English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 137
☆☆☆☆☆
रहती जड़ता केवल तब तक ही,
जब तक रहे यथास्थिति में समय-काल
सतत श्रम प्रयासों को अपनाने से
होता विकसित युग, पीढ़ी व देशकाल…!
☆ ☆
The inertia lasts only as long as the
time-period remains in the status quo
Adoption of continuous toilsome efforts,
develops the era, generation and country…!
☆☆☆☆☆
कोई हम सा मिले
तो हमें बताना…
हम खुद आयेंगे
उसे सलाम करने..!
☆ ☆
Let me know if you
meet someone like me…
I shall personally
come to salute him..!
☆☆☆☆☆
मेरी इबादत तेरे से रूबरू
होने की मोहताज नहीं,
हम तो तेरा ख़्वाबों में
ही सजदा कर लेते हैं..!
☆ ☆
My prayer never depends
on your being face to face
I just prostrate before you
in my dreams only..!
☆☆☆☆☆
भूलें हैं रफ़्ता-रफ़्ता
मुद्दतों में उन्हें हम
किस्तों में ख़ुदकुशी का
मजा कोई हम से पूछे..!
☆ ☆
Slowly slowly only in a long
time I have forgotten her
Someone must ask me about
fun of suicide in installments
