Sher on Wafa
Loyalty in poetry, as
a quality of human character, has been an important preoccupation because it exists in relation to disloyalty, infidelity, or insincerity. It is a pity that sometimes the loyal lovers and beloveds get subjected to disloyalty. This provides enough material to poets to reflect upon the very meaning of loyalty and how it defines the attitude of the persons concerned. Some verses around this subject would hold your attention for the perspective they develop around this experience.
vafā kareñge nibāheñge baat māneñge
tumheñ bhī yaad hai kuchh ye kalām kis kā thā
wafa karenge nibahenge baat manenge
tumhein bhi yaad hai kuchh ye kalam kis ka tha

ulfat meñ barābar hai vafā ho ki jafā ho
har baat meñ lazzat hai agar dil meñ mazā ho
ulfat mein barabar hai wafa ho ki jafa ho
har baat mein lazzat hai agar dil mein maza ho
bevafā.ī pe terī jī hai fidā
qahr hotā jo bā-vafā hotā
I sacrifice my heart upon your infidelity
were you faithful it would be a calamity
bewafai pe teri ji hai fida
qahr hota jo ba-wafa hota
I sacrifice my heart upon your infidelity
were you faithful it would be a calamity

vafā jis se kī bevafā ho gayā
jise but banāyā ḳhudā ho gayā
I was constant but she eschewed fidelity
the one I idolized, alas, claimed divinity
wafa jis se ki bewafa ho gaya
jise but banaya KHuda ho gaya
I was constant but she eschewed fidelity
the one I idolized, alas, claimed divinity
