ye hum jo hijr mein diwar-o-dar ko dekhte hain

ye hum jo hijr mein diwar-o-dar ko dekhte hain

MORE BYMirza Ghalib

    ye ham jo hijr meñ dīvār-o-dar ko dekhte haiñ

    kabhī sabā ko kabhī nāma-bar ko dekhte haiñ

    Separation makes me glance, at these my walls and gate

    at times for the breeze, at times, for messenger I wait

    vo aa.e ghar meñ hamāre ḳhudā qudrat hai

    kabhī ham un ko kabhī apne ghar ko dekhte haiñ

    that she has come to my home, is God's divinity

    At times I look at her face, at times my home I see

    nazar lage na kahīñ us ke dast-o-bāzū ko

    ye log kyuuñ mire zaḳhm-e-jigar ko dekhte haiñ

    the evil eye should'nt befall, her hands and arms I pray

    why, at the wounds of my heart, do people stare today

    tire javāhir-e-turf-e-kulah ko kyā dekheñ

    ham auj-e-tāla-e-lāl-o-gohar ko dekhte haiñ

    what do I see these jewels, encrusted on your head

    fate of these pearls and rubies, I regard instead

    ye hum jo hijr mein diwar-o-dar ko dekhte hain

    kabhi saba ko kabhi nama-bar ko dekhte hain

    Separation makes me glance, at these my walls and gate

    at times for the breeze, at times, for messenger I wait

    wo aae ghar mein hamare KHuda ki qudrat hai

    kabhi hum un ko kabhi apne ghar ko dekhte hain

    that she has come to my home, is God's divinity

    At times I look at her face, at times my home I see

    nazar lage na kahin us ke dast-o-bazu ko

    ye log kyun mere zaKHm-e-jigar ko dekhte hain

    the evil eye should'nt befall, her hands and arms I pray

    why, at the wounds of my heart, do people stare today

    tere jawahir-e-turf-e-kulah ko kya dekhen

    hum auj-e-tala-e-lal-o-gohar ko dekhte hain

    what do I see these jewels, encrusted on your head

    fate of these pearls and rubies, I regard instead
