Faiz Ahmed Faiz ki yeh nazm sirf ek aashiq aur mehbooba ke darmiyan khāmushi aur yaadon ka fasaana nahin — balki ek khamosh inqilāb ki sarguzasht hai.Is mein mehbooba sirf ek shakhs nahin, balki watan, awaam, aur us behtar mustaqbil ki tajassur shuda tasveer hai jo kahin waqt ki raakh tale dab chuki hai.Faiz, ek musalsal be-awaaz sāniha likhta hai — jahan guzishta dard, na-aqli qurbat, aur bewafāi bhi izzat ke laayiq hain.Yeh nazm ek sabr-o-sukoon se bhara hua inqilābī izhār hai — jisme na ilzaam hai, na fariyaad — sirf intezaar hai us subah ka,jo phir se baad-e-sabā ke saath gulshan-e-yaad mein phool khilā sake.MUJHE YAKEEN HAI .. JAB DUNIYA KHATM HO JAAYEGI .. SAB TARAF ANDHERE KA MANZAR HOGA .. TAB KISI ROZ ISI EK NAZM SE ZINDAGI KA PATA MILEGA .love soz .

Faiz ki ye ek historic nazm hai jo unhone Julius aur Ethel Rosenberg ke khutoot se inspire ho kar likhi thi . Translation Aaga Shahid Ali ka hai Source Rekhta hai . Bohot waqt lag gaya kuchh naya post karne mein :( Nadi mein gehre utar kar jaise log Train se phenke hue sikke talaash karte hain Main bhi andar Bohot andar apne Ek gham talaash karta hun Shukriya Soz :)

Ye ek naya stanza kaha tha maine aur priya ne apni aawaaz mein piro diya . Aaj is saal ka aakhiri din hai .. aur ye kitna munaasib hai ye kehna aur mehsoos karna ki YE EK ANDHA SAFAR HI TOH HAI .. Har roz ek bujhte din ko apne badan se utaar kar rakhte jaate hain .. EK ANDHA SAFAR HAI YE KABHI RAAT TOH HONI HAI YE KHEL HAI SAANSON KA YAHAAN MAAT TOH HONI HAI YE JISM KI MITTI BHI EK DIN BIK JAANI HAI ZINDAGI AUR KUCHH BHI NAHIN TERI MERI KAHAANI HAI EK PYAAR KA NAGHMA HAI aawaaz : Priya kashyap bol : Soz Shukriya .

Aadaab Aaj subah phone scroll karte waqt Ehsaan Danish ki ye ek ghazal mili . Dafatan usko record bhi kar liya .. Yun hi ek random se recitation ki tarah Phir khayaal aaya ki bohot waqt hua Spotify par kuchh upload kiye Aur mujh ko hamesha yahi mehsoos hota raha hai Ki recitations jo yun hi kiye jaate hain Woh dar asal sabse behtar hote hain Khair Meri balcony mein Lily ka ek paudha hai Jis par ek naya phool aaya hai Ilias Babar Aawan ka ek sher yaad aa gaya : Phool kitaabein le jaa tanha rehne de Mera kamra , mera kamra rehne de Bohot ishq Soz

Ye nazm takreeban ek maheene pehle Kalimpong ki waadiyon mein record ki thi . Kaifi Azmi ki ye nazm duniya ki har ek Abhya ko dedicated hai . UTH MERI JAAN MERE SAATH HI CHALNA HAI TUJHE ishq soz

Mohsin Naqvi deewaano ke shaair hain .. Unki shaayari kisi khushbu ki tarah hai jo gaayab hone ke baad bhi maheeno yaad rehti hai .. Bahar-haal •Yaaqoot ek mehenge patthar ko kehte hain . •Gard aalood - dhool mein lipta hua ya sana hua Apna khayaal rakhiye Ishq Soz --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lafz--soz/message

