Beniyazi

ye ada-e-be-niyazi tujhe bewafa mubarak magar aisi be-rukhi kya ki salam tak na pahunche

be-niyazi had se guzri banda-parwar kab talak hum kahenge haal-e-dil aur aap farmawenge kya all bounds, your callousness exceeds, do tell me until when my feelings i keep pouring out, your asking me what then? the poet complains about the beloved's extreme aloofness, ironically addressing them as 'banda-parwar' (patron of the servant) while being neglected. the core struggle is that the beloved pretends not to hear or understand the poet's suffering, responding with a feigned and indifferent 'what?' whenever the poet tries to confess his love.

mujhe ab dekhti hai zindagi yun be-niyazana ki jaise puchhti ho kaun ho tum justuju kya hai

aashiqon ki khastagi bad-hali ki parwa nahin ai sarapa naz tu ne be-niyazi khub ki the speaker laments the beloved’s coldness: even when lovers are worn down and ruined, she shows no concern. “sarapa naaz” paints her as made entirely of pride, while “be-niyazi” becomes a deliberate stance rather than a simple neglect. the emotional core is helpless devotion facing a beautifully indifferent beloved, where the lover’s pain only highlights her unfeeling grace.

kya aaj-kal se us ki ye be-tawajjohi hai munh un ne is taraf se phera hai 'mir' kab ka the speaker questions whether the beloved’s coldness is recent, then corrects himself: the turning away happened much earlier. “turning the face” becomes a metaphor for emotional withdrawal and rejection. the couplet captures belated realization and self-deception—he was hoping it was temporary, but the neglect is long-standing.

sari duniya se be-niyazi hai wah ai mast-e-naz kya kahna

aap jam-e-tishnagi bhar dijiye aghyar ka aur yun kije hamein auron se kam de dijiye
