about

This is a ghazal written by the poet Shakeel Badayuni (1916 – 1970), one of the most celebrated Urdu poets of the 20th century who also made a name for himself as a top lyricist of Indian film songs for three decades. His poetry was a great favourite of the ghazal doyenne Begum Akhtar who sang several of his ghazals, including this one, in the 1940s and 50s. In this ghazal, the poet, beseeches his beloved to not pray for his long life or well-being as the pain of unrequited love has already brought him to the threshold of death and he doesn’t wish his agony to be prolonged. He also admonishes the healer (or doctor who is attending to him) to leave him alone as any cure will only make his pain worse.
