📜 About the Ghazal (Meaning & Context):
"Aah Ko Chahiye Ek Umr Asar Hone Tak" is one of the most celebrated works of Mirza Ghalib. The ghazal speaks to the agony of a lover who knows that by the time their sighs (Aah) reach the heart of the beloved, a lifetime will have passed. The poet laments, "Kaun jeeta hai teri zulf ke sar hone tak" — who has the longevity to wait for you to resolve your complexities? This verse highlights the concept of Taghaful (feigned neglect) and the mortality of the lover.

📝 Lyrics (Urdu, Hindi & English Translation):
Verse 1:
آہ کو چاہیے اِک عُمر اثر ہونے تک
Aah ko chahiye ek umr asar hone tak
(A sigh requires a lifetime to be effective)
Verse 2:
کون جیتا ہے تری زلف کے سر ہونے تک
Kaun jeeta hai teri zulf ke sar hone tak
(Who lives long enough to see your tresses untangled?)

Verse 3:
ہم نے مانا کہ تغافل نہ کرو گے لیکن
Hum ne maana ke taghaful na karoge lekin
(I admit that you will not neglect me, but...)
خاک ہو جائیں گے ہم تم کو خبر ہونے تک
Khaak ho jayenge hum tum ko khabar hone tak
(I will have turned to dust by the time you come to know).
