नहीं घटती शब-ए-फ़ुर्क़त भी अक्सर हम ने देखा है
जो बढ़ जाते हैं हद से वो ही घट कर कम भी होते हैं
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
The night of separation does not seem to shorten, yet we have often observed that whatever exceeds all limits eventually declines and diminishes.
Explanation
The night of separation stretches on so endlessly that it feels entirely immune to time. Yet, the poet finds a quiet solace in the law of nature: whatever swells past its extreme limits must eventually peak, dwindle, and fade. It is a comforting realization that even the most boundless sorrow will ultimately exhaust itself and recede.
