“Bacha Nasho Ay Dil” – بچه نشو ای دل

Artist: Ahmad Zahir. Rough Translation: “Expect pain, sorrow, and melancholy in this path. It’s predestined in this universal clockwork where you just sit back powerlessly and allow it all to manifest to its end. Withdrawal and isolation into motionless obscurity is also a major part of it. Losing hope and optimism is yet another attribute of it. But don’t cower or become nihilistic as a result of it. And forget the beloved too. She will ruin you. So that’s enough going against the grain to prove yourself. You’ve burned enough. Put the fire that is inside of you out now. And forget the beloved. She didn’t really learn from your teachings and lessons. Love is not in her lexicon or vocabulary. Love can only lead to melancholy after all. The very end of love is melancholy. So don’t go back to the beloved. If you’re in melancholy now because of her and because of everything that has passed, don’t move, and stay where you are from now on. Make the melancholic moods and the insights gained from them your home and your abode now.”
