i LOVE this Ghalib’s Ghazal…specially this one from the movie “Mirza Ghalib”…Ghamza o ashva o adaa kia hai?**

Dil hii to hai na sang-o-Khisht dard se bhar na aaye kyuuN
**
roenge ham hazaar baar koii hamen sataaye kyuuN

sang : stone
Khisht :brick

dair nahiin haram nahiin dar nahiin aastaaN nahiin
baiThe hain rahaguzar pe ham Gair hamen uThaaye kyuuN

dair : temple
haram : mosque
*dar : gate *
aastaaN : doorstep

qaid-e-hayaat-o-band-e-Gam asl men donon ek hain
maut se pahale aadamii Gam se najaat paaye kyuuN

q*aid-e-hayaat : prison of life *
band-e-Gam : bindings/chains of sorrow
*najaat : freedom/liberation
