Sher on Bahaar
Spring is a season that
we all love for the beauty and aroma it spread all around. It is a face of nature that poets have drawn upon frequently not only to portray a season but also a state of our lives. It has also been used as a metaphor in love poetry. We have made a selection of verses on this theme for you to read and enjoy.
shāḳhoñ se barg-e-gul nahīñ jhaḌte haiñ baaġh meñ
zevar utar rahā hai urūs-e-bahār kā
shaKHon se barg-e-gul nahin jhaDte hain bagh mein
zewar utar raha hai urus-e-bahaar ka
us ko ḳhizāñ ke aane kā kyā ranj kyā qalaq
rote kaTā ho jis ko zamāna bahār kā
us ko KHizan ke aane ka kya ranj kya qalaq
rote kaTa ho jis ko zamana bahaar ka
tinkoñ se khelte hī rahe āshiyāñ meñ ham
aayā bhī aur gayā bhī zamāna bahār kā
tinkon se khelte hi rahe aashiyan mein hum
aaya bhi aur gaya bhi zamana bahaar ka
guloñ kā daur hai bulbul maze bahār meñ luuT
ḳhizāñ machāegī aate hī is dayār meñ luuT
gulon ka daur hai bulbul maze bahaar mein luT
KHizan machaegi aate hi is dayar mein luT
mujh ko ehsās-e-rañg-o-bū na huā
yuuñ bhī aksar bahār aa.ī hai
mujh ko ehsas-e-rang-o-bu na hua
yun bhi aksar bahaar aai hai
ḳhizāñ ruḳhsat huī phir āmad-e-fasl-e-bahārī hai
garebāñ ḳhud-baḳhud hone lagā hai dhajjiyāñ merā
KHizan ruKHsat hui phir aamad-e-fasl-e-bahaari hai
gareban KHud-baKHud hone laga hai dhajjiyan mera
shagufta bāġh-e-suḳhan hai hamīñ se ai 'sābir'
jahāñ meñ misl-e-nasīm-e-bahār ham bhī haiñ
shagufta bagh-e-suKHan hai hamin se ai 'sabir'
jahan mein misl-e-nasim-e-bahaar hum bhi hain
jo thī bahār to gaate rahe bahār kā raag
ḳhizāñ jo aa.ī to ham ho ga.e ḳhizāñ kī taraf
jo thi bahaar to gate rahe bahaar ka rag
KHizan jo aai to hum ho gae KHizan ki taraf
na.ī bahār kā muzhda bajā sahī lekin
abhī to aglī bahāroñ kā zaḳhm taaza hai
nai bahaar ka muzhda baja sahi lekin
abhi to agli bahaaron ka zaKHm taza hai
bahār aate hī Takrāne lage kyuuñ sāġhar o miinā
batā ai pīr-e-mai-ḳhāna ye mai-ḳhānoñ pe kyā guzrī
bahaar aate hi Takrane lage kyun saghar o mina
bata ai pir-e-mai-KHana ye mai-KHanon pe kya guzri
chaar din kī bahār hai saarī
ye takabbur hai yār-e-jānī hech
chaar din ki bahaar hai sari
ye takabbur hai yar-e-jaani hech
shaguftagī-e-dil-e-kārvāñ ko kyā samjhe
vo ik nigāh jo uljhī huī bahār meñ hai
shaguftagi-e-dil-e-karwan ko kya samjhe
wo ek nigah jo uljhi hui bahaar mein hai

meri zindagi pe na muskura mujhe zindagi ka alam nahin
jise tere gham se ho wasta wo KHizan bahaar se kam nahin
