मिले ना फूल तो काँटों Quotes

मिले ना फूल तो काँटों से दोस्ती कर ली
इसी तरह से बसर हमने ज़िन्दगी कर ली

अब आगे जो भी हो अंजाम देखा जाएगा
खुदा तराश लिया और बंदगी कर ली

नज़र मिली भी न थी और उनको देख लिया
ज़ुबान खुली भी न थी और बात भी कर ली

वोह जिनको प्यार है चांदी से , इश्क़ सोने से
वही कहेंगे कभी हमने खुदकुशी कर ली

- अनोखी रात (1968)


Mile na phool to kanton se dosti kar li
Isi tarah se basar humne zindagi kar li

Ab aage jo bhi ho anjam dekha jaayega
Khuda tarash liya aur bandagi kar li

Nazar mili bhi na thi aur unko dekh liya
Zuban khuli bhi na thi aur baat bhi kar li

Woh jinko pyaar hai chaandi se, ishq sone se
Wohi kahenge kabhi humne kudkushi kar li

Album : Anokhi Raat (1968)

Koi aakhda rabb da roop ehnu,
koi rab da ehnu vajeer aakhe,
rabb v ohnu nai mod sakda,
gal mauj vich jehdi fakeer aakhe..

Two rules of spiritual training:
One, the teacher is always right and
Two, when you think the teacher is wrong, refer to rule one.

Our body is the Bodhi-tree,
And our mind a mirror bright.
Carefully we wipe them hour by hour,
And let no dust alight.

There is no Bodhi-tree,
Nor stand of a mirror bright.
Since all is void,
Where can the dust alight?

Jab tak tujh mein itraana or gussa karna baaki hai,
tab tak apne aap ko ahle-ilm mein shaamil mat karna.
- Gause-Aazam

Wo roop tha ya rang tha
har pal jo mere sang tha
maine poocha tu kaun hai
usne kaha teri nazar..

The purpose of a fishtrap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten.
The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten.
The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten.
Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to. - Chuang-Tsu
