ग़ालिब न कर हुज़ूर में तू बार बार अर्ज़

 

غالبؔ نہ کر حضور میں تو بار بار عرض

ظاہر ہے تیرا حال سب ان پر کہے بغیر

ग़ालिब  न कर हुज़ूर में तू  बार बार अर्ज़ 

ज़ाहिर है तेरा हाल सुब उन पर कहे बगैर  

Ghalib! Don’t repeatedly make request in her presence
your state is very much evident to her

Explanation: This Urdu couplet expresses the idea that someone's absence is felt and
talked about in social gatherings, even though they are not physically present. The speaker is observing that this person doesn't attend these gatherings often, but their situation is being discussed as if they were there.