Amjad saahab ki ye ek badi hi iconic ghazal hai . Woh saare log , jo kisi rishte se baahar toh aa gaye hain .. par mentally ab talak usi rishte ko jiye jaa rahe hain . Bus ki saans liye jaa rahe hain .. aur Gulzar ka ye sher padh rahe hain : Din kuchh aise guzaarta hai koi Jaise ehsaan utaarta hai koi Un saare logon ko amjad saahab ki ye ghazal intesaab karta hun . Iske har ek ashaar mein ummeed hai .Bohot zyaada ummeed . Background mein hum sabki favorite Debasmita faiz ko gunguna rahi hai . Suniye aur achchhi shaayari padhte rahiye Ishq Soz --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lafz--soz/message

Ahmed Faraz ke liye Gulzar ne ek nazm mein likha tha : Sookh gaye hain phool kitaabo'n mein Yaar 'Faraaz' bhi bhichhad gaye hain Shaayad mile'n woh khwaabo'n mein ! Ye ek nazm Ahmed Faraz ki .. jis mein ladka ek relationship chaahta hai .. par ladki ko relationship bojh lagti hai . Kitni relevant hai ye nazm .. aur shaayad har ek daur mein rahegi .. kyunki har daur mein human emotions itne hi relevant rahenge ..

Ibn e mariyam hua kare koi Mere dukh ki dawa kare koi Talking to Ghalib is like talking to your best friend . You can share all your secrets . Chacha Ghalib as he is known . He has a beautiful sher for every moment of life . I've been reading him since childhood . And I wanted to do something serious which i can dedicate to him . Will always be grateful to Debasmita , whom I call my Beghum Akhtar . Hai yahi rasm zindagi ki yahaan Roz thoda mara kare koi Shukriya Debasmita and Soz . --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lafz--soz/message

Ek nazm mein kitne saare lamhe lipte hote hain . Kabhi kholo toh gulaab ki sookhi hui pankhudiyo'n ki khushboo aati hai . Is ek nazm mein bhi waisi hi khushboo hai .. Jaan nisaar akhtar ka ek sher hai : Hum se maayus nah ho aye shab e dauraa'n ki abhi Dil mein kuchh dard chamakte hain ujaalon ki tarah Happy listening Soz .

The unwaan ( title ) of this nazm is " Andesha " , but most of the world knows it as " Baat niklegi toh phir " . The imagery is so beautiful .. The boy and girl are partying ways .. due to some social ( etc ) issue . As happens in our society . Still the boy is so concerned about the girl .. he is telling her .. when you are settled in your own world .. whatever may happen .. never ever talk about me with anyone .. otherwise the society will question your character . This is what selfless love is . Dedicated to every lover of this world . Who has loved and lost . Debasmita and Soz .

Mere lafz debaasmita ki aawaaz mein saans le rahe hain Main mehsoos kar raha hun halki khushboo Us ek phool ki Jo raat ki satah par Aahista aahista khil raha hai As I always say DEBASMITA ' S VOICE IS SILK खारे आँसू ... खारे खारे आँसुओं में ढाला तुझे अपने बदन पे खुश्बू बना के सम्भाला तुझे.. कभी कभी तो दीवान ए ग़ालिब सा ले के सोया बाँहों में मैंने तेरे लिए ही सात रंग के सपने चुने सपने सुरीले सपने Khaare aansu Khaare khaare aansuon mein dhaala tujhe Apne badan pe khushbu bana ke sambhala tujhe Kabhi kabhi toh deewan e ghalib sa leke soya baahon mein Maine tere liye hi saat rang ke sapne chune Sapne sureele sapne This is a new stanza written by me Magical voice is of debasmita ' s . Originally: Lyrics - gulzar Music - salil chowdhury Voice - Mukesh Gulzar happens to be my favourite writer . Also , Anand is my favourite movie . Baabumoshaai .. Zindagi badi honi chahiye Lambi nahin !! Happy listening Debasmita and Soz .

