Baki hain

This is the last post for 2012, and another outburst on the recent turn of events. Hope 2013 starts on a better note!

हमारी सब्र के और कितने इम्तिहान बाकी हैं
हश्र से भी आगे कितने तूफ़ान बाकी हैं

हर मोड़ पर खड़े हैं जो सब वहशी हैं या दीवाने
है कौन सी वो जगह जहाँ इंसान बाकी हैं

ज़ख्म दर्द ज़ुल्म तड़प सब दे चुका हम को
ज़माने के और क्या एहसान बाकी हैं

जुबां खामोश है, दिल नाशाद हैं लाचार हैं
हमारी आज़ादी की क्या पहचान बाकी हैं

हमारी हार का जश्न न मनाना मगर अभी
कि दिल में दबे हुए कुछ तूफ़ान बाकी हैं

Hi, I just quickly scoured through your blog. Actually Galib's poetry brought me here.

Here is one of my all time favorite poetry. I was wondering what you thought of it.

Ek Bas Tu Hi Nahin Mujhase Kafa Ho Baitha
Mainne Jo Sang Taraasha Tha Kuda Ho Baitha

Uth Ke Manzil Hi Agar Aaye To Shaayad Kuchh Ho
Shauq-E-Manzil To Mera Aablaa-Pa Ho Baitha

Masalaht Chhin Li Quwwat-E-Guftaar Magar
Kuchh Na Kahana Hi Mera Meri Kata Ho Baitha

Shukriya Ai Mere Qaatil Ai Masiha Mere
Zahar Jo Tuune Diya Tha Wo Dawa Ho Baitha

Jaan-E-Shahazaad Ko Min-Jumlaa-E-Aada Pa Kar
Huuk Wo Utthi Ki Ji Tan Se Juda Ho Baitha

Really looking forward to hearing from you.
