Samajh To Lijiye Kahne To Dijiye Matlab — Dagh Dehlvi
समझ तो लीजिए कहने तो दीजिए मतलब
बयाँ से पहले ही मुझ पर छुरी निकलती है
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
At least understand and let me state my meaning; even before I can explain anything, a knife is drawn against me.
Explanation
This couplet captures the tender helplessness of a lover facing a partner who is far too quick to judge and react. The vivid image of a knife being drawn before a single word is spoken playfully highlights the beloved's fiery temper and instant suspicion. It's an exasperated yet affectionate plea: at least give me a chance to explain my heart before you sentence me!
