Sher-o-shayri
Category - Art and Culture
“When words are not enough to express emotions, feelings or situation, sher-o-shayri comes for rescue”
--Anononymous
Sher is a form of poetry. Originally started with Urdu and Persian languages and then other languages (like Hindi, Gujarati and Punjabi) adopted it.
Be it the expression of love, comparison of beloved, or the pain of separation or even humor, shers are best to describe them all.
I like to use shers as a part of my vocabulary, wherever applicable… so do many people, but am very bad at remembering the author of the sher. Anyways, the default author of any complicated sher would be “Mirza Ghalib” for me, ha ha… (Don’t mind)
I wanted to have a collection of shers, but then thought it would be a girlish thing to do that. (Really??)
And the one sher that is revolving in my mind now is
“Hazaron khwahishen aisi ki har khwahish pe dam nikle,
Bahut nikle mere armaan, lekin phir bhi kam nikle…”
Long live Ghalib!!

Hum bhi wahin moujood the,
Hum se bhi sab pucha kiye....
Hum hass diye, hum chup rahe,
Manzoor tha, parda tera....

My Recent Fav. :
"Ta'alluq torta hun to mukammal tor deta hun
Jise main chhor deta hun, usay main chhor deta hun.
Nahin yaqeen rakhta main kisi kachche ta'alluq par
Jo dhaaga tootne wala ho usko tor deta hun.
Muhabbat ho k nafrat ho, bharaa rehta hun shiddat se
Jidhar se aaye yeh dariya udhar hi mor deta hun.
Ab tak wahi bachpan wahi takhreeb-kaari hai Adeem
Qafas ko tor deta hun, parinday chhor deta hun."
---Adeem Hashmi
Dil Main Na Ho....
"Dil main na ho jurrat to muhabbat nahi milti
Khairaat main itni badi daulat nahi milti
kuchh log yunhi shahar main humse bhi Khafaa hain
har ek se apani bhi tabiyat nahi milti
dekhaa thaa jise maine koi aur thaa shaayad
vo kaun hai jis se teri surat nahi milti
hansate huye cheharon se hai baazaar ki zeenat
rone ko yahaan vaise bhi fursat nahi milti

Kuch Bhi Bacha Na Kahne Ko Har Baat Ho Gayi,
Aao Kahin Sharab Piye Raat Ho Gayi;
Naksha Utha Ke Koi Naya Shahar Dhoondhiye
Ab To Is Shahar Mai Sabse Mulakat Ho Gayi.

Thanks Tripathi ji
Bekhudi Ki Zindagi Hum Jiya Nahi Karte,
Yun kisika ka Jaam Hum Piya Nahi Karte.
Unse Kehdo Mohabbat Ka Izhaar Aakar Khud Karein,
Yun Kisika Peecha Hum Nahin Karte….

Tere Dile mein meri saanson ko panah mil jaaye
Tere Ishq mein meri Jaan Fanaa Ho jaaye….
- Fanna
Dur Humse Jaa Paoge Kaise,
Humko Bhool Paoge Kaise.
Hum Who Khushbu Jo Saanson Mein Utar Jaye,
Khud Apni Saanxon Ko Rok Paoge Kaise..
-- Fanna
Ankhen to pyar me dilki zuban hoti hai,
sachi chahat to sada bezuban hoti hai,
pyar mai dard bhi mile to kya gabrana,
suna hai dard se chahat aur jawan hoti hai....
- Fanna
Aao aaj hum apna hunar aazmate hain,
Tum teer aazmao,
Hum jigar aazmate hain!!
one more original version
Aa Sikandare hunar aazmaiya,
Tum teer aazma, hum jigar aazmaiya
Dheere Dheere kohraa sa chaane lagaaa,
Mehefil ki koi aaj koyal ki dhun gaane lagaaa,
doh aankhon ka ek samaa chaane lagaaa,
jis mein dooba saara aasmaa nazar aane lagaaa,
chand unki khubsoorati bataane lagaaa,
poocha humne itna haseen kaun hain zameen par yahaan,
jis mein madhosh saara aalam nazar aane lagaaa,
chand koh dekha, taaro koh dekha, samandar koh dekha, kinaaro koh dekha,
bas har taraf seh mere mehboob ka naam aane lagaaa.

An inspirational shayari by Amir Khusro
Aaj Basant manaley suhangan
Aaj basant manaley
anjan manjan kar piya
lambay neher lagaaye
tu kya sovay neend maasi
so jaagay teray bhaag, suhagan
aaj basant manalay...;
oonchi naar kay oonchay chitvan
ayso diyo hai banaaye;
Shah-e-amir tohay dekhan ko,
nainon say nain milaaye,
Suhagan aaj basant manalaay..

