A ghazal by Meena Kumari in her own voice.

meraa maazii
merii tanhaa'ii kaa ye andhaa shigaaf
ye ke saaNsoN kii tarah mere saath chaltaa rahaa
jo merii nabz kii maanind mere saath jiyaa
jisko aate hu'e jaate hu'e be-shumaar lamhe
apnii sanglaaKh ungliyoN se gehraa karte rahe, karte gaye
kisii kii oak paa lene ko lahuu bahtaa rahaa
kisii ko ham-nafas kahne kii justujuu meN rahaa
ko'ii to ho jo be-saaKhtaa isko pahchaane
taRap ke palte, achaanak ise pukaar uThThe
'mere ham-shaaKh
mere ham-shaaKh merii udaasiyoN ke hissedaar
mere adhuurepan ke dost
tamaam zakhm jo tere haiN
mere dard tamaam
terii karaah kaa rishtaa hai merii aahoN se
tuu ek masjid-e-viiraaN hai, maiN terii azaaN
azaaN jo apnii hii viiraangii se takraa kar
dhakii chhupii hu'ii bevaa zamiiN ke daaman par
paRhe namaaz Khudaa jaane kisko sijdaa kare'

    of her poetry, talent, acting and Meena Kumari herself.. Such beautiful and emotional poetry this is ..

  • That is so beautifull and though I don't know a word I get what she says. Thx

  • Meena was and is a living legend of "REAL WOMAN".

    she lived, inspite of so much "DARD".
