تیرے جمال کی کچھ روشنی سی پڑتی ہے

بتا رہا ہے مجھے رنگِ آئنا کہ میں ہوں

tere jamal ki kuch roshni si parti hai

bata raha hai mujhe rung-e-aienaa k main hoon

اَن کہی بات سمجھ لو تو بڑی بات ہے یہ

میری خاموش نوائی میں صدا ہے تو سہی

aan'kahi baat samjh lou tou bari baat hai yeh

meri khamosh nawae mein sada hai tou sahi

“Indeed, those who fear Allah - when an impulse touches them from Satan, they remember Him and at once they have insight.”

مفاہمت نہ کر ارزاں نہ ہو بھرم نہ گنوا

ہر اک نفس ہو اگر اک صلیب تب بھی نہیں

mafahmat nah ker arza'n nah ho bharam na ganwa

har ik nafas ho agar ik saleeb tabb bhi nahi

[bishopdane]

What do conscious people know, What being passionate is like

Fall in love, and then you will understand, What life is.

The moment our eyes met, the atmosphere brightened

Today I realized, What is the magic of love

Loosen tresses of hair taught the seasons poetry

Lowering gaze explained what being intoxicated feels like

I could never tell her, The state of my heart

And she never understood, What my silence meant

-Nida Fazli

May Allah protect us from loved ones who become our test. May Allah protect us from dependency on anyone but Him. Ameen.

[bazm-e-ishq]

ہم نے ان گلیوں میں محبت جنم لیتے دیکھی ہے۔ پروان چڑھتے دیکھی ہے۔ کھلکھلاتے دیکھی ہے۔ بدلتے دیکھی ہے۔ٹوٹتے دیکھی ہے۔ بکھرتے دیکھی ہے۔ ہم نے ان گلیوں میں محبت دفن ہوتے دیکھی ہے۔

I saw love being born in those streets. Growing up here. Laughing around here. Transforming here. Breaking here. Shattering here. I saw love being buried in those streets.

When Jaun Elia asked umr guzregi imtehan mei kya?

When RFAK sang sitaron se aage jahan aur bhi hain abhi Ishq ke imtehan aur bhi hain

When Faiz said aur bhi dukh hain zamane mei mohabbat ke siwa

When Oscar Wilde wrote to live is the rarest thing in the world some people just exist that's all.

When Naseer Turabi wrote zindagi khaak na thi khaak udate guzri

When Lucius Seneca wrote sometimes even to live is an act of courage

And When Lata Mangeshkar sang muskurayen toh muskurane ke qarz utarne honge

I believe that life isn't easy for any of us.
