Ghazal of Amir – Rāg Harī Kamodī, Tāl Jhaptālā
Holy crown-bearer of both worlds, call me now to your feet.
The world is an oppressor, and the age is oppressive. I have fallen into the clutches of two betrayers.
May they not freeze me after burning me – my cold sighs, my hot groans.
To whom but you can anyone call out? You who take pity on the afflicted.
The shell of isolation, the globe of frailty: Amir, just how long can you protect your heart?
* * * Heartily, Puran |