Apni ek nazm post kar raha hun : In a dream I am sitting beside you On a small railway station It's an evening of February In my diary There is moon Fragrance Cloud And a Tear A word has lost it's meaning You have dressed like Ana Karenina With a hibiscus in your hair You are whispering in my ears ″If you love me, as you say, Do so that I may be at peace " It's the time of arrival of the passenger train I'm sad you will meet the same fate Heer . दुनिया के किसी एक कोने में एक तनहा लड़की हीर बस उसी के नाम ये नज़्म ये रेसिटेशन सब कुछ सोज़ :)

Riyaaz Majeed ki ye ghazal .. kitni khoobsurat hai nah ? Ye ek recitation main un saare logon ko intizaab karna .. dedicate karna chaahunga jo pichhle lamhe ke saath beet gaye .. THEY HAVE NOT DIED .. THEY ARE ALIVE IN THE PAST Zindagi kya hai ? Kisi khwaab se guzarte hue dusare kisi khwaab tak pohochna .. Aur us khwaab se kisi agle khwaab tak . HUA HAI TUJH SE BICHHDANEY KE BAAD YE MA'ALOOM KI TU NAHIN THA TERE SAATH EK DUNIYA THI ~ Ahmed Faraz

मैं एक ख्वाब में बैठा ख़त लिख रहा हूँ तुमको माह ऐ सीताम्बर आ गया है ज़ुल्फ़ बढ़कर कमर तक आ रही होगी पिछली दफ़ा देखा था जब बॉब कट बालों में देखा था तुमको कभी कभी यूँ भी सोचता हूँ की बादलों पे पाँव रख कर हवाओं की पकड़ूँ कलाई चुपचाप चल कर पास आऊं और लगा दूँ ज़ुल्फ़ में तेरी चमकती शफ़क़ का इक सुनेहरा रेशम  कोई हेयर एक्सटेंशन जैसे  जाने क्या सोच कर जी भर गया  तो नीचे इक लम्हे को खाली कर के  चिपका दिया ..  कुछ वक़्फ़े बाद लिखा .. गुज़ारते हुए शब ए हिज्र जाना मैं खुद भी थोड़ा गुज़र रहा हूँ साँस की गाँठ आहिस्ता आहिस्ता खुल रही है ख़त के आखिर में लिखा था .. वो एक शख्स जो तुमको कभी  रास ना आया ..  और आँख से लेकर एक नन्हा आँसू अपना  रख दिया था सबसे नीचे  वही एक आंसू निशानी है मेरी  और वही मेरा दस्तखत होगा  - सोज़ Main ek khwaab mein baitha Khat likh raha hun tumko .. Maah e sitambar aa gaya hai Zulf badh kar kamar tak aa rahi hogi Pichhli dafa dekha tha jab Bob cut baalon mein dekha tha tumko Kabhi kabhi yun bhi sochta hun Ki baadalon pe paaon rakh kar Hawaaon ki pakdu'n kalaai Chupchaap chal kar paas aaun Aur laga dun zulf mein teri Chamakti shafaq ka ik sunehara resham Koi hair extension jaise Jaane kya soch kar ji bhar gaya Toh neeche ik lamhe ko khaali kar ke Chipka diya .. Kuchh waqfe baad likha .. Guzaarte hue shab e hijr jaana Main khud bhi thoda guzar raha hun Saans ki gaanth aahista aahista khul rahi hai Khat ke aakhir mein likha tha .. Woh ek shakhs jo tumko kabhi Raas naah aaya .. Aur aankh se lekar ek nanha aansu apna Rakh diya tha sabse neeche Wahi ek aansu nishaani hai meri Aur wahi mera dastakhat hoga ~ Soz. The vocals used in the background are of a wonderful singer i came across some days back . Her name is Brotoshree Pramanik . There are some videos on YouTube and vocals on Spotify . PS : I've recorded this audio in my room . So please bear with some unwanted background noises at some places . Sorry for that .

I'm leaving Delhi and shifting back to Lucknow . Will definitely see in dreams , perhaps someday, the images of the flat in which i stayed for last ten months . Like that sher : Abki hum bichhdey toh shaayad kabhi khwaabon mein mile'n . I don't know but i guess I'm afraid of changes . I have always imagined everything in static form . But this can never happen . Soz .

