Lughat e Gharib???

What does this mean in Allama’s shair:

Tu Arab Ho Ya Ajam Ho, Tera ‘LA ILAHA ILLAH’
Lughat-e-Ghareeb, Jab Tak Tera Dil Na De Gawahi

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

bay ma’ni kay alfaz maiN use howa hay Idhar :khumar:

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

But what does Lughat Ghareeb? Is there any Lughat e Ameer as well?

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

Ghareeb-ul-diyyar meaning bay ghar so there is no word of ameer-ul-diyaar but Ameer ul Shahr

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

In persian, it seems that they add two three words with a preposition to make it meaningful :)

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

:hmm: I howzat is right.

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

gharib e lughat hota to tab ye meaning banta "a word not in dictionary" bay ma'ni
leken lafz to lugaht e ghareeb hai

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

yes, Howzat is right. be-ma'nii alfaaz...

Ghareeb = muflis, pardesi

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

Same thing as in:

Tere zameer pe jab tak na ho nazool e kitaab
Girah e Kusha hai na Raazi, na Sahib e Kashaaf

and

Shoq tera agar na ho meri namaaz ka imaam
mera qayaam bhi hijaab, mera sajood bhi hijaab

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

esi ghazal ma ye shair bhi hai, yahan rumi se gila kar rahy hain ? :hmmm:

Na Diya Nishan-e-Manzil Mujhe Ae Hakeem Tu Ne
Mujhe Kya Gila Ho Tujh Se, Tu Na Reh Nasheen Na Rahi

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

Why Rumi was not Rah Nasheen Na Rahi of the same path as of Iqbal?

Re: Lughat e Gharib???

maybe the reason is he was not impressed by khan-qahi tariq as he beg to differ but respect his freedom in another shair of same ghazal.
