Urdu sad verse with Farsi influence: the speaker carries wounds silently, fears sympathy, yet keeps the hurt hidden from display.

Girti hoi dewar ka humderd hoon Lakin
charty hoy sourg ki prus-thish nahi karta

humdard e ehbab se drta hoo lakin
zakhm too rakhta hoo lakin nooma'ish nahi karta

khele holi hum tere sang

Lively Hindi Holi SMS about gujiya, bhaang, dholak, and dancing together — a full day of festival packed into four lines.

Khaa key gujiya, pee key bhaang,
laaga ke thoda thoda sa rang,
baja ke dholak aur mridang,
khele holi hum tere sang.
Holi Mubarak!

Judai ki kasak liye

Each night brings fresh tears and each day drags by empty — the ache of absence has no schedule, it just keeps arriving.

Judai ki kasak liye
teri yaad se jura aansoo
har shab meri aankh se tapka hay
guzry kal ki terha aaj ka din bhi
tum bin udaas guzarta hay ... !!!

Meri taqdeer

A brief, resigned couplet about the cruelest trap — a fate written by your own hand that you're completely powerless to change.

Mere hi hathon pey likhi hai taqdeer meri,
aur meri hi taqdeer par mera bus nahi chalta

Che Nari Waghe Marghan Zama Pa Qabar

Pashto graveyard poem asking for no weeping women, no grief-songs from nightingales, and no satisfaction on the faces of enemies at the grave.

Che Nari Waghe Marghan Zama Pa Qabar
Bia De Na Jari Janan Zama Pa Qabar
Bulbulan Che Pre Da Gham Sandari Wai
Sa Hajat Day Da Khafgan Zama Pa Qabar
Pa Jwandun Ye Da Nafrata Zarge dak wo,
Us Walar De Pareshan Zama Pa Qabar
Che Ye Kuz Kram Da Lahad Thoro Thiaro Tha
Pa Khanda sho Raqeeban Zama Pa Qabar
Bia raghele da Imdada Jarave me,
Che Shendi Surki Gulan Zma Pa Qabar.

Koi zabt de na jalal de

Roman Urdu dua asking for halal sustenance, constant remembrance of Allah, fear of none but Him, and protection from every misfortune.

Koi zabt de na jalal de,
Mujhe sirf itna kamal de,

Mai har ek ki sada banun,
K zamana meri misaal de,

Teri rehmaton ka nuzool ho,
Meri mehnaton ka sila milay,

Mujhe maal o zar ki hawas na ho,
Mujhe bas tu rizq e halal de,

Mere zehen mai Teri fikr ho,
Meri saans mai Tera zikr ho,

Tera khauf meri nijaat ho,
Sabhi khauf dilse nikal de,

Teri bargaah mai Aay Khuda meri roz o shab hai yahi Dua,
Tu Raheem hai Tu Kareem hai,
Tu sabhi balaa'on ko taal de.

(AAMEEN)

Ho sake to laut aa kisi bahane se

A longing SMS urging someone to come back because everyone misses them — the real reason turns out to be the garbage piling up since they left.

Bohut udas he her shakhs tere jane se,
Ho sake to laut aa kisi bahane se,

Tu lakh khafa sahi magar ik bar to dekh,
Mohalay me Kitna kachra jama hai tere na any se.
