ab to unki yaad bhi aati nahin
ab to un kī yaad bhī aatī nahīñ
kitnī tanhā ho ga.iiñ tanhā.iyāñ
nowadays even her thoughts do not intrude
see how forlorn and lonely is my solitude
Interpretation:
Rekhta AI
The couplet captures emotional numbness after separation: the beloved’s memory, once constant, has faded. This is not relief but a harsher stage of grief—an inner emptiness where even the companion of sorrow (loneliness) disappears. By personifying “loneliness,” the poet shows isolation intensifying into a cold, echoing void.

kitni tanha ho gain tanhaiyan
nowadays even her thoughts do not intrude
see how forlorn and lonely is my solitude
