Mirza Ghalib Faith Poems
- 1. The World Is A Playground
I perceive the world as a playground
Where dawn and dusk appear in eternal rounds
In His Universal form is a plaything the throne of Solomon
The miracles of the Messiah seem so ordinary in my eyes
... - 2. Innocent Heart
Innocent heart, what has happened to you?
Alas, what is the cure to this pain?
We are interested, and they are displeased,
... - 3. Come That My Soul Has No Repose
Come that my soul has no repose
Has no strength to bear the injustice of waiting
Heaven is given in return for the life of this world
... - 4. Heart It Is, Not A Brick Or Stone
Heart it is, not a brick or stone
Why shouldn't it feel the pain?
Let none tyrannize this heart
Or I shall cry again and again
...
