Ye ishq ne dekha hai ye aql se pinhaan hai - Asghar Gondvi

~Ye ishq ne dekha hai, ye aql se pinhaan hai~


Ye ishq ne dekha hai, ye aql se pinhaan hai
Qatre mein samandar hai, zar�re mein bayaabaan hai

Hai ishq, ki mahshar mein yun mast-o-khiramaan hai
Dozakh baghareebaan hai, firdaus badaamaan hai

Hai ishq, ki shorish se ra�naai-o-zebaai
Jo khoon uchhalta hai wo rang-e-ghulistaan hai

Phir garm nawaazish hai zu-mehr darakhshaan ki
Phir qatra-e-shabanam mein hangaama-e-toofaan hai

Aye paikar-e-mehboobi main kis se tujhe dekhoon
Jis ne tujhe dekha hai wo deeda-e-hairaan hai

Sau baar tera daaman haathon mein mere aaya
Jab aankh khuli, dekha, apana hi girebaan hai

Ik shorish be-haasil, ik aatish be-pardaa
Aafat kada-e-dil mein ab kufr hai na imaan hai

Dhoka hai ye nazron ka, ye bazeecha hai lazzat ka
Jo guncha qafas mein tha, wo asal ghulistaan hai

Ik guncha-e-afsurda,ye dil ki haqeeqat thi
Ye mauj zani khoon ki, rangeeni-e-paikaan hai

Ye husn ki maujein hain ya josh-e-tamanna hai
Us shokh ke honthon par ek barq si larzaan hai

'Asghar' se miley lekin 'Asghar' ko naheen dekha
Ashaar mein sunte hain kuch-kuch wo numayaan hai

~ Janab �Asghar� Gondvi Sahab

Rumi and Shakespeare

By Wes Jamroz, excerpts from his new book, Shakespeare's Sequel to Rumi's Teaching "Jalaluddin Rumi and William Shakespeare are considered to be the greatest poets of Persian and English literature, respectively. However, there is much more in common between these two titans of poetry who lived some 350 years and 2,000 miles apart. In his Sonnets, Shakespeare acknowledged that his writings were inspired by Rumi�s poetry. He referred to Rumi as one of �Alien pens� whom he was asked to study. He described Rumi as �He of tall building, and of goodly pride�. Shakespeare admitted that Rumi�s verses were so powerful that they were stopping his thoughts before he was able to formulate them. Although Shakespeare was strongly influenced by Rumi�s poetry, it should be emphasized that his writings were not merely some adaptations of Rumi�s illustrations from an Eastern environment into the Western culture. Such understanding would greatly diminish Shakespeare�s role. Shakespeare wa...
