Is Pari-ru Ki Gali Mein Ya Nahaan Ya Aashkaar — Nazeer Akbarabadi
Meaning
Into the lane of this fairy-faced beloved, whether hidden or in open sight, by whatever means possible, O companion, take me there.
Explanation
The poet is pleading with a close companion, someone who sits beside him. He says, take me to the lane where my beloved lives, that fairy-faced one whose beauty is like a vision. He doesn't care how it happens, whether in secret or out in the open, hidden from everyone or seen by all. He is so overcome with longing that the method hardly matters. Just get him there, by any means possible. It captures that desperate, helpless state of a lover who will accept any way, any risk, any shame, simply to be near the one he adores.
