The best of HAFIZ

WHEN YOU CAN ENDURE
When
The words stop
And you can endure the silence

That reveals your heart’s
Pain
Of emptiness
Or that great wrenching-sweet longing,
That is the time to try and listen
To what the Beloved’s
Eyes

Most want
To
Say.

One of my most favourite shair of Ghalib

baazeechaa-e-atfaal hai duniya mere aage
hota hai shab-o-roz tamaasha mere aage

Aakhri is dard ki dawaa kaya hai”

Ghalib: Wah Wah
aah ko chaahiye ik ‘umr asar hone tak
kaun jeeta hai teree zulf ke sar hone tak ?

2. daam har mauj meiN hai halqa-e-sad_kaam-e-nahaNg
dekhaiN kya guzre hai qatre pe guhar hone tak

3. aashiqee sabr talab aur tamanna betaab
dil ka kya rang karooN KHoon-e-jigar hone tak ?

4. ham ne maana ke taGHaful na karoge, lekin
KHaak ho jaayeNge ham tumko KHabar hone tak

baithai hon shakh par yaa parwaz bhi parindai
bhata hai dil inka har subah chachahana
phoolon ki zindagi bhi kaya khoob zindagi hai
taa hadde umar inka shakhon yai muskarana

Shair unknown (Zindagi ko kis khoobsoorat tareeqai sai batyaa hai.

RAIS AMROHVI ON REMEMBERING AMROHA
Shaklay zahir kuchh bhe ho jaey wohi rehte hain hum
Hum kahin bhi hoen magar Amrohvi rehtay haen hum

Naam lay lay ker fazaein yaad karti hain hamein
Aaj bhi us ki hawaein yaad karti hain hamein
Rais Amrohvi

Ghalib revisited

HazaroN khwahishein aisii ke her khwahish pe dum niklay,
Buhut niklay meray armaaN lekin phir bhi kam niklay!

Nasib aazmani ke din aa rahe hain
qarib un ke aane ke din a rahe hain

jo dil se kahaa jo dil se sunaa hai
sab un ko sunaane ke din aa rahe hain

chalo ‘Faiz’ phir se kahiin lagaayein
sunna hai thikaane ke din aa rahe hain

baazeechaa-e-atfaal hai duniya mere aage
hota hai shab-o-roz tamaasha mere aage

Only Ghalib could have said this so long ago and yet it is so fresh!

FAIZ REMEMBERED

Raat yun dil mein teri, khoyi hui yaad aayi,
Jaise viraane mein chupke se bahaar aa jaye,
Jaise sahraaon mein haule se chale baad-e-naseem,
Jaise bimaar ko be-wajaah quraar aa jaaye.
