Ghazal Nineteen
Behold, the time for spring season is approaching,
With the spring, comes the benefactor, and the heart is at peace.(1)
The eye’s pupil holds his splendour,
And wherever it sees, it perceives the friend’s semblance.(2)
And the direction, in which my eye focuses, I just pursue,
As, in this regard, nothing else I can envisage.(3)
The friendly claimants received the news that
Voicing Anal-haq, Mansoor is heading towards the noose.(4)
Tell all the flowers to bloom,
At the news which is announced by nightingale.(5)
Abashed was Almighty and I remained in perplexity,
As there is no epilogue to your fondness.(6)
Goya always embroils in your swirling tresses,
Because his heart goes astray in your fondness.(7)(19)
