फ़ुर्सत कहाँ कि हम से किसी वक़्त तू मिले
दिन ग़ैर का है रात तिरे पासबाँ की है
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
You have no spare time to meet me at all, because your day is occupied by rivals and your night belongs to your guard.
Explanation
This couplet captures the quiet ache of a lover who finds themselves completely squeezed out of their beloved's world. The beloved's time is entirely partitioned—the bustling day is claimed by rivals and social demands, while the quiet night is watched over by vigilant guards. It is a wistful, gently sarcastic lament about yearning for genuine intimacy in a life that offers no room for it.
