Ghazal 70

bahut pahle se un qadmon ki aahaT jaan lete hain

sar mein sauda bhi nahin dil mein tamanna bhi nahin

sitaron se ulajhta ja raha hun

kisi ka yun to hua kaun umr bhar phir bhi

narm faza ki karwaTen dil ko dukha ke rah gain

ek muddat se teri yaad bhi aai na hamein

aur hum bhul gae hon tujhe aisa bhi nahin

See Ghazal

tum muḳhātib bhī ho qarīb bhī ho

tum ko dekheñ ki tum se baat kareñ

You're in front and near me too

Should I converse or look at you?

tum muKHatib bhi ho qarib bhi ho

tum ko dekhen ki tum se baat karen

You're in front and near me too

Should I converse or look at you?

Translation

koī samjhe to ek baat kahūñ

ishq taufīq hai gunāh nahīñ

if someone were to listen, one thing I will opine

Love is not a crime forsooth it is grace divine

koi samjhe to ek baat kahun

ishq taufiq hai gunah nahin

if someone were to listen, one thing I will opine

Love is not a crime forsooth it is grace divine

Quote 26

किताबों की दुनिया मुर्दों और ज़िंदों दोनों के बीच की दुनिया है।

Share this

वही शायरी अमर होती है या बहुत दिनों तक ज़िंदा रहती है जिसमें ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा लफ़्ज़ ऐसे आएं जिन्हें अनपढ़ लोग भी जानते और बोलते हैं।

Share this

सोज़-ओ-गुदाज़ में जब पुख़्तगी आ जाती है तो ग़म, ग़म नहीं रहता बल्कि एक रुहानी संजीदगी में बदल जाता है।

Share this

ख़ुशनसीब से ख़ुशनसीब आशिक़ को इश्क़िया नग़मे सहारा देते हैं। पूरी इन्सानी तहज़ीब-ओ-तमद्दुन, तमाम ख़ारिजी तमतराक़ के बावजूद फुनूने लतीफ़ा की मोहताज है।

Rubai 61

khote hain agar jaan to kho lene de

karte nahin kuchh to kaam karna kya aae

tu hath ko jab hath mein le leti hai

kahti hain yahi teri nigahen ai dost

har saz se hoti nahin ye dhun paida
