ranjish hii sahii dil hii dukhaane ke liye aa
aa phir se mujhe chhoR ke jaane ke liye aa

pahle se maraasim na sahii phir bhii kabhii tau
rasm-o-rahe duniyaa hii niibhaane ke liye aa
(maraasim : relationship; rasm-o-rahe duniyaa : manners, traditions of the world)
kis kis ko bataayeNge judaa’ii kaa sabab ham
tuu mujh se Khafaa hai to zamaane ke liye aa
kuchh to mere pindaar-e-muhabbat ka bharam rakh
tuu bhii to kabhii mujh ko manaane ke liye aa
(pindaar-e-muhabbat : love’s pride)
ek umr se huuN lazzat-e-giriyaa se bhii mahruum
ai raahat-e-jaaN mujh ko rulaane ke liye aa
(umr : ages; lazzat-e-giriyaa : joy of crying; mahruum : devoid; raahat-e-jaaN : comfort of the soul)
ab tak dil-e-Khush-feh’m ko tujh se haiN ummiideN

The following ashaar were written by Talib Baghpati but Mehdi Hassan sings them as part of this Ghazal.
maanaa kii muhabbat kaa chhupaanaa hai muhabbat
chupke se kisii roz jataane ke liye aa
(roz : day)
jaise tujhe aate haiN na aane ke bahaane
aise hii kisii roz na jaane ke liye aa
(bahaane : excuses)

Marvelous composition sung wonderfuly by Mehndi Hassan Sb
Hiya!! Thanks for the live version. And I am glad you posted the lines by Talib Baghpati as well. Many people miss crediting him.
In a ghazal as aweseome as this, it’s impossible to pick up the ‘best’ sher, but to me the foll. sher is v.special :
ek umr se huuN lazzat-e-giriyaa se bhii mahruum
ai raahat-e-jaaN mujh ko rulaane ke liye aa
First the SINGER -THE `MEHDI HASSAN`jo beshak gazal gayki ke betaj badshah haiN,jinka apna andaze bayaN hai awaz aur clssicki ka kudrati mel.
Ahmed Faraz Sahab ka kalam is bakhoobi se aashik ki majboori ka izhar hai jo bakhoobi jankar ye nahi maan sakta mahboob ab us se juda ho chuka hai.Ab bhi tinke ke pakde jhooti tassalli deyta hai.Faraz Sahab is ko duhrate haiN `jo bhi bichDe haiN Kab mile haiN Faraz phir bhi tuu inzar kar `Shayad`
One of the best ever written Ghazal.Thanx
thanks for including the meanings of the tougher words; Lazzat-e-giriyaa and compounds such as it evaded my understanding. Despite being a big fan of this Ghazal, I must say my understanding of it has just begun with your post. Beautiful.
this ghazal is about my love life; have no idea how’d i fit in but its truly absolutely a masterpiece
afterall i am faraz’s biggest fan
the KING salutes him for “jo qalb ko garma day jorooh ko tarpa day (IQBAL)” kind of SHAIREE
‘kuch to hai ki naa hi kahe hum
woh jo kahe to humne soon lii’
This is really touching and nice one…..
Great job…Thanks
Interesting…This is the first time i am reading urdu poetry other than that in the textbooks. I thought i should start with the best poet of present time, so i asked my father and he recommended Ahmed Faraz.
Beautiful work. It’s really touching. Thanks for adding the meanings of difficult words.
AHMED FARAZ ka naam tu kesi taaraf ka muhtaje nahain,main smajta hoon ke jahan jahan urdu zabaan bole aur samje jati hai,wahan wahan une ke naam ko sharfey taaraf hasel hai,AHMED sahaib ka eek buhat purana shar mujey jaad ayea hai,aariz kartey hain ke,
tuta to hoon magher abi bekhra nain FARAZ
merey badan pe jesey sazshoon ka jaal ho
thanks for this beautiful mehfil-e-mushaira,(site)
Ahmed feraz bne aise hi kuch sher likh ker urdu simphini me jo naqam bana liya hai woh bahut kam hi shayer ko muyessar hota hai. yeh ek nehayat hi khubsurat ghazal hai .jo ek dard bhare dil ke nehayet hi kareeb hai. is gazal ke lye aapka aur Feraz sahab ka shukrya.
Very Nice.Ahmad Faraz ka to andaaz hi alag hai phir Mehdi hasan ki Awaz…..Kya Kehne
the beauty of this ghazal rendered melodiously by the king of ghazals is due to the raaga yaman which touches the strings of our heart.
very nice Ghazal of Ahmad Faraz. thanks for this post.
Alaaa

ye aaKhrii shammeN bhii bujhaane ke liye aa
phir usii raahguzar par shaayad
ham kabhii mil sakeN, magar shaayad
jaan pehchaan se bhii kyaa hogaa
phir bhii ai dost Ghaur kar, shaayad
muntazir jin ke ham rahe un ko
mil gaye aur ham-safar shaayad
jo bhii bichhRe haiN kab mile haiN “Faraz”
phir bhii tuu intizaar kar shaayad
Inna Lillahe Wa Ina Eleihe Rajeoun
May hs soul rest in peace
Aamin
One of my all time favourites. Faraz sees pain inside out – demonstrates his levels of introspection! Amazing poetry and amazing ghazal and amazing raaga. Just perfect!
“ek umr se huuN lazzat-e-giriyaa se bhii mahruum
ai raahat-e-jaaN mujh ko rulaane ke liye aa”
This is like – The masochist cries, “Hit Me”. The sadist says, “No, I won’t”.
one of best of ahemad fraz bestof mehendihassansahib
fraz sahab ghazal kobakhubi gaya sache bhav gayki me piriay

It is appreciable and seems that the latent potential of the writer comes out on the surface.
