Sher on Wada

Human beings can be

distinguished on account of the skills they have. Everyone has one skill or the other which may be perfected with care and practice. This ultimately becomes the hallmark of one’s personality. Here are some verses that would help you see human skill, art, and craftsmanship in multiple ways.

vafā kareñge nibāheñge baat māneñge

tumheñ bhī yaad hai kuchh ye kalām kis thā

wafa karenge nibahenge baat manenge

tumhein bhi yaad hai kuchh ye kalam kis ka tha

Dagh Dehlvi

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

hum ko un se wafa ki hai ummid

jo nahin jaante wafa kya hai

From her I hope for constancy

who knows it not, to my dismay

Mirza Ghalib

na koī va.ada na koī yaqīñ na koī umiid

magar hameñ to tirā intizār karnā thā

no promise,surety, nor any hope was due

yet I had little choice but to wait for you

na koi wada na koi yaqin na koi umid

magar hamein to tera intizar karna tha

no promise,surety, nor any hope was due

yet I had little choice but to wait for you

vo jo ham meñ tum meñ qarār thā tumheñ yaad ho ki na yaad ho
