a sweet little romantic nazm from daag dehlvi.
nawab mirza khan (1831 – 1905), was an indian poet famous for his urdu ghazals. he wrote poems and ghazals under the ‘takhallus’ 'daag dehlvi' (daag= an urdu noun meaning stain, grief and taint while dehlvi= belonging to or from delhi).
ajab apanaa haal hotaa jo visaal-e-yaar hotaa
kabhii jaan sadaqe hotii kabhii dil nisaar hotaa
na mazaa hai dushmanii me.n na hai lutf dostii me.n
koii Gair Gair hotaa koii yaar yaar hotaa
ye mazaa thaa dillagii kaa ke baraabar aag lagatii
na tumhe.n qaraar hotaa na hame.n qaraar hotaa
tere waade par sitamagar abhii aur sabr karate
agar apanii zindagii kaa hame.n aitabaar hotaa

are you not going to give any translations? I think i get it but am not sure
translations might be tough - not equipped to do justice to poetry. will try and put in the meanings at least, perhaps that would help.
