Grief having no ending!

By Mian Usman • Aug 24th, 2009 • Category: Misc • No Responses

I have been asked to share my poetry with every body at TPS.  The below I wrote in respect of the parents who lost their little kids in very early years after birth.

This is dedicated to my Friend Ummar’s beautiful Daughter “Sara” who left him on her very first birthday!

” Adhoori Talaash”

Hanstay Muskaratay phool, woh kyun chalay gae?

dil ko jo thay lubahtay, woh kyun chalay gae?

Jinhayn dekh kar hum jeetay thay jee bhar kay

massoom se farishtay, woh kyun chalay gae?

unkay saath jeenay ki aadat ho chuki thee

Zindagi kaat tee hae ab, woh kyun chalay gae?

dil udaas hae yaadoon mayn, rooh ho chuki ghayal

jo jeenay ki wajah thay, woh kyun chalay gae?

unkay nannay hathoon ka lams, unkay masoom kehkahay

ab bhee rulatay hayn har pal, woh kyun chalay gae?

jigar kay tukray kat janay par kahan ho ga sabr

barsoon baad bhee dil hae udaas, woh kyun chalay gae?

mat roko humayn jee bhar ke ro lenay do unki yaad mayn

humaari jaan, woh humaara sarmaya, woh kyun chalay gae?

Click For More Articles By Mian Usman Writing poetry and articles is one my favorite passtimes. I write truth openly in a straight forward manner and dont believe in an indirect hinting towards the truth. Am an ordinary man with an extra ordinary wish to see peace, harmony, justice and equality for common man before I die. For that I have decided to write my inner thoughts on the day to day sufferings around us. Silence can not solve any problem it rather increases it. My struggle will end with me. Am grateful TPS to provide me an opportunity to join a group of very talented writers from whome am learning a lot. Am not a man of letters so you would find my expression not as good as my seasoned and experienced partners who regularly write, my focus is primarily on the message in my articles and TPS is helping me to convey it to a lot of people.
