Meena Kumari : I Write, I Recite ( 2 of 8 )

Back


A ghazal by Meena Kumari in her own voice.

aablaapaa ko'ii is dasht meN aayaa hogaa
varnaa aaNdhii meN diyaa kis ne jalaayaa hogaa

(aablaapaa : blisters in foot, frenzied; dasht : ruins)

zarre zarre pe jaRe hoNge kuNvaare sajde
ek ek but ko Khudaa us ne banaayaa hogaa

(zarre : dust particles; sajde : prostations)

pyaas jalte hu'e kaaNToN kii bujhaa'ii hogii
riste paanii ko hathelii pe sajaayaa hogaa

(kaaNTe : thorns; hathelii : palm)

mil gayaa hogaa agar ko'ii suneharii patthar
apnaa TuuTaa hu'aa dil yaad to aayaa hogaa
