khubsurat kalam

Waqiat kuchh ese roonuma ho ga'e : rind ik rat me parsa ho ga'e (azm Rahmani)

 

[azc]

Bazeecha e atfal he duniya mere age...hota he shab o roz tamasha mere age

 

[azc]

Kafir ki is ada ne bas mujhko mar dala :angra'i bhi woh lene na pa'e utha ke hath

 

[azc]

Kaya bala he khushi khuda jane : ham to bas nam sunte aa'e hen (khumar)

 

[azc]

Hamne apni muflisi ka is tarah rakha bharam : waste kam kr diye mghrur kehlane lage

 

[azc]

Wo jan hi ga'e k hame unse pyar he : ankho ki mukhbari ka maza hamse puchhiye

 

[azc]

Bhule hen rafta rafta unhe muddaton me ham : qiston me khudkushi ka maza ham se puchhiye

 

[azc]

Herat he tumko dekh ke masjid me aye khumar : kya bat ho ga'i Jo khuda yad aa gaya

 

[azc]

Mot aaye to din phiren shayad : zindagi ne to mar dala he

 

[azc]

Waqt parne pe hamne ye jana he : Jo he apna wo hi begana he

 

[azc]

Jane bahar phul nahi admi hun me : aja ki muskurae zamane guzar gae

 

[azc]

Ye kehna tha unse muhabbat he mujhko : ye kehne me mujhko zamane lage hen

 

[azc]

Badi jan lewa hen mazi ki yaden : bhulane ko ji bhi nahi chahta he

 

[azc]

Unse kuchh kene hi nahi deti : ye jo ek chiz dil ki dharkan he

 

[azc]

Ha'e re unki yad ka alam : me ye samjha ki khud wo aa'e hen

 

[azc]

Meherbani khukus hamdardi : hamne kya kya fareb khaey hen

 

[azc]

Rat baqi thi jab wo bhichhre the : kat ga'i umr rat baqi he

 

[azc]

Na wo dil he na wo shabab khumar : kisliye ab hayat baqi he

Assalamu alaykum

I really like classical Urdu literature and poetry. Altho my Urdu isn't strong enough to quite fully understand every word, but it's enough.

Were these written by a certain writer in particular?

^ wa alaikum assalam, sister : these are ash'aar of different shu'ra. Most of them belong to Khumar sahab. He was a great poet of this age. I shall be pleased if you share something in Urdu, either in this thread or any other.
