URDU POEMS

aaj bhii hai.n mere qadamo.n ke nishaa.N aavaaraa
terii galiyo.n me.n bhaTakate the jahaa.N aavaaraa

tujh se kyaa bichha.De to ye ho ga_ii apanii haalat
jaise ho jaaye havaao.n me.n dhuaa.N aavaaraa

mere shero.n kii thii pahachaan usii ke dam se
us ko kho kar hue benaam-o-nishaa.N aavaaraa

jis ko bhii chaahaa use TuuT ke chaahaa "Raashid"
kam mile.nge tumhe.n ham jaise yahaa.N aavaaraa

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

aaj ashko.n kaa taar TuuT gayaa
rishtaa-e-intazaar TuuT gayaa

yuu.N vo Thukaraa ke chal diye goyaa
ik khilaunaa thaa pyaar TuuT gayaa

roye rah-rah kar hich_kiyaa.N lekar
saaz-e-Gam baar baar TuuT gayaa

[saaz = musical instrument]

aap kii beruKhii kaa shikavaa kyaa
dil thaa naapaa_idaar TuuT gayaa

[naapaa_idaar = weak/delicate]

dekh lii dil ne besabaatii-e-gul
phir tilism-e-bahaar TuuT gayaa

[besabaatii-e-gul = mortality/short life span of a flower]
[tilism-e-bahaar = (magic)spell of spring]

'Saif' kyaa chaar din kii ranjish se
itanii muddat kaa pyaar TuuT gayaa
