Vo Musibat Suni Nahin Jaati — Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
The calamity that I am witnessing myself is so severe that one cannot even bear to hear about it.
Explanation
The poet creates a poignant contrast between merely hearing about pain and having to witness or endure it firsthand. He reflects that the calamity unfolding before his very eyes is so terrifying and overwhelming that listeners cannot even bear to hear it spoken aloud. It is a quiet yet heartbreaking lament—reminding us that when just the telling of sorrow is unbearable to the world, the one living through it must be carrying an unimaginable burden.
