aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
means
ham aap hī ko apnā maqsūd jānte haiñ
apne sivā.e kis ko maujūd jānte haiñ
Interpretation:
Rekhta AI
The couplet expresses absolute, exclusive devotion: the beloved “you” becomes the speaker’s sole purpose. By saying no one else is “present,” the poet turns presence into a measure of importance—only the beloved feels real. The emotional core is total absorption, where the world fades and one relationship becomes the entire meaning of existence.
hum aap hi ko apna maqsud jaante hain
apne siwae kis ko maujud jaante hain
