Sher on Ummeed
We live because there
is always a hope around. Life may be tough but this toughness is softened because we see, or try to see, some rays of hope even in the clouds that hang low and heavy. It applies to all of us including the lovers who would perish if left in lurch without hope of union. You may be interested in looking at these verses.
dil nā-umīd to nahīñ nākām hī to hai
lambī hai ġham kī shaam magar shaam hī to hai
dil na-umid to nahin nakaam hi to hai
lambi hai gham ki sham magar sham hi to hai

ham ko un se vafā kī hai ummīd
jo nahīñ jānte vafā kyā hai
From her I hope for constancy
who knows it not, to my dismay
hum ko un se wafa ki hai ummid
jo nahin jaante wafa kya hai
From her I hope for constancy
who knows it not, to my dismay

na koī va.ada na koī yaqīñ na koī umiid
magar hameñ to tirā intizār karnā thā
no promise,surety, nor any hope was due
yet I had little choice but to wait for you
na koi wada na koi yaqin na koi umid
magar hamein to tera intizar karna tha
no promise,surety, nor any hope was due
yet I had little choice but to wait for you

mire junūñ kā natīja zarūr niklegā

mere junun ka natija zarur niklega
isi siyah samundar se nur niklega

koī aisā kar bahāna mirī aas TuuT jaa.e
tere wadon pe kahan tak mera dil fareb khae
koi aisa kar bahana meri aas TuT jae
yuuñ to har shaam umīdoñ meñ guzar jaatī hai
aaj kuchh baat hai jo shaam pe ronā aayā
Every evening was, by hope, sustained
This evening's desperation makes me weep
yun to har sham umidon mein guzar jati hai
aaj kuchh baat hai jo sham pe rona aaya
Every evening was, by hope, sustained
This evening's desperation makes me weep
