Abbas Qamar Shayari: "Main Peeche Bhaagne Walon Mein Sabse Aage Hoon" | Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta

Abbas Qamar Shayari: "Main Peeche Bhaagne Walon Mein Sabse Aage Hoon" | Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta . “Main Peeche Bhaagne Walon Mein Sabse Aage Hoon.” Abbas Qamar’s shayari turns this contradiction into a search for himself. In this live mushaira at Jashn e Rekhta, he recites Urdu ghazals about loneliness, heartbreak, self respect and the struggle to understand your own feelings. The performance opens with a welcome and acknowledgements to Farhat Sahab, Shariq Sahab and Noman Sahab. His first ghazal moves between humour and unease, including “Main Khaufzada Khud Se Hoon Tum Kisse Dare Ho”. The next ghazal explores the wish to be heard, the effort to find yourself and the difficulty of forgetting someone. “Lagi Na Aankh To Sar Aaine Pe De Maara” brings that emotional strain into sharp focus. He then turns to a relationship that continues to shape life after its closeness has faded. The closing couplets reflect on endurance, the fear of death and how easily love defeats our confidence. For listeners who enjoy Abbas Qamar’s emotional shayari, contemporary Urdu ghazals and live poetry recitations, this performance brings those themes together in his own voice. .
