digargun hai jahan

(Digargu hai Jahan - sung by Ali Raza)

दीगरगूं है जहाँ, तारों की गर्दिश तेज़ है साकी !

न उट्ठा फिर कोई रूमी अजम के लालाज़ारों से

नहीं है, न उम्मीद इकबाल अपनी किश्त-ए-वीरां से

Adding my Makhta to it

 'मुज़्तरिब' निकल रहा है ज़हरीला धुआं तवाहुम के बारूद से

I have tried at the literal translation of this Ghazal

the world is reversing, the stars are spinning faster, O saaqi !

heart in every speck hears the sound of surrender, O saaqi !  

the bounty of piety and intellect have been stolen from the believers

whose blood drenched amorous glance has caused this apostate act O saaqi ! 

pain of desire does not arise in the heart of mosque

the origin of it is still shrouded under the veil , O saaqi  

There was no other Rumi from the gardens of Azam,

Though the water and skies of Iran is the same, and it’s the same Tabriz , O saaqi !  

do not have any expectations, O Iqbaal, from your desolate land

but if little moisten its soil can be really very fertile , O saaqi !  

To the travelers on the path of poverty is bestowed the secrets of King

On me is raining this wealth of fortune, O saaqi

------

O Muztarib, the bomb of blind faith is emiting poisonous air
the sword of Changez (Khan) is again blood thirsty, O Saaqi !

Digargun hai jahaan taroon kee gardish tez hai saaqi

dil har zarre mein go ga-e-rasta khez hai saaqi

[Digargun= different/opposite,  gardish  = orbit/round , go = hear, ga-e-rasta khez = sound of surrender]

mata-e-deen-o-daanish lut gayi allah waalon kee

ye kis kaafir adda ka gamza-e-khuurez hai saaqi
[ mata-e-deen-o-daanish = wealth/good things of religion/piety and intellect ; gamza-e-khuurez= blood drenched glance ]

wahi daireena beemari wahi namuhkami dil kee

ilaaz is ka wahi aab -e- nishaatangez hai saqi

[ daireena = old, muhkami = strenght, namuhkami = weakness,aab -e- nishaatangez  = water that give happiness (wine) ]

haram ke dil mein soz-e-aarzu paida nahin hota

kee paidaii teri ab tak hizaab aamez hai saaqi

[ haram  = moseque, soz-e-aarzu = heat/pain of desire, hizaab aamez = within veil ]

na uttha phir koi rumi azam ke laalazaron se

wahi aab-o-gil-e-iraan wahi tabrez hai saaqi

[ laalazaron = gardens, aab-o-gil-e-iraan = water and sky of Iran, tabrez = City in Iran]

nahin hai na umeed iqbaal apni kist-e-viraan se

zaraa nam ho tou yeh mitti bahut zarkhez hai saaqi
[kist= agricultural land, zarkhez = fertile ]

faqeer-e-raah ko bakshe gaye asraar-e-sultaanii

baha meri nawa kee daultein parvez hai saaqi

Adding my makhta to this

Muztarib nikal raha hai zehrila dhuaan tavaaham ke baarud se
tashna-e-khun aaj phir shamshir-e-changez hai saaqi
[tavaaham ke baarud = the bomb of blind faith, tashna-e-khun  = blood thirsty,  shamshir-e-changez = sword of changez Khan ]

I am putting below an interpretation of this by Prof Shahid Alam

The world changes utterly: the stars spin faster, O Saqi.
In every heart I hear the cry of surrender, O Saqi.

God’s journeymen have lost their arts, their certainty.
Whose artifice deceives them, who has this power, O Saqi.

Weak-willed, weak-hearted, dimly they mope about.
Deep is their need for that life-enhancing elixir, O Saqi.

The Muslim lacks the fire that can ignite his heart.
Why is the birth of spirit so hard to deliver, O Saqi.

There rises none like Rumi from the gardens of ‘Ajam.
Persia is the same, unchanged her sky and water, O Saqi.

Iqbal will not walk away from his fields laid waste.
A little dew and sweat will revive its power, O Saqi.

This dervish is privy to the rites, the rigors of power.
His words are rare, he ignites visions of splendor, O Saqi.

دگرگو  ہے  جہاں  تاروں  کی   گردش  تیز   ہے ساقی
دل  ہر  زررے  میں  گو  گا ا رستخیز ہے ساقی

ماتا ا دین و دانش  لوٹ  گی اللہوالوں  کی
یہ کس کافر ادا کا گامز ا خونریز ہے ساقی

وہی دیرینہ ا بیماری وہی نامھکامی دل کی
الّذ اسکا وہی اب ا نشاتنگیز ہے ساقی

حرم کے دل میں سوز ا آرزو پیدا نہیں ہوتا
کی پیدای تیری اب تک ہذاابامز ہے ساقی

نہ اتحا پھر کوئی رمی ازم کے لالزارروں سے
وہی اب و گل ا اران وہی تبریز ہے ساقی

نہیں ہے نہ امید اقبال اپنی کیسٹ ا ویران سے
ذرا نام ہو تو یہ متی بدی زرخیز ہے ساقی

فکیر ا راہ کو بکشے گئے اسرار ا سلطانی
بہا میری نوا کے دولت ا پرویز ہے ساقی !!

اقبال

مضطرب نکل رہا ہے زہریلا دھواں تواہم کے بارود سے
تشنہ ا کہوں آج پھر شمشیر ا چنگیز ہے ساقی
