Me Irl

ਜਾਨਤਾ ਹੂੰ ਆਪਕੋ ਸਹਾਰੇ ਕੀ ਜਰੂਰਤ ਨਹੀਂ,

Jaanta hun aapko sahaare ki zarurat nahi,

I know, that you do not need my support,

ਮੈਂ ਸਿਰਫ ਸਾਥ ਦੇਨੇ ਆਇਆ ਹੂੰ।

Mai sirf saath dene aya hun.

I've come as a companion.

Petition to stop calling it ' Aesthetic ' and start calling it ' the morbid longing for picturesque '

grounding techniques, ok 5 things i can see. ugly man. shitty palm tree. clear evidence of air pollution. conservative bumper stickers. roadkill. why do i feel worse

Aap ki yaad aati rahi raat bhar

Chandni dil dukhati rahi raat bhar

Gaah jalti hui gaah bujhti hui

Sham-e-gham jhilmilati rahi raat bhar

Koi khushbu badalti rahi pairahan

Koi tasvir gaati rahi raat bhar

Phir saba saya-e-shakh-e-gul ke tale

Koi qissa sunati rahi raat bhar

Jo na aaya use koi zanjir-e-dar

Har sada par bulati rahi raat bhar

Ek ummid se dil bahalta raha

Ik tamanna satati rahi raat bhar

-Faiz Ahmed Faiz

There are thousands of poets and then there is Faiz. Once you start reading him there's no going back. Also, what a beautiful ghazal this is.

وَتُعِزُّ مَن تَشَآءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَآءُ ۖ

Watu izzu man'tasha Watu zillu man'tasha

Aur (Allah) jise chahe izzat de aur jise chahe zillat de

(Al imran)

Jithe itr-an de vagde ne cho

Jaha itr-on ke behte hai jharne

Nii othe mera yaar vassda

vaha mera yaar basta hai

Jithe langdi e paun vi khalo

Jaha nikalti hai (pawan)hawa bhi khade ho ke

Ni othe mera yaar vasda

vaha mera yaar basta hai

Nange nange pairin jithe aun parbhaatan

Nange nange pair leke jaha aayein parbhaat(subah)

Reshma di nadi tari laun jithe raatan

Resham ki nadi mein nahati hai jahan raatein

Jithe chaandni ch nahaave khushboo

Jaha chandi mein nahati hai khusbhoo

Nii othe mera yaar vasda

Nii vaha mera yaar basta hai
