Sher on Wahm

Suspicion is a mental

condition; it represents an important facet of human personality. It also impacts life in various ways and defines a person’s attitude towards life itself. Poets have explored this mental state in different ways, especially in relation to the lovers who suffer immeasurably once they get suspicious. Here are some verses that project various conditions of suspicion.

ham jaur-parastoñ pe gumāñ tark-e-vafā

ye vahm kahīñ tum ko gunahgār na kar de

hum jaur-paraston pe guman tark-e-wafa ka

ye wahm kahin tum ko gunahgar na kar de

Hasrat Mohani

log be-mehr na hote hoñge

vahm dil ko huā thā shāyad

log be-mehr na hote honge

wahm sa dil ko hua tha shayad

Ada Jafarey

kab tak najāt pā.eñge vahm o yaqīñ se ham

uljhe hue haiñ aaj bhī duniyā o diiñ se ham

kab tak najat paenge wahm o yaqin se hum

uljhe hue hain aaj bhi duniya o din se hum

Saba Akbarabadi

dard ho to davā bhī mumkin hai

vahm kyā davā kare koī

dard ho to dawa bhi mumkin hai

wahm ki kya dawa kare koi

Yagana Changezi

kyā jaane use vahm hai kyā merī taraf se

jo ḳhvāb meñ bhī raat ko tanhā nahīñ aatā

I wonder to what misgivings she is prone

that even in my dreams she's not alone

kya jaane use wahm hai kya meri taraf se

jo KHwab mein bhi raat ko tanha nahin aata

I wonder to what misgivings she is prone

that even in my dreams she's not alone

Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

vahm ye tujh ko ajab hai ai jamāl-e-kam-numā

jaise sab kuchh ho magar diid ke qābil na ho

wahm ye tujh ko ajab hai ai jamal-e-kam-numa

jaise sab kuchh ho magar tu did ke qabil na ho

Muneer Niyazi

na ibtidā ḳhabar hai na intihā ma.alūm

rahā ye vahm ki ham haiñ so vo bhī kyā ma.alūm

TRANSLATION

Neither the beginning, nor the end do I know,

As for this illusion that I am, but do I really know.

Sagar Akbarabadi

na ibtida ki KHabar hai na intiha malum

raha ye wahm ki hum hain so wo bhi kya malum

TRANSLATION

Neither the beginning, nor the end do I know,

As for this illusion that I am, but do I really know.
