Parveen Shakir: Khulegii is nazar pe chashm-e-tar ahista ahista

Parveen Shakir 

was a legendary female poet who started her professional career in her childhood. Her first book was �Khushbu�. Then she came up with other books named Sad-Barg, Khud�kalaami, and Inkar. Sadly, she died in a car accident while she was going to work in 1994.

We are always willing to add more and more poetry of her.

khulegii is nazar pe chashm-e-tar aahistaa aahistaa

khulegii is nazar pe chashm-e-tar aahistaa aahistaa

kiyaa jaataa hai paanii mein safar aahistaa aahistaa

ko_ii zanjiir phir vaapas vahiin par le ke aatii hai

kaThin ho raah to chhutataa hai ghar aahistaa aahistaa

badal denaa hai rastaa yaa kahiin par baiTh jaanaa hai

ki Thakataa jaa rahaa hai hamsafar aahistaa aahistaa

Khalish ke saath is dil se na merii jaaN nikal jaaye

khinche tiir-e-shanaasaaii magar aahistaa aahistaa

Khalish  prick tiir-e-shanaasaaii

huaa hai sar_kashii mein phuul kaa apanaa ziyaaN, dekhaa

so jhukataa jaa rahaa hai ab ye sar aahistaa aahistaa

[ziyaaN = loss] [chashm-e-tar = wet/tearful eyes]

ajiib tarz-e-mulaaqaat ab ke bar rahii 

tumhin the badale hue yaa merii nigaahen thiin 

tumhaarii nazaron se lagataa thaa jaise merii bajaaye 

tumhaare ghar men ko_ii aur shaKhs aayaa hai 

tumhaare ohade kii denen tumhen mubaarak 

so tum ne meraa svaagat usii tarah se kiyaa 

jo afasaraan-e-hukuumat ke aitaqaad mein hai 

takallufan mere nazadiik aa ke baiTh gaye 

phir ehatamaam se mausam kaa zikr chhed diyaa 

kuchh us ke baad siyaasat kii baat bhii nikalii 

adab par bhii ko_ii do chaar tabasare faramaaye 

magar na tum ne hameshaa kii tarah ye puuchhaa 

kyaa vaqt kaisaa guzarataa hai teraa jaan-e-hayaat 

pahaad din kii aziiyat men kitanii shiddat hai 

ujaad raat kii tanhaaii kyaa qayaamat hai 

shabon kii sust ravii kaa tujhe bhii shikavaa hai 

Gam-e-firaaq ke qisse nishaat-e-vasl kaa zikr 

ravaayatan hii sahii koii baat to karate
