Na Ghubar Mein Na Gulab Mein Mujhe Dekhna Mere Dard Kee Quotes

Na ghubar mein na gulab mein mujhe dekhna
mere dard kee aab-o-taab mein mujhe dekhna
kisi dhun mein tum bhee jo bastiyon ko tyag dou
isee rah-e-khana-e-kharaab mein mujhe dekhna..

- Azeez Jehan (Ada Jafri)
modern-age First Lady of Urdu Poetry

Raaste badal jaate hain, manzilein badal jaati hain,
kyun nahin badalte dil jo taqdeerein badal jaati hain,
dil wahi rehta hai, yaadon ki annginat parchaaiyaan le ke,
aankhon ki nami chupa kar, nazrein badal jaati hain,
rooh rehti hai har lamha ashk-baar, lab hanste hain,
bahar aur andar ki kis tarah fizaaein badal jaati hain,
koi hota hai rafta-rafta zindagi se door, bahut door,
haathon ki yeh lakeerein kyun aksar badal jaati hain..!!

Ye hum tasleem karte hain hume fursat nahi milti
magar yeh bhi zara socho tumhain jab yaad karte hain zamaana bhool jaate hain..

Gul us shaakh se foot-te bhi rahe,
usi shaakh se toot-te bhi rahe,
samajhte hain naa-daan use be-sabaat
ubhartaa hai mit-mit ke nakshe-hayaat.. - Iqbal

Details:
be-sabaat means changing, something that is not fixed.
nakshe-hayaat means aim of life.

Yeh din yeh raat mujhe achche se lagte hain
Tumhe sochoon to saare silsile achche se lagte hain
bahut door talak chalna phir bhi wahi rehna
mujhe tum se tum tak ke faasle achche se lagtay hain..

Dil ki dunya kuch is tarha ujri Aamir
usne dard ka aadi bana ke dard dena chor diya..

gair kya janiye kyon mujhko bura kehte hain
aap kehte hain jo aisa to bajaa kehte hain..

waakai tere iss andaaz ko kya kehte hain
na wafa kehte hain jiss ko na jafa kehte hain..

ho jinhen shaq wo karein aur khudaon ki talaash
hum to insaan ko duniya ka khuda kehte hain..

teri suratt nazar hai teri surat se alaag
husn ko ahal-e-nazar husn numa kehte hain..

shikawe hizr kare kiss dil se
hum khud apne ko bhi apne se juda kehte hain..

teri rudade sitam ka hai baya naa-mumkiin
fayeda kya hai magar yun zaraa kehte hain..

log jo kuch bhi kahein teri sitam koshi ko
hum to in baaton ko achchha na bura kehte hain..

auron ka tajurba jo kuchh ho magar hum to "Firaq"
talkhie zist ko jeene ka mazaa kehte hain..

- Firaq Gorakhpuri
