sherKuch Alfaaz

dilli ke na the kuche auraq-e-musawwar the jo shakl nazar aai taswir nazar aai meer taqi meer portrays delhi as so altered and ghostly that it no longer feels like a living city. the lanes seem like drawn, lifeless “illustrated pages,” and every sight turns into a mere image. the metaphor suggests devastation and emotional numbness: reality has been reduced to a static scene. it is grief and nostalgia seeing the world as art because life has drained from it.
