Dam-e-akhir Tasavvur Hai Kis Pari-vash Ka — Dagh Dehlvi
दम-ए-अख़ीर तसव्वुर है किस परी-वश का
कि मेरी रूह भी बन कर परी निकलती है
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
At my final breath, whose fairy-like beloved's thought is on my mind, that my soul too departs having turned into a fairy?
Explanation
In this evocative verse, the poet reflects on the transformative grace of love at the threshold of death. The dying lover's heart is so deeply consumed by the vision of an ethereal, fairy-like beloved that the soul itself mirrors that beauty. Instead of departing in agony, the soul takes flight as a radiant fairy, turning the final moment into a sublime act of transcendence.
