Sher on Hichki

It is often said that

you get a hiccup when someone remembers you. Reiterated over generations, this has turned into a popular belief and it has been used in literature in the same spirit. Here is a section for you to see how the poets make use of this belief, irrespective of the fact whether such a belief has any basis in reality.

āḳhrī hichkī tire zānūñ pe aa.e

maut bhī maiñ shā.irāna chāhtā huuñ

aaKHri hichki tere zanun pe aae

maut bhi main shairana chahta hun

Qateel Shifai

'amīr' ab hichkiyāñ aane lagī haiñ

kahīñ maiñ yaad farmāyā gayā huuñ

'amir' ab hichkiyan aane lagi hain

kahin main yaad farmaya gaya hun

Ameer Minai

mujhe yaad karne se ye mudda.ā thā

nikal jaa.e dam hichkiyāñ aate aate

mujhe yaad karne se ye muddaa tha

nikal jae dam hichkiyan aate aate

Dagh Dehlvi

hichkiyāñ raat dard tanhā.ī

aa bhī jaao tasalliyāñ de do

hichkiyan raat dard tanhai

aa bhi jao tasalliyan de do

Nasir Jaunpuri

hichkiyoñ par ho rahā hai zindagī raag ḳhatm

jhaTke de kar taar toḌe rahe haiñ saaz ke

hichkiyon par ho raha hai zindagi ka rag KHatm

jhaTke de kar tar toDe ja rahe hain saz ke

Natiq Gulavthi

hichkiyāñ aatī haiñ par lete nahīñ vo merā naam

dekhnā un farāmoshī ko merī yaad ko

hichkiyan aati hain par lete nahin wo mera nam

dekhna un ki faramoshi ko meri yaad ko

Sakhi Lakhnvi

ḳhabar detī hai yaad kartā hai koī

jo bāñdhā hai hichkī ne taar aate aate

KHabar deti hai yaad karta hai koi

jo bandha hai hichki ne tar aate aate

Afsar Allahabadi

tumheñ ye ġham hai ki ab chiTThiyāñ nahīñ ātīñ

hamārī socho hameñ hichkiyāñ nahīñ ātīñ

tumhein ye gham hai ki ab chiTThiyan nahin aatin

hamari socho hamein hichkiyan nahin aatin
