MANY POETS.. MANY COUPLETS

बहुत नज़दीक आती जा रही हो। 
बिछड़ने का इरादा कर लिया क्या? 
  जान एलिया 
You are coming far too near. 
Have you planned to part my dear.


Main akela hi chala tha janib e manzil magar, 

Log saath aate gaye aur caravan banta gaya. 

Well, I had started alone towards the goal;

People came to make the caravan as a whole.


Tum mukhatib bhi ho, qareeb bhi ho.

 Tum ko dekhen ki tum se baat karen...' Firaq'

You are addressing me from so near. 

Should I talk or look at you dear?.....

लोग क्यों फेंक रहे हैं इन्हें शीशों की तरफ?

ना तराशीदा सनम कब किसी पत्थर में न था!...... रौनक़ नईम

Each stone is but an uncarved idol !

Why are these thrown on glasspanes?
