woh-chaand

itne ghane baadal ke peeche, kitna tanha hoga chaand.

[wohchaand]

homesick for a person who's sick of me

[wohchaand]

in the most human way, i feel jealous that someone else might be chosen by you in the ways i have been waiting for.

[wohchaand]

mil hi jayega kabhi dil ko yaqeen rehta hai

mil hi jayega kabhi dil ko yaqeen rehta hai // woh isy sheher ki galliyon mein kahin rehta hai

jiski saanso'n se mahekte the dar-o-baam tere // aey makaan bol kahan ab woh maki'n rehta hai

ik zamana tha ki sab ek jagah rehte the // aur ab koi kahin koi kahin rehta hai

roz milne pe bhi lagta tha ki jug beet gaye // ishq mein waqt ka ehsaas nahin rehta hai

dil fasurda tou hua usko dekh ke usko lekin // umr bhar kaun jawaa'n kaun hasee'n rehta hai

Ahmad Mushtaq

i was listening to "ranjish hi sahi" written by faraz sahab and sung by ustad mehdi hassan sahab just a few moments ago and to my surprise - this ghazal has so much hold onto my heart. the way my eyes automatically teared up at the first note makes me question my own sentiments sometimes - am i really over it ? or was it all just a facade to make peace with my bleeding heart?

i don't think anyone else will understand the impact this ghazal has on one's emotions until and unless they go through something that breaks them in the worst way possible.

tumne kiya na yaad kabhi bhool kar humein

humne tumhari yaad mein sab kuch bhula diya

waqt-e-rukhsat aa gaya dil phir bhi ghabraya nahin

usko hum kya khoyenge jisko kabhi paaya nahin

Parveen Shakir

[wohchaand]

bas yeh hua ki ussne takalluf se baat ki

aur hum ne rote rote dupatte bhigo liye

Parveen Shakir

[wohchaand]

main sach kahungi magar phir bhi haar jaungi

woh jhooth kahega aur la-jawaab kar dega

[wohchaand]

tum haqeeqat nahin ho hasrat ho

tum haqeeqat nahin ho hasrat ho // jo mile khwaab mein woh daulat ho

main tumhare hi dum se zinda hoon // mar hi jaoo'n jo tumse fursat ho

tum ho khushboo ke khwaab ki khushboo // aur utni hi be-murawwat ho

tum ho pahlu mein par qarar nahin // yaani aisa hai jaise furqat ho

tum ho angdaai rang-o-nikhat ki // kaise angdai se shikayat ho

kis tarah chhorh doon tumein jaana // tum meri zindagi ki aadat ho

kis liye dekhti ho aaina // tum tou khud se bhi khoobsurat ho

daastaan khatm hone wali hai // tum meri aakhri mohabbat ho

Jaun Elia

[wohchaand]

jab main tumhein nashaat-e-mohabbat na de saka

gham mein kabhi sukoon-e-rifaqat na de saka

jab mere sab charaag-e-tamanna hawa ke hain

jab mere saare khwaab kisi bewafa ke hain

fir mujhko chaahne ka tumhein koi haq nahin

tanha karahne ka tumhein koi haq nahin

Jaun Elia [ nazm - saza ]

[wohchaand]

hum tou samjhe the ki ik zakhm hai bhar jayega

kya khabar thi ki rag-e-jaan mein utar jayega

younhi mausam ki ada dekh ke yaad aaya hai

kis qadr jald badal jaate hain insaa'n jaana

Ahmad Faraz

[wohchaand]

unko bhi humse mohabbat ho zaroori tou nahin

ek si dono'n ki haalat ho zaroori tou nahin

[wohchaand]

main jo shayar kabhi hota, tera sehra kehta

chaand ko chaand na kehta, tera chehra kehta

[wohchaand]

dukh pichla hi jogi sanu dena, te biba sada dil mod de

If you are to give me only the previous sorrows (again), then dear one, return my heart.

[wohchaand]

unke andaaz-e-karam

unke andaaz-e-karam unpe woh aana dil ka // haaye woh waqt, woh baatein, woh zamana dil ka

na suna ussne tawajjoh se fasana dil ka // zindagi guzri magar dard na jaana dil ka

kuch nayi baat nahin husn pe aana dil ka // mashgala hai yeh nihayat hi purana dil ka

woh mohabbat ki shuru'aat woh be-thaah khushi // dekh kar unko woh fulay-na-samana dil ka

dillagi dil ki lagi ban ke mita deti hai // rog dushman ko bhi ya rabb na lagana dil ka

ek tou mere muqaddar ko bigada ussne // aur phir uss par ghazab ha'nss ke banana dil ka

mere pehloo mein nahin, aapki muthi mein nahin // be-thikaane hai bohat din se thikaana dil ka

woh bhi apne na hue, dil bhi gaya haatho'n se // aise aane se toh behtar tha na aana dil ka

khoob hain aap, bohat khoob magar yaad rahe // zeb deta nahin aiso'n ko satana dil ka

be-jhijhak aa ke milo ha'ns ke milao aankhein // aao hum tumko sikhaate hain milana dil ka

naqsh-e-bar ab nahin, wehem nahin, khwaab nahin // aap kyun khel samajhte hain mitana dil ka

hasratein khaak hui'n, mit gaye armaa'n saare // lutt gaya koocha-e-jaana'n mein khazana dil ka

le chala hai mere pahloo se ba-sad shouq koi // ab tou mumkin nahin lout ke aana dil ka

unn ki mehfil mein 'naseer', unn ke tabassum ki qasam // dekhte reh gaye hum haath se jaana dil ka

Peer Naseer-ud-din Naseer

[wohchaand]

jahaa'n mein aisa kaun hai, ke jisko gham mila nahin
