Shadi ka wada kia Perveen se

A cascade of women and complications — marriage promised to one, love given to another, and the list of names just keeps growing.

Shadi ka wada kia Perveen se,

Warna mohabbat to thi Nasreen se,

Anjane men sab kehdia Mehreen se,

Kia haal hua tha pocho Samreen se,

Ab umeed hai sirf Noreen se,

Lekin baat banegi Sabreen se,

Ya phir dekho Ambreen se,

Nahi to shayed Nosheen se,

Or hosakta hai k Zareen se,

Warna setting to hai hi Farheen se:p:d:-)

Yaad main aadhi ho gayi hon

Wife tells her travelling husband she's already lost half her weight missing him; his reply is to wait another two weeks.

Husband: 15 din aur ruk jao...

Hum apko good night kahne aate

A warm Roman Urdu good night confessing that only the inconvenient distance stops the sender from coming to say good night in person.

Deepak mein agar noor na hota,
Tanha dil yeh majbhoor na hota,

Hum apko good night kahne aate,
Agar apka ghar itna door na hota.

Good night & have sweet dream…!

Larkian badal jati hain, larkay nahin

4th day kisi new larki k sath tha

Jam kerwa hai magar itna nahi k pia na jaye,

Roman Urdu SMS on having just enough: enough wine to drink, enough pain to live through, enough money to keep the texts coming.

Jaam kerwa hai magar itna nahi k pia na jaye,
zindagi main dard hai magar itna nahi k jia na jaye,
sms kerny per paisay lagtay hain magar itney nahi kay kia na jaye;)

Jiska jesa zarf wesi uski takhleeq.

Roman Urdu SMS citing Hazrat Ali: the same raindrop becomes a pearl in an oyster and poison in a snake, shaped by the vessel.

Barish ka qatra seepi or sanp dono k muu mein girta hey
jab k sanp usay zeher bana deta hay,
or seepi usay moti,
Jiska jesa zarf wesi uski takhleeq.
HAZRAT ALI(R.A)

Khoobsurat si tumhari yaad.... Goodnight

A wistful Roman Urdu good night about memories that arrive quietly, without warning, wrapping themselves around you in the dark.

Kabhi ati hai,
Khamoshi say,
Chupkey Say,
Rat mein,
Barsat mein,
Veeraney main,
Anjaney main,
Kise waja say,
Kis liye,
Kis ki khater,
Kis k liey,
Ye keya hey,
Ek ehsasss,
Ek pyass,
Phir bhi acchi lagti hai,
Unjani si,
Begaani si,
Phachaani si,
Khoobsurat si,
Tumhari yaad.

“GOOD NIGHT”
