For those of you who still read this blog, this post is just on ghalibs' amazing short ghazal: dil-e-nadaan which has been sung by all these wonderful musicians in their very own unique styles...Happy listening!!!
Dil-e-naadaan tujhe huaa kyaa hai
aaKhir is dard kii davaa kyaa hai
ham hain mushtaaq aur vo bezaar
yaa ilaahii ye maajaraa kyaa hai
main bhii muu.Nh me.n zabaan rakhataa huun
kaash puuchho ki muddaa kyaa hai
jab ki tujh bin nahiin koii maujuud
phir ye ha.ngaamaa, ai Khudaa kyaa hai
hamako unase vafaa kii hai ummiid
jo nahiin jaanate vafaa kyaa hai
ENGLISH TRANSLATION-
Innocent heart, what has happened to you?
Alas, what is the cure to this pain?
We are interested, and they are displeased,
Oh Lord, what is this affair?
I too possess a tongue-
just ask me what I want to say.
Though there is none present without you,
then oh God, what is this noise about?
I expected faith from those
who do not even know what faith is.
