Traduction

Will life just be a test? Will they only give me scars as gifts? Everything I say has no effect. Is there something wrong with how I speak? No one even stops me. Is this what happens in families? We hide our lack of things. What is there in the pride of us poor people? I thought I was different from the world. What was I thinking? The shop of seeing is closed since evening. Is there no loss in the shop? Oh twilight of my heart's morning and evening, Do you still bathe in the tub? Why don't they speak for me? Do they have blisters on their tongues? What is silence saying in my ear? What is coming to my mind? The one who often thinks of the heart, Does he also come into his own thoughts? If I meet him, I want to ask, Am I still under your protection? The way you look at the sky, Is there someone living in the sky? The spring breeze is full of dust. Is dust rising in that house? Why can't I find peace? Was there only one person in the world?

Explication

This ghazal by Jaun Elia explores themes of existential reflection, societal norms, and personal introspection. The poet questions the purpose of life, expressing a sense of futility and isolation. He wonders if life is merely a series of tests and if the only rewards are scars. The poet reflects on his own ineffectiveness in communication, pondering if there is a flaw in his expression. He feels unnoticed and questions the familial bonds that seem indifferent. The poem also touches on the pride of the impoverished, who hide their deprivations. The poet's self-reflection leads him to question his separation from the world and the thoughts that occupy his mind. The imagery of a closed shop of sight and a dust-laden breeze evokes a sense of stagnation and decay. Throughout the ghazal, Jaun Elia uses rhetorical questions to convey his inner turmoil and the search for meaning in a seemingly indifferent world.
