Samjho Patthar Ki Tum Lakir Use — Dagh Dehlvi
समझो पत्थर की तुम लकीर उसे
जो हमारी ज़बान से निकला
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
Consider whatever has been spoken from my mouth to be etched in stone, firm and unchangeable.
Explanation
In this couplet, the poet invokes the timeless metaphor of words etched in stone to assert the absolute weight and integrity of their promise. Spoken words are not treated as fleeting breath, but as an unbreakable vow of honor, love, or conviction that time itself cannot erode. It reflects a quiet and steadfast dignity, reassuring the listener that a promise once given is eternal and unshakeable.
