ghazal.. Poet.. Mirza Ghalib.. en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org Singer..Chitra Singh en.wikipedia.org Music...Jagjit Singh. en.wikipedia.org yih na thi hamari qismat kih visal-e-yar hota.. agar aur jite rahte yahi intizar hota.. ( visal- the intimate union of the beloved was not in my fate. had i lived longer,the pain of waiting would have been worse than dying.) kahun kis se main kih kya hai shab-e-gham buri bala hai.. mujhe kya bura tha marna, agar ek bar hota.. (with whom should i share this bad monster-the painful evening of separation from the beloved. death would have been better if it was only once..) koi mere dil se puchhe tere tir-e-nim kash ko.. yih khalish kahan se hoti jo jigar ke par hota.. (some one ask my heart about your half drawn arrow--half hearted glance, how much would i miss that sweet pain if it pierced the liver instead.) yih masail-e-tasavvuf yih tera bayan Ghalib.. tujhe ham wali samajhte jo na bada khvar hota.. (these aphorisms of mysticism and your explanations, Ghalib, we would have considered you a saint had you not been a wine drinker..)
