“I Wanted To Tell The Book Thief Many Things, About Beauty And Brutality. But What Could I Tell Her

Could be worse.

Ab to ummeed hi nahi hai usko ru-ba-ru dekhne ki,

Bas ek khwab mein mulaqat ho jaye, to zarurat nahi rahegi marne ki

Tumhein jab ru-ba-ru dekha karenge, ye socha hai bohot socha karenge.

Whenever I’ll get to see you face to face, I think I will think a lot.

When I was young and my heart was an open book,

I used to say live and let live

But when this ever changing world

Makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die!

Bo Burnham, Make Happy (2016) // Inside (2021)

Wo mujhse alag hokar khush hai toh fir shikayat kesi

Ab mein usey khush bhi na dekhu, toh fir muhabbat kesi..

My head is a hive of words that won't settle.

Same. But it's "bhaunk bhen***".

when someone says sun yrr im either "farmayein" or "bhaunk be " nothing in between

Ajab apna haal hota jo visal-e-yaar hota

kabhi jaan sadqe hoti kabhi dil nisar hota

Strange my state would have been, if my beloved had come to see me,

Sometimes I would surrender my heart, sometimes my soul to her
