یہ بوند بوند بارش , یہ کرن کرن اجالا

یہ بوند بوند بارش
یہ کرن کرن اجالا
میری زات کی تشنگی پر
میری روح کی سلوٹوں پر
یوں پڑیں کہ جیسے
کسی مہرباں نے آ کے
رکھا ہاتھ مشفقانہ

یہ بوند بوند بارش
یہ کرن کرن اجالا
جو پڑا تو ایسے چمکا
میری زیست کا ستارا
یہ چھنچھناتی کرنیں
یہ سرر سرر ہواییں
یہ بگل ہیں روشنی کے
نئی صبح کے ہیں اشارے
میں جو مدتوں سے بیٹھا
ڈھونڈھتا تھا شرارا
یہ پڑیں تو پھر سے چمکا
میری زیست کا ستارا

Yeh boond boond barish
Yeh kiran kiran ujaala
Meri zaat kei tishnagi per
Meri rooh kei salwatoon per


Yun padin kei jaisey
Kissi meherban nei aa kei
Rakha haath mushafiqana

Yeh boond boond barish
Yeh kiran kiran ujaala
Jou pada tou aisey chamka
Meri zeest ka sitara
Yeh chunchanaati kirnein
Yeh sarur sarur hawaeein
Yeh bagul hain roshani kei
Nai subh kei hain isharey
Mein jou mudatoon sei baitha
Dhoondhta tha sharara
Yeh padein tou phir sei chamka
Meri zeest ka sitara

Captains!

Haven't written in a while and those following my blog would know by now that whenever something disturbing on the world scene happens, I stop writing. Its an irony because usually writers provide solace through their writings while I, lose all power of expression when I am disturbed. And then what is there to write? Follow any newspaper from around the world and there is only one message that you get: Pakistan is rapidly slipping into an abyss! I was born in the 70s and have grown up in the 90s, I have vague recollection of the 80s even though I was not old enough to understand what life under Zia's martial law was like but I have seen relay race of power between Benazir and Nawaz Sharif in the 90s but never in our history have we been so unsafe. Where every person big or small, significant or otherwise, powerful or weak, rich or poor is exposed equally to this invisible enemy. Call it what you might, Taliban, extremist, jihadi, Al Qaeda, seperatist, a murderer by any name is ...

A classic case of putting your foot in your mouth!

Its been a couple of days since Imran Khan and Reham Khan announced their separation and decision to divorce. Nothing out of the ordinary there, as the decision to marry was also theirs, except maybe the timing of the announcement which coincided with the local bodies elections and may have had an impact but thats something which would be very difficult to gauge. What I do find quite extraordinary and almost bordering on incredulous is the amazing audacity of PTI supporters to present this break up as a result of some sort of principled stand by Mr. Khan. The idea being that Ms. Khan wanted to play a role in party politics and Mr. Khan could not bring himself to allow this so he had to sacrifice his marriage for his principled stand! How utterly outrageous is this! This is not principled stance but rather immaturity and shortsightedness. These two got into this relationship out of probably love and, I would assume, mutual admiration and respect. It was definitely not an 'arranged...
