Fazal Tabish's ghazal: Vahi do-chaar chehre ajnabii se...


Fazal Tabish was a prominent Urdu poet. He was based in Bhopal. He was primarily a poet but also wrote fiction and plays. Fazal was also secretary of the Madhya Pradesh Urdu Academy.

Read his ghazal:

ये सन्नाटा बोहत महँगा पडेगा
उसे भी फूट कर रोना पडेगा

वही दो चार चेहरे अजनबी से
उन्हीं को फिर से दोहराना पडेगा


कोई घर से निकलता ही नहीं है
हवा को थक के सो जाना पडेगा

यहाँ सूरज भी काला पड़ गया है
कहीं से दिन भी मंगवाना पडेगा

वोः अच्छे थे जो पहले मर गए हैं
हमें कुछ और पछताना पडेगा

फज़ल ताबिश

Now read in Roman script:

ye sannaaTaa bohat mahangaa paDegaa
use bhii phuuT kar ronaa paDegaa

vaahii do chaar chehre ajnabii se
unhiiN ko phir se dohraanaa paDegaa

koii ghar se nikaltaa hii nahiiN hai
havaa ko thak ke so jaanaa paDegaa

yahaaN suuraj bhii kaalaa paD gayaa hai
kahiiN se din bhii mangvaanaa paDegaa

voh achche the jo pahle mar gaye haiN
hameN kuchh aur pachhataanaa paDegaa

Fazal Taabish
