Celebrating
BIRTH ANNIVERSARY
Last Mughal Emperor and contemporary of Ghalib and Zauq.
lagtā nahīñ hai dil mirā ujḌe dayār meñ
kis kī banī hai ālam-e-nā-pā.edār meñ
my heart wanders ill at ease / in this ravaged reign
who has found fruition / in transient terrain
lagta nahin hai dil mera ujDe dayar mein
kis ki bani hai aalam-e-na-paedar mein
my heart wanders ill at ease / in this ravaged reign
who has found fruition / in transient terrain