I could not sleep yesterday night .. was feeling some heaviness inside me .. like something breaking .. in the morning at around 5 ' o ' clock i picked up a collection of Md Alvi's poem and started reading them to myself .. i recorded this poem in my phone . The picture which I've used is of Rock beach , Pondy . It is the same place where the iconic song Aawarapan Banjarapan was shot . The song too strangely depicts toxic loneliness which matches with the mood of the poem . So happy to inform all my esteemed listeners that this podcast has now more than over 20,000 plays globally ( in more than a hundred countries ) . I have just one dream .. to touch the lives of a million people before death touches me . I'm glad this podcast is helping me do that . Cheers Soz ♥️

25th March 2023 ko raat 2 baje main in dono ghazals ko record kar raha hun .. ajeeb sannata kaano mein baj raha hai .. meri aawaaz mein bujhi bujhi si ek udaasi mehek rahi hogi .. main in ashaaron ki ungli pakad kar zindagi ke qareeb jaana chaahta hun ..

Tu mujhe itne pyaar se mat dekh .. ye nazm pehli martaba class 11th mein padhi thi .. Ali sardar jafri ki ek kitaab MERA SAFAR mein .. is nazm ke saffe par kaaghaz ki ek nanhi parchi daba kar rakh li thi .. us ek parchi par us ladki ka email ID likha tha jo umra mein mujhse saat baras badi thi ..school ke waqt ka pyaar mera .. main hamesha ye nazm usey padh kar sunana chaahta tha .. par aisa kabhi ho nahin paaya .. is baat ko beete dus - baarah ho gaye hain .. aaj finally ye nazm record kar ke duniya ke hawale kar di hai maine .. shaayad kisi roz pohoch jaaye us tak :)

Kabhi kabhi is one poem which I've recited more than a thousand times .. mostly whenever I'm drunk .. and the ashaar .. magar ye ho nah saka aur ab ye aalaam hai .. ki tu nahin tera gham .. teri justujoo bhi nahin .. hit you bad .. this i recorded yesterday late night .. i actually wanted to upload this tomorrow ( i.e 8th of March ) .. because tomorrow is sahir's birthday .. but then I thought ki it's a good idea to wish someone one day in advance .. it's a different feeling .. the picture which I've used is adorable .. the most beautiful lady ever on earth ( Madhubala ) holding sahir's book talkhiyan .. nothing can be better than this .. this poem is very close to my heart .. and i believe it will be taken in the same way by the world .. mujhe ab bhi yaad hai .. kisi ne kaha tha kabhi .. is ek nazm ko duniya mein tum se behtar koi bhi recite nahin kar sakta .. kai saal hue is baat ko .. that compliment is still so fresh in mind .. shukriya .. soz !

Hum ab us umra mein aa pohoche hain ki hum bhi yun hi .. dil se mil aate hain bus rasm nibhaane ke liye .. faiz ki ye poem ek friend se discuss karte hue realise hua ki in do lines se behatar toh kam hi lines hui hain Urdu poetry mein .. ye waada kiya tha ki faiz ki ye poem record karenge .. dus-baarah koshishon ke baad finally .. shukriya .. happy listening .. soz .

Moments are like butterflies .. if you catch them then the colour on their wings sticks to your fingers . This poem is one such hue which has stayed on my fingers for around two long years :)

This is a signature gulzar poem .. it was a random thought to recite and record this today morning .. if I talk about this one poem i can go on talking for hours .. the crux is .. THIS IS THE STORY OF EVERY POET .. OR EVERY ARTIST .. ONE HAS TO DIE EVERYTIME ONE CREATES SOME STUFF .. A POEM OR A PAINTING PERHAPS .. The picture is so apt .. it was shared by an azeez dost .. who clicked it in rishikesh .. happy listening .. shukriya :)

This poem is written by Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar ( who is a blessed multi-talented artist .. an amazing writer , director and sometimes even an actor ) . The rhythm is attractive . The words and thoughts are so blunt and that is what I find outstanding ( and this is the only reason I've recited this poem and included it in my podcast ) . The image used was shared by a beloved friend . Just see how attentively the girl looks at the boy when he is reading for her . This is the best relationship two people can have on this planet ( i.e a writer and a listener ) .

