English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 161
☆☆☆☆☆
पहले लोग फना होते थे
उनकी रूहें भटकती थीं,
आजकल रूहें मारा करतीं हैं
और लोग भटकते रहते हैं…!
☆☆
Earlier people used to die
their souls would wander-
Now souls keep dying and
people wander around…!
☆☆☆☆☆
☆ Knoweth not why…☆
क्यूँ तुम्हारे नाम को सुनते ही
मेरी सांस महकने लगती है,
एहसास नशे का होता है और
हर फ़िक्र बहकने लगती है…
☆☆
Why my breaths become fragrant
moment I hear your name,
Feeling is of inebriation and
every worry starts to delude…
☆☆☆☆☆
☆ Sharing…☆
माना कि सबको खुशियाँ
ना दे सके हम…
पर कुछ गम तो उनके बाँट लिए
जिससे भी हम मिले…!
☆☆
Agreed that I may not have
given happiness to everyone…
But I did share some of the
sorrows of whoever I met..!
☆☆☆☆☆
☆ God’s Status… ☆
ऐ फनकार अगर बना
सके मेरी तस्वीर में
मेरे दर्द भी तो तुझे ऊपर
वाले का दर्जा दूंगा…!
☆☆
O’ Artist, if you can paint
my pains in my picture…
Then I shall grant you
the status of the God..!
