मरना है तो दुनिया
में कोई तमाशा कर जा
जीना है तो एक गोशा-ए-तन्हाई में दिल
माने की तरह लफ्ज़ के सीने में उतर जा
Marna Hai To Duniya me koi tamasha kr ja
Jeena Hai to Goshaye Tanhaai me Dil
Maani Ki Tarah Lafz Ke Seene Me Utar Ja
If you
have to die, become a spectacle in the world,
If you want to
live, find solace in solitude,
Let the words
sink into your chest like their meanings.
This is a beautiful Urdu couplet by some famous poet.
The first line suggests that if one has to die, one should try to do something remarkable that makes you stand out in the world. The second line advises that if one wants to truly live, one should find comfort in solitude and introspection. The third line suggests that we should take the meanings of words to heart and let them deeply influence us.
