न पहुँचते कभी उस तक शिकायत के छींटे,
तो फिर कहाँ से मिलें हमको दाद के छींटे?
— Amrut Ghayal
Meaning
If the splashes of complaint never reach him, then how can we ever find the splashes of justice?
Explanation
This couplet speaks to the profound frustration of injustice. The poet questions where one can find justice or recognition ('daad ke chhinte') if the initial complaint or cry for help ('shikayat ke chhinte') never reaches the right ears. It’s a powerful commentary on the systemic failure to hear the marginalized voice. It reminds us that simply having a grievance is not enough; it must be heard to matter.
