If they are infamous, what name will they not have (poetry)

In Urdu poetry, the name of courage is known for its expression of superficial feelings for the beloved in its words, for tying low and low thoughts and for suicidal poetry. Literary chronicles say that courage was limited to the subject of dealing with the beloved and showed degradation and inferiority. It is said that courage lost sight in response, but it is also said that he pretended to be blind. ۔

Jarat died in 1809. Yahya Aman was his real name who became famous as Sheikh Qalandar Bakhsh Jarat. The ghazal of that time was wrapped in traditional themes, which were dominated by the color of heart, love and inner feelings. Similarly, in the poetry of this period, there are many words of Urdu language which are now obsolete. You will find such words in this ghazal too. Read this ghazal of courage.

زلغزل
If they are sitting, they are near, but they cannot raise their eyes
I can’t touch it right now

Seeing from afar, they bite their lips
Literature can’t move its lips right now

Don’t we know the rules of love?
Infinitely but can’t read them

Is it a wrath that if they speak, they speak for themselves?
Why can’t we call them?

Even though we are bold, we are like that
Luckily they can’t sleep together
