Kabhi Kabhie The original Poem

The original poem recited by the poet Sahir Ludhianvi himself. Its in urdu and a rare one to find!

Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khyal aata hai
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khyal aata hai
Ke zindagi teri zulfon ki naram chhaaon mein guzarne paati
To shahdaab ho bhi sakti thi
Ye teergi jo meri zees ka mukkaddar hai
Teri nazar ki shuaaon mein kho bhi sakti thi
Ajab na tha ke main begaana-e-alam reh kar
Tere Jamaal ki raanaion mein kho rehta
Tere gudaas badan teri neembaand aankhein
Inhi haseen hassen fasaanon mein main kho rehta
Pukarti mujhe jab talkhiyan zamane ki
Tere labon se halaawat ke ghoont pi leta
Haya cheekthi firti barhe-na-sur
Aur mein ghaneri zulfon ke saaye mein chhup ke jee leta
Magar yeh ho na saka aur ab yeh aalam hai
Ke tu nahi tera gam teri juus-t-juu bhi nahi
Guzar rahi kuchh is tarah se zindagi meri
Jaise isse kisi ke sahare ki aarzoo bhi nahi
Zamane bhar ke dukhon ko laga chukka hun gale
Guzar raha hun kuchh anjani reh-guzaron se

Master piece of Urdu poetry. There is no other language that can convert human feeling into words so perfectly as does Urdu.

@tayyabrana1 If I have one regret in life, it is that I never learnt urdu. I wish I could read and write urdu. What a sweet language. Everyone is jaan. Ammi-jaan, abba-jaan, khaala-jaan....

Punjabi is much more expressive than Urdu!

@shootforthemoon89 We can swear a lot better in Punjabi than in Urdu I think. May be thats what you mean by "Punjabi is much more expressive than Urdu!"

I think that Urdu poetry is one of the most beautiful things in this world. Poetry, as such, is not much followed in India, Urdu poetry even less. There had been some innovative initiatives in India to promote Urdu like usage of Devnagri script. However it has not had the desired effect.

remember sanskrit is the mother of most of the proto-indian languages. this includes hindi as well as persian. so if u mix hindi with persian u are still under the same umbrella.Oh i forgot religious bigotory.

@guruofsex

No, I meant that Punjabi is more raw and earthy and captures the human spirit naturally whereas Urdu comes across trite and overly polite. LOL, you right about punjabi and cursing.

[tayyabrana1]

Yes Punjabi is also very expressive, infact my mother language is Punjabi and I can speak Punjabi in true Malwa accent, But Punjabi lacks sweetness of Urdu and borrows Persian words for illustrative purpose, as does Urdu. For example read of Waris Shah, most of words are from Persian.
