shab-e-visal hai gul kar do in charaghon ko
shab-e-visāl hai gul kar do in charāġhoñ ko
ḳhushī kī bazm meñ kyā kaam jalne vāloñ kā
Interpretation:
Rekhta AI
The speaker asks for the lamps to be put out because the night of union needs no artificial light—intimacy prefers darkness. “Burning ones” are the lovers who suffer in longing; their inner fire clashes with the mood of celebration. The couplet carries a sharp irony: joy makes the grief-stricken feel unnecessary and pushed aside.
shab-e-visal hai gul kar do in charaghon ko
KHushi ki bazm mein kya kaam jalne walon ka
