Bana Hai Hamesha Ye Dil Baagh O Sahra — Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
This heart has always turned into a garden and a desert waste, just as spring was arriving and just as autumn was setting in.
Explanation
The poet captures the restless, fragile nature of the human heart through two contrasting landscapes: the lush garden ('baagh') of joy and the barren desert ('sahra') of grief. Before spring can fully arrive and allow happiness to blossom, the melancholy of autumn begins to creep in. It speaks to that poignant human condition where joy and sorrow overlap so closely that our peace always feels incomplete.
