Cast the paradise into hell…(Ghalib)
25 May 2009
Courtesy mehr-i-niimroz, I found one of my favourite verses from Ghalib
taa((at me;N taa rahe nah mai-o-angabii;N kii laag
doza;x me;N ;Daal do ko))ii le kar bihisht ko
1) so that, in obedience/worship, the attachment/desire of wine and honey does not remain
2) take Paradise, and cast it into Hell
