Shab-e-furqat UTha UTha Kar Sar — Dagh Dehlvi
शब-ए-फ़ुर्क़त उठा उठा कर सर
सुब्ह-ए-इशरत को देखता हूँ मैं
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
During the night of separation, I raise my head again and again to look toward the dawn of happiness and joy.
Explanation
This couplet paints a tender picture of the restless agony experienced during a night of separation. Like someone lying sick with longing, the poet repeatedly lifts his head from the pillow to see if the joyous dawn of reunion has finally broken. It reflects that fragile space between despair and hope, where the pain of waiting is bearable only because of the anticipation of light.