Poet : Qateel Shifaai . This one poem depicts the frustration of a poet . What is to be published and not to be published is decided by the publisher ( who are idiots with no poetic sense ) . In this poem the poet feels sorry for his beloved ( or the thoughts/pain of his beloved ) . These poems are actually the token of his beloved's thoughts/pain which will never get published and will ultimately get lost in dust . Happy listening :)

Debasmita is undoubtedly the most talented singer whom I've known over years .. this ghazal of Ghalib is just another proof of this .. very few artists have this ability to capture the mood of the listener .. Debasmita is one of them .. this is one ghazal which I always wanted her to sing .. and it definitely suits her style of singing ..

Shaayad kisi ke hijr mein .. yaa kisi ke intezaar mein shaayad .. ek cigarette liye balcony mein baitha hun .. shaam qatra qatra tapak rahi hai .. chaand ki athanni door ufaq par dikhaai pad rahi hai .. Nasir Kazmi ka sher yaad aa raha hai : Humaari ghar ki deewaaron pe naasir .. udaasi baal khole so rahi hai ! Needless to mention .. faiz's poem .

Kaifi Azmi ki ye nazm .. aap iska recitation sunte sunte ye imagine kar sakte hain ki koi naya naya aashiq apne kamre mein raat letkar chhat ko takk raha hai .. chhat ke slate par ye saare lafz dheere dheere ubhar rahe hain .. inhe kal subah woh ek safed kaaghaz par likh kar apni class mein padhne waali us ek ladki ko dene waala jo usko behadd haseen lagti hai ~ Abhishek :)

Debasmita sings this poem of Habib Jalib .. this poem is so so revolutionary .. and as I always say .. debasmita's voice is silk :)

Qateel Shifaai ki ek khoobsurat nazm .. Diwali ki raat shaayad likh rhe honge .. sabka hijr ek saa .. tamaam dard ek se .. main aksar sochta hun ki duniya mein har ek shakhs ke guzaare intezaar ko jodkar kitna bada waqt ka tukda banaaya jaa sakta hai .. jo khala mein saans lete kisi black hole se zyaada bohot zyaada bada hoga .

A random recitation of Gulzar's poem .. don't wanna write anything else !

Kabul ke guzre waqt .. puraane dino'n ke naam ye ek nazm .. waqt guzar kar shaayad jama hota rehta hai kahi'n .. koi ek surang hai jo kabhi nahi'n bharti .. ye nazm usi ki parchhaai hai .. shaayar hain janaab ABHISHEK .. jo photo istemaal ki hai woh tanyushenka.tumblr.com se li hai .

It's my birthday today 25th Aug .. I'm uploading this nazm of gulzar .. ye ek nazm bohot ummeed hai jisme .. main jab nahin rahunga tab shaayad phir kisi ek din se koi shakhs utthega .. ye lau jo bujh nahin sakti .. jalti rahegi . The picture which I have used was shot on my way from maldah to balurghaat .

Shaharyar ne ye nazm apni biwi najma ke liye likkhi thi .. kitni sundar nazm hai ye .. ek forties ya fifties ki umra ka koi shauhar kitni lazzat se apni family ko dekh raha hai aur ye nazm keh raha hai .. bachpan mein kisi akhbaar se kaat kar ye nazm maine kamre mein chipkaai thi :)

Khushiyon ki manzil dhundi toh gham ki gard mili .. chaahat ke naghme chaahe toh aahein sard mili .. bohot log in ashaaron ke saath connect kar paayenge yakeen hai mujhe .. duniya ke har ek shakhs ki us mohabbat ke naam jo kabhi mukammal nahin hui : )

