☆☆☆
ये जब्र भी देखा है
तारीख की नज़रों ने
लम्हों ने खता की थी
सदियों ने सजा पाई…!
☆☆
Have also seen such constraints
Through the eyes of the time
Moments had committed mistake
But the centuries got punished!
☆☆☆☆☆
हर बार उड़ जाता है
मेरा कागज़ का महल…!
फ़िर भी हवाओं की
आवारगी पसंद है मुझे…
☆☆
Flies away every time
My cardboard palace …!
Still I adore the winds
Loafing around freely…!
