Urdu Language Quotes

Yeh parda-dari hai ya tamasha, mujhi mein reh kar mujhi se parda,
Tabaah karna agar hai mujhko naqab utha aur tabaah kar de..

Kuch aise dost meri nighah mein hain qatil
ke mujh ko jis se baaz rakhein khud usi pe marte hain..

तुम्हारा ख़्वाब जैसे ग़म को अपनाने से डरता है ,
हमारी आखँ का आँसू ख़ुशी पाने से डरता है ,
अजब है लज्ज़ते गम भी, जो मेरा दिल अभी कल तक,
तेरे जाने से डरता था , वो अब तेरे आने से डरता है.......!

Utha ke phool ki patti nazakat say masal daali
Isharay say kaha hum dil ka aisa haal karte hain..

Yun na mil mujhse khafa ho jaise,
saath chal mauj-e-darya ho jaise

Log yun dekh kar hansi dete hain,
tu mujhe bhool gaya ho jaise

Ishq ko sherek ki had tak na badha,
yun na mil humse jaise ho khuda

Maut bhi aai to iss naaz ke saath,
mujh pe kia ho ehsaan jaise

Aise anjaan bane baithe ho,
tum ko kuch bhi na pata ho jaise

Hichkiyaan raat ko aati hi hain,
tune phir yaad kiya ho jaise

Zindagi beet rihi ha daalish,
ek be-jurm saza ho jaise..

Theher-theher ki bahut dilkusha hai yeh manzar,
zaraa main dekh to lu taabnaki-e-shamsheer..
