Khuda Kare Ki Haqiqat Men Zindagi Ban Jaa.e — Jigar Moradabadi
ख़ुदा करे कि हक़ीक़त में ज़िंदगी बन जाए
वो ज़िंदगी जो ज़बाँ तक ही पाई जाती है
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
May God grant that the life which is confined merely to words and speech truly turns into reality.
Explanation
Here, the poet touches upon the poignant gap between the ideals we express and the life we actually experience. So often, our deepest values and grandest ideas about living exist merely as sweet words on our tongues. It is a heartfelt prayer wishing that this beautiful, imagined life stops being just conversation and transforms into a living, breathing reality.
