ज़िन्दगी तो बेवफ़ा है,
जाने कब गले लगा ले
और कब ख़फा हो जाये,
पर मौत अपने वादे से
कभी नहीं मुकरती
बस एक बार जो गले लगती है
सदा के लिए अपना बना लेती है!
Life is two faced
one never knows,
when it embraces
or when it leaves us bitter
but, death never goes
back on its word
once it embraces you
it makes you its own!
Very true.. death relieves us from all our pains given by life.. Death loves us more than life.. 💕😍😇👌👌👌

खूबसूरत और कठोर सत्य को दर्शाती कविता।
जिंदगी भर भटकते रहे,प्रेम को तरसते रहे,
जिंदगी थी बेवफा फिर भी उसी पर मरते रहे,
जब थके जीवन सफर में पास कोई ना रहा,
तब सहारा मौत थी सब दर्दे गम मिटते रहे।

Indeed! Those were the days with poets like Sahir Ludhianvi, Shailendra , Majrooh Sultanpuri, Shakeel Badyuni, Kaifi Azmi giving soul to the songs! Nowadays the only ones worth listening to are Gulzar sahab, Irshad Kamil, Amitabh Bhattacharya and Javed Akhtar! And also Piyush Mishra though he doesnt write songs but his poetry touches the heart!

Me too 😣😣 there is one thing I remember….quite sometime ago i was reading news that in some village farmers were very fed up of wild boars destroying crops so they came up with a novel idea – they would blare honey singh’s songs over loudspeakers at night and that made wild boars run away from crops!! 😂
