To cause deep sorrow, pain, or suffering to someone.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'heart' (del) is considered the source of all emotions, not just love. When you say your heart is bleeding, you are appealing to the other person's sense of 'ensaniyat' (humanity). In classical poetry, the 'blood of the heart' is often what the lover 'drinks' instead of wine because of the pain of separation. Mothers often use this phrase as a form of 'guilt-tripping' (in a loving but firm way) to bring children back to the right path. The phrase is equally common in Afghanistan and carries the same heavy emotional weight in Dari.
Use with 'shodan'
If you want to say 'I am heartbroken/suffering,' say 'Khun be del shodam'.
Too Dramatic?
Be careful using this for small things. It's like saying 'You are killing me' in English—use it when you really mean it.
