The Lonely Blue

Urdu & Hindi shayari, quietly set — Ghalib · Mir · the maestros, with meanings. a stressbuster 🌙

[The Lonely Blue @TheLonelyBlue]

the whole garden knows how he feels. the one person who should, doesn't.

پتا پتا بوٹا بوٹا حال ہمارا جانے ہے
جانے نہ جانے گل ہی نہ جانے باغ تو سارا جانے ہے

— Mir Taqi Mir (1723–1810)

گل · gul · the rose — and, in a ghazal, the beloved

کہ لگائے نہ لگے اور بجھائے نہ بنے

— Mirza Ghalib (1797–1869)

Save this one.

i worked out why my heart was going. took a second.

دل دھڑکنے کا سبب یاد آیا

— Nasir Kazmi (1925–1972)

I remembered the reason my heart was pounding —
it was the thought of you; only now do I remember.

the waiting was the love story 🎵

ye na thī hamārī qismat ki visāl-e-yār hotā
agar aur jiite rahte yahī intizār hotā

— Mirza Ghalib (1797 – 1869)

Union with the beloved was never in my fate — had I lived on, this same waiting would have gone on.

وصال (visāl) — union, meeting

I resigned from Apple today. I spent the last three years doing foldable research at both google and apple. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving foldables and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
