I fear your death, heart of my life,
Because the meaning of life [for me] is living with you
What to say about the beauty of Urdu poetry? Dard lived two hundred and fifty years ago. Today, in this time of rampant materialism, religious fanatism, government sponsored hate of Muslims, government sponsored hate of Sufis, almost universal contempt for poetry... there are still hundreds of YouTube videos about Dard's poetry. Rejoice!
