Hum ne Kya khoob ahmaqana jurrat kii thi,
Khaakh mein milni thi majazi joh muhabbat kii thi .

Some people are told they are dark in
their colour, a little hideous in their
appearance, like night.
I am yet to understand how no one,
no one sees poetry in them,
how they themselves cannot see the
moon they carry in their eyes, how they
bring peace to the broken.
If appearances could decide how a person is,
All fair ones would have been fair to the world !

As winter’s approaching, many apple tree twigs
are trimmed down .
The same trees, when spring comes, grow them
back and give fruits without complaining. Know why?
Because that’s their nature, they don’t take revenge on the hands that chop its parts down that’s how they send their roots deep and bloom .

I will meet you
with all my flaws,













Let me know
if you fall.

Joh lab se na nikle aur mile na aap ko,
Woh lafz barzakh mein ta-abdh rahe ge.

That, God sees
How you travel,
His chosen paths,
His chosen tests.
Under His hand,
Lies the written,
He who conquers
— Intentions and hearts.
By His mercy I swear,
Naive is the new sin.
I, even though bow,
And thank for those infinite covers,
He covers me with.
I seek refuge
from the enterprise,
His chosen ones
have set up.
I hope He sees
Auctions,
sees what's sold.
And sets forth
a new shore.

Abhi tu mujh se hai,
Ek zamana aisa aaye ga
Ki mein tum se ho jau gi.

Teri maum si ye ungliyah,
Mere haatho’n mein samati hain,
Fir ik daur ye bhi hoga,
Ki Tu haath uthaya ga,
Aur,
Mein duao’n mein samau gi.

—Mariya Mushtaq.

The butterfly has to be a

Mumkin na ho saka, ki tazleel hui aankh,
Uth kar keh sakey mein bei -gunah hu.
Phir Kya tha - zindaan hogayien,
Woh ankhien shamshaan hogayien !

Even your thoughts are a test for you.
