hum ko un se wafa ki hai ummid

Mirza Ghalib

hum ko un se wafa ki hai ummid

Mirza Ghalib

MORE BYMirza Ghalib

    ham ko un se vafā hai ummīd

    jo nahīñ jānte vafā kyā hai

    From her I hope for constancy

    who knows it not, to my dismay

    Interpretation: Rekhta AI

    The poet mocks his own naivety in expecting loyalty from a beloved who is completely oblivious to the concept. It highlights a tragic irony where the lover's intense expectations are directed at someone incapable of fulfilling them, either due to innocence or cruel indifference.
