Kismat Ka Likha Bhi Ajeeb Hai

This Shayari is about our fate. It’s not our nature to hate another person. We all are eager to make friendship with others. But is it true with all of us? I believe that everyone has Deep down desire to associate with others, and to be friendly. There are situations when we come to a conclusion that enough is enough. Now Onwards I can’t keep making friendship. We start to think that I, Me and myself will be the solution for all the problems. And start believing the words “Everyone’s first and last love is Self Love” Do you agree with it?

Read on...

Hum Toh Har Ek Ko Apnakar Rishtha Banate Gaye.
Jahan Jahan Se Guzre Apni Yaad Chodte Gaye
Par Kismat Ka Likha Bhi Ajeeb Hai,
Gunegar Koi Aur, Hum Saza Paate Gaye.

Power of Prayer

Are you wondering whether I am teaching religion or spirituality? No! Don’t get lost with the subject line. It is a simple Shayari. Its simplicity has given it uniqueness.
They say that every prayer is heard. There are no unheard prayers. Prayer has that power which can move mountains, and open up the sky and bring back the dead.

Manzil Door Aur Safar Bahut Hai,
Chote Se Is Dil Ko Fikhar Bahut Hai,
Maar Daalthi Kab Ki Ye Duniya Hume,
Kambaqht Unki Duaon Mein Asar Bahut Hai.

Kush Naseeb Hote Hai Badal,
Jo Door Reh Kar Bhi Zamin Par Baraste Hai,

How Can You Forget Someone? (Sad Shayari)

How to forget a person who was in your every thought? How to forget a person whose presence you felt every second in you life? It’s not possible. Betrayal, disloyalty is something which is not in your imagination. But still people depart Hoping that they will find a better place to live, better person to accompany, better person to share life’s little secrets. But what we don’t understand is we live in a very small world which is not flat.

You try hard to forget the person whom you loved more than yourself. You spent sleepless nights, and at last you think that the memories are not troubling you anymore and you can live without that person and suddenly something unexpected happens.

Badi Koshish Ke Baad Usse Bhula Diya,
Uski Yaadon Ko Sine Se Mita Diya
Ek Din Fir Uska Paigam Aaya, Likha Tha “bhool jao Maujhe“.
Aur Bhula Hua Har Lamha Yaad Aaya.

Milne Ko Mil Jayenge Asmaan Kayi

Kabhi humsafar bichad jaata hai toh kya ho jata hai? Do we find another friend? Pain should not be shared. Yes I agree with it but how long you will bury that pain inside you? Every aspect of life reminds of her/him. Bhool ne se bhi bhool nahi paate .. Judaai is really tough..

Zuban Khamosh,
Aankhon Me Nami Hogi,
Milne Ko Mil Jayenge Asmaan Kayi,
Bas Sitaron Mein Unki Kami Hogi.

Us Shaam Ki Hamein Talaash Hai

Everyone waits for his/her love; no matter what. The wait which never ends, the wait which brings in thousands of memories with it. The wait which changes our lives, the wait which brings mixture of feelings, the wait which never allows us to trust her/him.
“Ye Shaam Kabhi Katam Na Hogi.” Mehfil mein bhi aapko tanha kar chod Jaayegi ye yaadein. Is it worth waiting? Or Shall I get up and just walk off?

Har Shaam Aati Hai Aapki Yaad Lekar,
Har Shaam Jati Hai Aap Ki Yaad Dekar,
Us Shaam Ki Hamein Talaash Hai,
Jo Aye Aap Ko Apne Saath Lekar.

The form ghazal is a collection of mulitiple ashaar - each of which should convey a complete thought without any reference to other shayari of the same ghazal.

It is not that I do not have faith in (the pains of) the day of judgement
But the night of separation is not less than the day of judgement.

Introduction

Hi All,
Sorry to post this introduction after posting several posts beforehand. Anyway here we go. Why this Blog?

This Blog is dedicated to Sher-O-Shayari. Here I will be posting Shayari’s which are my favorites. These Shayari’s are collected over a period of time. These are from my personal collection. I received these Shayari’s from my friends, relatives, family members and from other sources. I welcome you to contribute to this page. You can drop in a line here or you can leave your comments on these Shayari’s. I will try to post some good Ghazals too.

With most of the Shayari’s I have written my thoughts. These ideas and words are instant thoughts and may not completely reflect the true meaning of that Shayari. But this is my understanding. Your understanding of that Shayari would be different.

There is this beautiful quote by Kahlil Gibran
“A Great Singer is he who sings our silences.”

This line implies to Shayari’s too. Shayari’s give word to our silences and it conveys the message.

Before posting these shayari’s here did a search on http://www.google.com/, and other search engines too for the information on Shayari’s. But I am not happy with results. Wikipedia has a page but its waiting editing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shayari

Recent bollywood Hindi movie “Fanaa“had few Shayari’s. Aamir Khan and Kajol played the lead roles in the movie. These Shayari’s were blended nicely into the movie.

As far as Ghazals are considered there are pages you can refer.
