paa-ba-gil sab hai.n rihaa_ii kii kare tadabiir kaun
dast-bastaa shahar me.n khole merii zanjiir kaun

[rihaa_ii = freedom; tadabiir = solution/way]
[dast-bastaa = tied hands]

meraa sar haazir hai lekin meraa munsif dekh le
kar rahaa hai mere fard-e-jurm kii tahariir kaun

[munsif = judge; fard-e-jurm = tale of guilt]
[tahariir = writing]

aaj darvaazo.n pe dastak jaanii pahachaanii sii hai
aaj mere naam laataa hai merii taaziir kaun

[taaziir = punishment]

niind jab Khvaabo.n se pyaarii ho to aise ahad me.n
Khvaab dekhe kaun aur Khvaabo.n ko de taabiir kaun

[ahad = era/times]

ret abhii pichhale makaano.n kii na vaapas aa_ii thii
phir lab-e-saahil gharaundaa kar gayaa taamiir kaun

[lab-e-saahil = on the shoreline; taamiir = construct]

saare rishte hijrato.n me.n saath dete hai.n to phir
shahar se jaate hue hotaa hai daaman_giir kaun

merii chaadar to chhinii thii shaam kii tanhaa_ii ne
beridaa_ii ko merii phir de gayaa tashahiir kaun

dushmano.n ke saath mere dost bhii aazaad hai.n
dekhanaa hai khe.nchataa hai mujh pe pahalaa tiir kaun

Dear all,

Poetry is something strange to elaborate in sence of words, it is irony that poetry is made of words although.

The abstractness which allure the reader is his own, the poets mystical dealings with the emotions, the magnification power that the poet helds to its said form is what makes a work of art.

In here sometimes, although not thoutfully, poetry seems to be taken too lightly; the fact is that we must observe the same respect towards this art, for which the Indian culture has pampered and kept alive this multifacet form in its original intact format.

Taking the opportunity of this Ghazal posted by Shraddha, I express my regards to the people who took efforts in bringing forwad this site and letting the buddies pen down what they have in their heart.

But then, whatever written is bieng in record, so why not put what best we can.

Regards,

Gulam Abbas Hashmi
