Saas

This poem is in Urdu... about the misgivings of true love. You know basic "Romeo and Juliet" =P

Ek dafa mere samne aajao,

Aur batao, ki ankhein kya chize hai.

Ek manzil pochne tak dekhao,

Ki saas tumhare bina kya khel hai.

 

Araam karne do, aur dubara mut bolna,

Ki saas jho dil mein baras raha hai,

Kya pyar hai mohabbat ka,

Yah dil dharak raha hai bin jawabo ka.

 

Koi adaab bole, aur koi salam,

Yeh kya duniya bana ke ruk diya,

Jho salam dua mein har chize hai,

Aur ishq ki aag koi chize nahi.

 

Ehsaas karke aur pyar karke,

Sawaal poochne mein kya faida,

Jho mere pyar kanjoos ho jaye,

Phir saas lehne mein kya faida.
