Ghazal
गर कुछ हो दर्द आईना यूँ चर्ख़-ए-ज़िश्त में
This ghazal explores the pain and the mirror of love, reflecting the transience of life and the agony of separation. The poet suggests that everything will turn to ashes and dust in the fire of passion, and this restless heart will bring suffering even into heaven. Ultimately, accepting his wanderlust, the poet concludes that he will no longer endure this struggle and will simply sit with his heart.

गर कुछ हो दर्द आईना यूँ चर्ख़-ए-ज़िश्त में
इन सूरतों को सिर्फ़ करे ख़ाक-ओ-ख़िश्त में
If anything painful happens, in the mirror of life's wheel,
These faces will only be reduced to dust and ashes.
If any pain occurs, in the mirror of the wheel of life, these faces will only be reduced to dust and ashes.

रखता है सोज़-ए-इश्क़ से दोज़ख़ में रोज़-ओ-शब
ले जाएगा ये सोख़्ता-दिल क्या बहिश्त में
With the agony of love, it keeps me in hell day and night,
Will this burning heart take me to paradise?
With the agony of love, it keeps me in hell day and night; will this burning heart take me to paradise?

आसूदा क्यूँके हूँ मैं कि मानिंद-ए-गर्द-बाद
आवारगी तमाम है मेरी सरिश्त में
Why am I so innocent, like a fluttering bird,
For my very existence is a wandering journey.
Why am I so innocent, like a fluttering bird, because my entire existence is a wandering journey.

कब तक ख़राब सई-ए-तवाफ़-ए-हरम रहूँ
दिल को उठा के बैठ रहूँगा कुनिश्त में
How long shall I persist in futile rounds of the Kaaba's shrine?I'll take my heart and make a home within the temple's confine.
How long should I remain a poor/unsuccessful pilgrim performing the circumambulation (Tawaaf) of the Holy Kaaba, and keep my heart seated in discomfort?

मातम के हूँ ज़मीन पे ख़िर्मन तो क्या अजब
होता है नील चर्ख़ की उस सब्ज़ किश्त में
My mourning on the earth, what a strange spectacle it is,
My mourning on the earth, and what a strange spectacle it is, with the blue chakra in that green chariot.

सरमस्त हम हैं आँखों के देखे से यार की
कब ये नशा है दुख़्तर-ए-रज़ तुझ पलिश्त में
We are intoxicated by the mere sight of the beloved, O my friend; what intoxication is this that resides within your very being?
We are intoxicated by the mere sight of the beloved, O my friend; what intoxication is this that resides within your very being?

रिंदों के तईं हमेशा मलामत करे है तू
आजाइयो न शैख़ कहीं हश्त-बहिश्त में
You always criticize the wanderers, O beloved,
Do not come, O Sheikh, anywhere in this world of hell and heaven.
You always criticize the wanderers, O beloved; do not come, O Sheikh, anywhere in this world of hell and heaven.

नामे को चाक कर के करे नामा-बर को क़त्ल
क्या ये लिखा था 'मीर' मरी सर-नविश्त में
To write the name, and kill the name-bearer,
Was this what you wrote, 'Meer,' in my fate's scripture?
To write the name, and kill the name-bearer, was this what you wrote, 'Meer,' in my fate's scripture?
