He writes 'Aur bhi dukh hai zamane mein muhabbat ke siva Raahatein aur bhi hai wasl ki raahat ke siva', there are but pains aplenty beyond love, there are many that give solace beyond union. We get a glimpse of Faiz's turbulent state of mind as he quotes a Persian poet Nizami 'Dil-e-bufro-khatm, jaan-e-khareedun' I have sold my heart and bought a soul.

My gaze returns there as well, what can I do? Ab bhi dilkash hai tera husn, magar kya keeje? Your beauty is still alluring, but what can I do? Aur bhi dukh hai zamaane mein muhabbat ke siva There are many other sorrows in this world besides the sorrow of love Raahatein aur bhi hain wasl ki raahat ke siva There are many other delights besides the delight of union Mujhse pehli si muhabbat mere mehboob na maang My love, don’t ask me to love you as I loved you before FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/SongfestIndia/ FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/songfestindia/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LOVE & SUPPORT! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digitally Powered by One Digital Entertainment [https://www.facebook.com/onedigitalentertainment] [http://www.onedigitalentertainment.com]
