kyunkar us but se rakhun jaan aziz

Mirza Ghalib

kyunkar us but se rakhun jaan aziz

Mirza Ghalib

kyūñkar us but se rakhūñ jaan aziiz

kyā nahīñ hai mujhe īmān aziiz

how shall I keep life do say, from that idol free?

do you think that my faith and creed are not dear to me?

dil se niklā pe na niklā dil se

hai tire tiir paikān aziiz

though from my heart it did depart, yet it did not free

your arrow's pointed tip you see, is so dear to me

taab laa.e banegī 'ġhālib'

vāqi.a saḳht hai aur jaan aziiz

Gaalib forbearance needs be brought, somehow surely

the incident is grievous and, life is dear to me

kyunkar us but se rakhun jaan aziz

kya nahin hai mujhe iman aziz

how shall I keep life do say, from that idol free?

do you think that my faith and creed are not dear to me?

dil se nikla pe na nikla dil se

hai tere tir ka paikan aziz

though from my heart it did depart, yet it did not free

your arrow's pointed tip you see, is so dear to me

tab lae hi banegi 'ghaalib'

waqia saKHt hai aur jaan aziz

Gaalib forbearance needs be brought, somehow surely

the incident is grievous and, life is dear to me
