ROZ EK SHER

क्या नज़ाकत है कि आरिज़ उनके नीले पड़ गये
हमने तो बोसा लिया था ख़्वाब में तस्वीर का
-वली

kyaa nazaakat hai ki aariz unke niile pad gaye
humne to bosaa liyaa thaa khvaab mein tasviir kaa
-Vali

What delicacy! Her cheeks are swollen, even though
I had only kissed her photograph in my dreams!
