The poet claims to be like this tongue from head to toe. Par ye kahaaN majaal 5 jo kuchh guftugu 6 kareN 1.head to toe 2.like, similar to 3.candle 4.even if 5.daring, courage 6.conversationĬandle wax melts and hangs down forming a shape similar to the tongue. Sar-ta-qadam 1 zabaan haiN juN 2 sham’a 3 go 4 ke hum faiz borrows this she’r in a Ghazal posted on this site under the title – teri guftagu kareN. Were I to squeeze the robe, then the collected liquid will be pure enough for angels to do their ablutions. He admonishes the shaiKh – don’t go by this superficiality. He has been drinking and the hem of his robe has gotten wet. The poet/sufi uses drinking itself as a tool to make fun of orthodoxy. In orthodox tradition drinking wine is forbidden and considered a transgression.
Only the pure divine is left.ĭaaman 2 nichoR 3 deN to farishte 4 vuzu 5 kareN 1.wetness of the hem of the robe 2.hem of the robe 3.squeeze 4.angels 5.ritual cleansing/ablutions before prayer/namaaz All reflections/manifestations are erased. But when the poet/sufi comes before this mirror and goes into a sufi trance (absorbed in love of the divine) then he does not see anything but the divine itself. In the sufi tradition all of creation is a mirror because it reflects the beauty of the divine beloved. Hum aaiine ke saamne jab aa ke hu 3 kareN 1.moment 2.many reflections/manifestations 3.sufi chant as in allah-hu MiT jaayeN ek aan 1 meN kasrat-numaaiyaaN 2 Other than me, in this ocean of pearls, no shell will bloomĪll the world holds a heart, there is none like be-dil Ghair-e man zin qulzum-e gauhar habaabi gul na-kardĪalami saahab-dil ast, amma kasi bedil na shud Sufi shaa’er mirza be-dil also uses this very effectively … He has become be-dil, without heart, which is a great merit because heart/dil is lustful. At the mystical level the poet/sufi has gone past the stage of desire. How then, can he ask heavens to fulfil any desire. Superficially it means that the poet/lover has lost his heart and is no longer able to have any desires. Hum tujh se kis havas 1 ki falak 2 justuju 3 kareNĭil hi nahiN raha hai ke kuchh aarzu 4 kareN 1.desire, longing, lust 2.sky, heaven 3.search, ask, demand 4.desire, wish It is a pleasure to read them side by side and enjoy the similarities and nuances. They combined romantic imagery with mystic/sufiyaana thought effectively. All three can be considered early pillars/foundations of urdu verse.