NA HOYE MOHABBAT MUJHE KISI SE TERE SIWA
NA RAHI AB ZAROORAT KISI KI TERE SIWA
DHONDH RAHI THI YEH ANKHAIN JISKO SADIYOON SE
DUNIYA MEIN WOH CHEHRA KISI KA NAHI TERE SIWA
GULAAB SE LAIKAR US AASMAAN K CHAAND TALAK
KISI NE ASA HUSAN NA PAAYA BAS TERE SIWA
TERE NAAM SE BEET RAHI HAY ZINDAGI AMAN KI
K KISI AUR KI YAAD EBADAT NA RAHI TERE SIWA
Here comes the funny shayari !!
wah khub he divane,
tune kya suzi he dur ki,
surat he langur ki
or kwahish he hur ki.
(langoor ke muh me angoor... )
kabhi kisi ko mukammal jahaan nahi milta
kahin zami to kahin aasmaa nahi milta
jise bhi dekhiye vo apne aap mein gum hai
zubaa mili hai magar humzubaa nahi milta
bujhaa saka hai bhala kaun vaqt ke shole
ye aisi aag hai jisme dhuaa nahi milta
tere jahaaN mein aisa nahi ki pyaar na ho
jahaa ummeed ho iski vahaaN nahi milta.
--Nida Fazli
Nasha Sharaab Mein Hota To Nachti Botal
Maikade Jhoomte Paimaanon Mein Hoti Hulchul
Uski baatein tho phool ho jaise...
Baaki baatein babool ho jaise
Uska haskar nazar jhukha lena
Saari shartein kubool ho jaise
Kithni dhilkash hay uski khamoshi
Saari baatein phizool ho jaise
Teraa chehara kitana suhaana lagata hai
Tere aage chaand puraanaa lagataa hai
Tirache tirache teer nazar ke lagate hain
Seedhaa seedhaa dil pe nishaana lagata hai
Aag kaa kya hai pal do pal mein lagati hai
Bujhte bujhte ek zamaana lagata hai
Sach to ye hai phool ka dil bhi chhalli hai
Hansata chehara ek bahaana lagata hai
Kal chaudvin ki raat thi
Shab bhar raha charcha tera
Kuch ne kaha yeh chaand hai
Kuch ne kaha chehra tera
Hum bhi vahin maujood the
Humse bhi sab poochha kiye
Hum has diye, hum chup rahe
Manzoor tha parda tera
Is shaher mein kisse mile
Humse to chhooti mehfilein
Har shaks tera naam le
Har shaks deewana tera
Koonche ko tere chhodkar
Jogi hi ban jaaye magar
Jungle tere, parbat tere
Basti teri, sahera tera
Bedard sunni ho to chal
Kehta hai kya achchhi ghazal
Aashiq tera, ruswaa tera
Shaayar tera, inshaa tera
La pila de saqiya paimana paimane ke baad
Hosh ki baate karunga hosh me
aane ke baad
Waqt do hi zindagi me guzre hai kathin
Ek tere aane se pahle ek
tere jane ke baad.

Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Dekhna hai zor kitna baazuay qaatil mein hai
Karta nahin kyun doosra kuch baat cheet,
Dekhta hun main jise voh chup teri mehfil mein hai
Ay shaheed-e-mulk-o-millat main tere oopar nisaar,
Ab teri himmat ka charcha ghair ki mehfil mein hai
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Waqt aanay dey bata denge tujhe ay aasman,
Hum abhi se kya batayen kya hamare dil mein hai
Khainch kar layee hai sab ko qatl hone ki ummeed,
Aashiqon ka aaj jamghat koocha-e-qaatil mein hai
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Hai liye hathiyaar dushman taak mein baitha udhar,
Aur hum taiyyaar hain seena liye apna idhar.
Khoon se khelenge holi gar vatan muskhil mein hai,
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Haath jin mein ho junoon katt te nahi talvaar se,
Sar jo uth jaate hain voh jhukte nahi lalkaar se.
Aur bhadkega jo shola-sa humaare dil mein hai,
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Hum to ghar se nikle hi the baandhkar sar pe qafan,
Chaahatein liin bhar liye lo bhar chale hain ye qadam.
Zindagi to apni mehmaan maut ki mehfil mein hai,
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Dil mein tuufaanon ki toli aur nason mein inquilaab,
Hosh dushman ke udaa denge humein roko na aaj.
Duur reh paaye jo humse dam kahaan manzil mein hai,
Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai.
Dekhna hai zor kitna baazuay qaatil mein hai.
Yoon khara maqtal mein qatil keh raha hai baar-baar,
Kya tamanna-e-shahaadat bhi kisi ke dil mein hai.
Aasmano se kaho ki agar hamari udaan dekhni hai to apna kad aur uncha kar lo
(can anyone complete this?)
kadam kadam pey hawa ki simat ka dihan rakhna
mushkil waqt main dosti ko yaad rakhna
"humari yadoon ki khushboo zaror aey gi tum bas apni
NAAK SAAF rakhna
Funny Shayari
Andaaz apne dekhte hain ...aaiyine mein woh
Aur yeh bhi dekhte hain ki koi dekhta na ho...
yeh dil kya hai - pighla hua sona hai
(what is this heart made of? - molten gold)
tum se to badi ummidein thi humari, par dil hi tod diya hamara... khair isme tumhari koi galati nahi, galati to kambakht tumhare aur mere dil ki hai... mera dil hai ki tumhe chahta hai, aur tumhara dil shayad kisi aur ko chahta hai... is baat ka to kisi ko pata nahi
pehle bhi kitni baar umidon pe pani fira hai, har baar lagta hai ki is baar kuch aur hi baat thi ... ab bhi dil mein taar bajta hai
it's soft
(samajne wale samajh gaye)
Today this one sounds meaningful...
