Lines from my favourite 'Ghazal', a type of song, 'Rasm-e-ulfat'. Beautiful lines, sung by Lata Mangeshkar and written by Naqsh Lyallpuri. Do check out the song.
Stay tuned!

'दर्द में डूबे हुए नग़मे हज़ारों हैं मगर,
साज़-ए-दिल टूट गया हो तो सुनाए कैसे।'
'Dard me doobe hue nagme hazaro hain magar,
Saaz-e-dil toot gaya ho to sunaye kaise.'
'There are thousands of songs, drowned in pain,
But if the Instrument of Heart, the instrument KNOWN as heart, is broken, how do I tell them, how do I sing them.'
~Naqsh Lyallpuri
