ખરેખરાં દુ:ખી નિત, ચીતમાં ચિંતા ભારી.
મળવાની શી વાત, રાતની રાહ બહુ પાજી;
— Narmad
Meaning
One is truly always sorrowful, with a heart heavy with worries. How can there be talk of meeting when the wait for night is so cruel?
Explanation
This couplet speaks about a person who is constantly in deep sorrow, their heart heavy with worries. For such a soul, finding joy or even thinking about a simple meeting becomes an impossible task. The poet highlights how time itself becomes an adversary; even the wait for night, which usually brings rest, feels incredibly long and difficult. It beautifully captures the profound despair where every moment is a struggle, and hope seems distant, making the passage of time agonizingly slow and burdensome.