Dr Bhaskar Mukherjee is a consultant psychiatrist in kolkata .. Sir ko dekh kar aksar khayaal aata hai woh hum sab se aage bohot aage .. waqt ke dusare sirey par khadey .. Apni ungliyon mein ek sulagati cigarette lekar bhool gaye hain .. kisi gehri soch mein doobey .. aankhon mein unki dheerey dheerey neend bhar rahi hai .. I've shared a father and son relationship with him : )

Maine ye ek khat 2019 mein likh kar hawaaon mein uda diya tha .. uske lafz hain jo aaj bhi mere andar goonj rahe hain .. pichhli shab isey padha aur record kiya .. ik roz yun hoga ki likhte likhte tumko thakk jaaunga .. mujhe ab usi ek din ka intezaar hai : ) The cover pic which I've used is of sunset point kasauli .. koi din tha woh bhi !

This poem has solace .. self acceptance .. is poem ko recite karne ka attempt duniya mein kisi ka bhi singular/unique nahin ho sakta .. it will always have an influence of Munir sahab's recitation of this poem .. happy listening :)

Meena Kumari is one person I've always found so fascinating .. har ek lafz unka unki personality ko aur maqbool banaata hai !

Aur bhi dukh hain zamaane mein mohabbat ke siwa .. raahatein aur bhi hain wasl ki raahat ke siwa .. this is undoubtedly the greatest poem of our generation by the most celebrated poet of this age .. Faiz Ahmed Faiz .. the poem holds historical importance in urdu literature .. Urdu poetry was previously confined to zulf , sharaab , mehboob , gham etc .. this poem is progressive and opened new horizons for Urdu poetry .. I always wanted to recite this one poem of Faiz .. happy listening :)

This poem was written by Nida Fazli on his father's death .. this is an amazing poem showing father-son relationship .. happy listening :)

Hawa Mein Nasha Hi Nasha, Faza Mein Rang Hi Rang Ye Kis Ne Pairahan Apna Uchal Rakha Hai ہوا میں نشہ ہی نشہ فضا میں رنگ ہی رنگ یہ کس نے پیرہن اپنا اچھال رکھا ہے

Tumhare rang mujh mein aur gehre hote jaate hain .. main darta hun .. mere ehsaas ke is khwaab ka anjaam kya hoga ?

Ye ek nazm us har ek mohabbat ki daastaa'n ke naam jiske badan par tamaam zakhm ubhar aaye hain .. jo is baras damm todd degi :)

This I recorded in January 2020 in Goa .. samandar hai .. sharaab hai .. waqt .. ghalib .. ret aur shaam .. sab hain :)

Priya Kashyap has done her diploma in music . A girl from banaras ( studied at banaras hindu University ) with in-depth knowledge of various musical instruments . This is the only record I had of this girl ( which she had sent me ) . I don't want the world to remain unaware of such a voice . Ki uska lehja aisa ki jaise koi assi ghaat par subah subah beghum akhter ko gunguna raha ho .. background mein Ganga ki banti bigadati lehron ka shor :)

The poet is janaab afzaal Ahmad Sayed .

Kuchh dino'n pehle ye khabar aayi ki Naseer sahab nahi'n rahe .. ye recitation mera Naseer sahab ke liye !

Aaj hi ye kuchh ashaar padhne ko mile .. khoob likha hai .. shaair hain janaab Ikram Basra .. happy listening :) just one correction .. shaair ka naam ikraam basra hai .. ghalat pronunciation ke liye maafi .

Nida Fazli ki ye ek nazm .. duniya ka har woh shakhs jo hijr mein hai usi ke naam :)

Ye nazm main ek hospital ke restroom mein baitha padh raha hoon .. baraabar mein hi ICU hai jahaan par do patients bohot critical hain .. woh shaayad kuchh waqt ba'ad nahi'n honge .. Gulzar ki ye ek kavita aur recitation mera unhi do patients ke naam !
