Annihilation and protection - Shayaari

 


Annihilation and protection - Shayaari




Phaanoos bunker jiski hifazat khud hawa kare

Who shamma kya bhujegee jise roshan khuda kare!


फ़ानूस बनके जिसकी हिफ़ाज़त ख़ुद हवा करे 

वो शम्मा क्या भुजेगी जिसको रोशन ख़ुदा करे।  


Literal meaning : 

When the air itself acts as a chandelier to protect the lamp, who can put off such a lamp,

Who dares to put off the lamp that is lit by God!


|Meaning :

When the annihilator himself becomes the protector of the life,

No one can harm such a life!

or

No harm will befall the one who’s come under the protection of God!

 

Meanings: 

Phanoos – chandelier

Shamma – light, diya

Roshan – to light up

Khuda – God

Hifazat – to protect

Bhujegee – to put off


Question time:

How would you interpret this?

How to imbibe this in our lives?

Of what use is this couplet to a sadhak?
