Sher-o-Shayari 20
sub.h hotī hai shaam hotī hai
umr yūñhī tamām hotī hai
subh hoti hai sham hoti hai
umr yunhi tamam hoti hai
aas kyā ab to umīd-e-nā-ummīdī bhī nahīñ
kaun de mujh ko tasallī kaun bahlā.e mujhe
aas kya ab to umid-e-na-ummidi bhi nahin
kaun de mujh ko tasalli kaun bahlae mujhe
taḌaptī dekhtā huuñ jab koī shai
uThā letā huuñ apnā dil samajh kar
Any trembling object when I see
I pick it up, my heart it seems to me
taDapti dekhta hun jab koi shai
uTha leta hun apna dil samajh kar
Any trembling object when I see
I pick it up, my heart it seems to me
nāseh ḳhatā muaaf suneñ kyā bahār meñ
ham iḳhtiyār meñ haiñ na dil iḳhtiyār meñ
naseh KHata muaf sunen kya bahaar mein
hum iKHtiyar mein hain na dil iKHtiyar mein
ham ne paalā muddatoñ pahlū meñ ham koī nahīñ
tum ne dekhā ik nazar se dil tumhārā ho gayā
I nurtured it for ages but, it was nought to me
you saw it but a moment and it was your property
hum ne pala muddaton pahlu mein hum koi nahin
tum ne dekha ek nazar se dil tumhaara ho gaya
I nurtured it for ages but, it was nought to me
you saw it but a moment and it was your property
