DAGH DEHLVI

Nawab Mirza Khan Dagh Dehlavi (1831–1905) was one of the last great voices of classical Urdu poetry, born within the royal walls of Delhi’s Red Fort and raised under the shadow of Mughal grace. Life took many turns after the death of his stepfather, Prince Mirza Mohammad Sultan, and the eventual fall of Delhi in 1857. From the comfort of Rampur to the cultural crossroads of Lucknow, Patna, Calcutta, and Hyderabad, Dagh’s journey was as textured as his verse. A disciple of the celebrated Zauq and a mentor to many, Dagh refined the ghazal into an intimate art of conversation—rich in idiom, tender in emotion, and often laced with wit and warmth. He brought the delicacy of Lucknow and the dignity of Delhi together, while keeping his language rooted in everyday speech. Steering love poetry away from lofty abstractions, Dagh turned it into a deeply human—and at times sensuous—expression. His four divaans, a collection of letters, and a long narrative poem remain as luminous testaments to a poet who cherished beauty in its simplest, most heartfelt form.

Full Text of the Urdu Ghazal in Roman Transliteration (Courtesy: Rekhta):

nā-ravā kahiye nā-sazā kahiye
kahiye kahiye mujhe burā kahiye

tujh ko bad-ahd o bevafā kahiye
aise jhūTe ko aur kyā kahiye

dard dil kā na kahiye yā kahiye
jab vo pūchhe mizāj kyā kahiye

phir na rukiye jo mudda.ā kahiye
ek ke ba.ad dūsrā kahiye

aap ab merā muñh na khulvā.eñ
ye na kahiye ki mudda.ā kahiye

vo mujhe qatl kar ke kahte haiñ
māntā hī na thā ye kyā kahiye

dil meñ rakhne kī baat hai ġham-e-ishq
is ko hargiz na barmalā kahiye

tujh ko achchhā kahā hai kis kis ne
kahne vāloñ ko aur kyā kahiye

vo bhī sun leñge ye kabhī na kabhī
hāl-e-dil sab se jā-ba-jā kahiye

mujh ko kahiye burā na ġhair ke saath
jo ho kahnā judā judā kahiye

intihā ishq kī ḳhudā jaane
dam-e-āḳhir ko ibtidā kahiye

mere matlab se kyā ġharaz matlab
aap apnā to mudda.ā kahiye

aisī kashtī kā Dūbnā achchhā
ki jo dushman ko nāḳhudā kahiye

sabr furqat meñ aa hī jaatā hai
par use der-āshnā kahiye

aa ga.ī aap ko masīhā.ī
marne vāloñ ko marhabā kahiye

aap kā ḳhair-ḳhvāh mere sivā
hai koī aur dūsrā kahiye

haath rakh kar vo apne kānoñ par
mujh se kahte haiñ mājrā kahiye

hosh jaate rahe raqīboñ ke
'dāġh' ko aur bā-vafā kahiye
