first verse: aah ko chahiye ek umar asar hone tak kaun jeeta hai tere zulf ke sar hone tak?

Ghalib laments that it would take a lifetime of sighs of the lover to have an influence (or affect) on the heart of the beloved. Who knows who will live so long so see this fructify. Who will live so long to see your hairs properly arranged and your small nuances (curls of your hairs could mean the tangled/mysterious ways of your life) to get resolved. The poet says these small niceties/concerns of yours may take forever and who knows if I am alive to see you finally free and giving me the full attention that I deserve. source: https://rahulnegi.blogspot.com/2012/04/aah-ko-chahiye-ek.html
