Attitude

kaise kahen ki tujh ko bhi hum se hai wasta koi tu ne to hum se aaj tak koi gila nahin kiya

hum ko mita sake ye zamane mein dam nahin hum se zamana khud hai zamane se hum nahin

bazicha-e-atfal hai duniya mere aage hota hai shab-o-roz tamasha mere aage just like a child's playground this world appears to me every single night and day, this spectacle i see ghalib (mirza ghalib) presents the world as a trivial game, like children’s play, suggesting it lacks real weight or seriousness. the “spectacle” of night and day becomes an endless performance that the speaker watches rather than joins. the emotional core is disillusionment mixed with detachment: life’s routines look repetitive, staged, and ultimately unconvincing.

nahin duniya ko jab parwa hamari to phir duniya ki parwa kyun karen hum

suraj hun zindagi ki ramaq chhod jaunga main dub bhi gaya to shafaq chhod jaunga

ham-safar chahiye hujum nahin ek musafir bhi qafila hai mujhe

kya hai jo ho gaya hun main thoda bahut kharab thoda bahut kharab to hona bhi chahiye

kash wo raste mein mil jae mujh ko munh pher kar guzarna hai

ras aane lagi duniya to kaha dil ne ki ja ab tujhe dard ki daulat nahin milne wali

kya kahen kitne marasim the hamare us se wo jo ek shakhs hai munh pher ke jaane wala

inqalab ek khwab hai so hai dil ki duniya kharab hai so hai

chahiye hai mujhe inkar-e-mohabbat mere dost lekin is mein tera inkar nahin chahiye hai

hum aise jaenge le kar balaen duniya ki kahin na hoga koi hadisa hamare baad

chahen to is ko tegh-e-khamoshi se kat den lekin junun se jang zabani karenge hum
