Tabi.at In Dinon Begana-e-gham Hoti Jaati Hai — Jigar Moradabadi
तबीअत इन दिनों बेगाना-ए-ग़म होती जाती है
मिरे हिस्से की गोया हर ख़ुशी कम होती जाती है
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
These days my heart is becoming a stranger to sorrow, as if every bit of happiness meant for me is gradually fading away.
Explanation
Here, the poet captures a haunting state of emotional numbness. At first glance, being a stranger to sadness seems like relief, but when the heart stops feeling grief, it loses the ability to feel true joy as well. It is a poignant realization that sorrow is what kept the soul tender and alive, and without it, life's share of happiness quietly slips away into apathy.
