Things We Can Do - A Gazal

A few lines of this Gazal by Nida Fazili were used in a song of movie Tamanna. Very simple, yet eloquent.


Apanaa Gam Leke Kahin Aur Na Jaaya Jaaye
Ghar mein Bikhari hui Cheezon Ko Sajaaya Jaaye


Jin Chiraagon Ko Hawaaon Kaa Koi Khauf Nahin
Un Chiraagon Ko Hawaaon Se Bachaayaa Jaaye


Baag Mein Jaane Ke Adab Hua Karte Hain
Kisi Titali Ko Na Phoolon Se Udaayaa Jaaye


Khudakushi Karne Ki Himmat Nahin Hoti Sab Mein
Aur Kuchh Din Yoon Hi Auron Ko Sataaya Jaaye


Ghar Se Masjid Hai Bahut Door Chalo Yoon Kar Lein
Kisi Rote Hue Bachche Ko Hansaaya Jaaye

Sardi, Prem, Preetam And A Few Poems

Some more lovely poems by the masters. The first one is on winters, by Nida Fazli. Not really felt in Pune. For others I can't say, but I really miss those winters in North, though I can't say the same about the summers.


The other one is by Maithli Sharan Gupt. In my post Poetic Jewels, I had mentioned a few lines of it. It's another fantastic work.



Freewheeler has sent me another beauty by Kabir.It's his personal favourite. Obviously so.

Preetam Ko Pattiyaan Likhoon
Jo Kahoon Hoye Bides
Tan-Man Mein Nainan Mein
Taapoon Kahaan Sandes

Have tried to make things more reader friendly. Roman notation for Hindi and Urdu sometimes hurt to the eyes. I have also changed the post For Father accordingly.

For My Father

Though these are not originally my words, this is what I always wanted to say for my father. Again by Nida Fazli, this is a master creation. Please appreciate.
