Sher on Neend
Sleep is one of the
subjects that the Urdu poets have written on quite frequently. It is important because it also brings dreams and with dream the beloved as well who is always craved for. The loss of sleep in love is yet another idea that engages the attention of poets. Here are some examples for you to enjoy.
niiñd to dard ke bistar pe bhī aa saktī hai
un kī āġhosh meñ sar ho ye zarūrī to nahīñ
E'en on a bed of pain, sleep well could come
In her arms,merely, recumbent, it need not be
nind to dard ke bistar pe bhi aa sakti hai
un ki aaghosh mein sar ho ye zaruri to nahin
E'en on a bed of pain, sleep well could come
In her arms,merely, recumbent, it need not be
niiñd aañkh meñ bharī hai kahāñ raat bhar rahe
kis ke nasīb tum ne jagā.e kidhar rahe
nind aankh mein bhari hai kahan raat bhar rahe
kis ke nasib tum ne jagae kidhar rahe
kal vasl meñ bhī niiñd na aa.ī tamām shab
ek ek baat par thī laḌā.ī tamām shab
kal wasl mein bhi nind na aai tamam shab
ek ek baat par thi laDai tamam shab
