ROZ EK SHER

कहूँ किस से मैं कि क्या है, शबे-ग़म बुरी बला है
मुझे क्या बुरा था मरना, अगर एक बार होता
-ग़ालिब

kahuun kis se main ki kyaa hai, shabe gham burii balaa hai
mujhe kyaa buraa thaa marnaa, agar ek baar hotaa
-Ghalib

What can I say to anyone, the night of separation is terrible
I would not mind death, if I did not have to die over and over
