دیکھنے والے کو دنیا ہے
سراپا تصویر
گو ہے آئینے میں عکس رخِ
دلبر الٹا
"The viewer sees a world entirely
in the image
But, the beloved's face is inverted in the mirror"
देखने वाले को दुनिया है सरापा तस्वीर
गो है आईने में अक्स रुख-ए-दिलबर उल्टा
This couplet suggests that while the
world we see in an image is perceived as real, the image of the beloved in the
mirror is distorted or reversed. This could be interpreted to mean that love
can sometimes change our perception of reality, making us see things in a way
that may not be accurate.
اے شیخ، آدمی کے بھی درجے
ہیں مختلف
انسان ہیں ضرور مگر واجبی

Oh Sheikh, different are the degrees
of human beings,
But you, due to obligation, are lost
in self-indulgence
This couplet suggests that while there may be varying degrees of social status among human beings, it is important to remember our obligations and not become lost in self-indulgence. The reference to the Sheikh suggests that even those in positions of religious authority can become distracted by worldly pleasures.
अरे शेख, इंसानों के विभिन्न
श्रेणियाँ होती हैं,
लेकिन आप, अपनी ज़िम्मेदारी के
कारण, स्वार्थपरायण
हो गए हैं।
The Urdu couplet "Oh Sheikh, different are the degrees of human beings, but you, due to obligation, are lost in self-indulgence" suggests that there are different levels or degrees of social status among human beings, but the Sheikh being addressed in the couplet is so caught up in self-indulgence that he has lost sight of his obligations. The couplet implies that those in positions of power or authority, such as religious leaders, may become preoccupied with their own pleasures and neglect their responsibilities. It serves as a reminder that even those in high positions should remain
عرض طلب پر اس کی چپ سے ظاہر
ہے انکار مگر
شاید وہ کچھ سوچ رہا ہو،
ایسا بھی ہوسکتا ہے

His silence in response to my request
may indicate refusal,
But perhaps he is thinking about something;
that is also possible.
This couplet suggests that although someone may appear to be refusing a request based on their silence, it is also possible that they are considering the request and may still come around to accepting it.
मेरी अनुरोध के जवाब में उसकी चुप्पी अस्वीकृति
का पता देती है,
लेकिन संभव है कि वह कुछ सोच रहा हो; यह भी संभव है।
The couplet can be interpreted to mean
that one should not be quick to assume that someone's silence indicates a
negative response. It is possible that the person is taking their time to
consider the request and may still agree to it. It is a reminder to not jump to
conclusions and to give others the benefit of the doubt.
