Apna Zamana Aap Banate Hain Ahl-e-dil — Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
People of the heart create their own era themselves; we are not among those who are molded or shaped by the times.
Explanation
This couplet is a stirring declaration of individuality and spiritual resilience. The poet speaks for the 'ahl-e-dil'—those who live guided by deep emotion, conscience, and passion—refusing to be passively molded by the prevailing winds of society. Rather than letting circumstances dictate their identity, such free souls leave their own enduring imprint on time, shaping their era on their own terms.
