Urdu Poetry In Urdu Script Biography
Source:- Google.com.pkAn endeavour of this magnitude would not have been made possible without help from a lot of people. This site would be incomplete without an acknowledgement of the support and encouragement that I have received from various sources since I started this work.
The Behind-The-Scenes Story
This web site is a labour of love for me. The original reason behind the creation of this website was my frustration when I tried to find a good site dedicated to ghazals and nazms. Most web sites had the same poets listed in them, usually with the same ghazals and nazms. I decided to share what little I knew with others. 30th September, 1997 was the date this web site made its hesitant debut on the World Wide Web.
It started off as Nitas's Urdu Poetry Page and was hosted on Geocities. It has come a long way since then. Somewhere along the way, the emphasis shifted from just sharing what I had (which was meagre when compared to the vast treasure trove of Urdu poetry) to creating a comprehensive archive of Urdu poetry in Romanized Urdu. With less and less people learning, understanding and enjoying Urdu and Urdu poetry, there is a very real danger of these gems being lost forever in the mists of time.
The ghazal and nazms at this site are in Romanized or transliterated Urdu. This means that the poems are in Urdu written in the English script. Here is the transliteration scheme I use for mapping the Urdu alphabet to the Roman letters.
So why did I chose Romanized Urdu over the Urdu or the Devnagri script? Urdu occupies a unique place in the plethora of Indian languages. It is understood by a large number of people who cannot read the Urdu script. To have the poems in Urdu script would have meant depriving all these people of the richness and beauty of Urdu poetry. Similarly, by presenting the poems in Devnagri (Hindi) script, a large number of people would not be able to enjoy this site and its contents. Romanized Urdu, or transliterated Urdu, is the only way to reach the largest possible audience.
I must be doing something right since this website has earned a few awards & accolades in its short life.
Acknowledgements
My love for Urdu poetry has been passed on to me from my father. To him goes the credit of imbibing me with a passion for this beautiful art form. His work does not leave him much time for sher-o-shaayari today but I know that he can still feel its pull in his blood. I would also like to thank my husband for his enthusiastic support and my father-in-law for encouraging me in pursuing my passion.
There are innumerable people who have helped me in my quest for knowledge. It would be impossible for me to list them all. I can only express my gratitude with a heartfelt 'Thank You' and prayers for their continued well-being and happiness. And last, but not the least, I have to thank all my fellow Urdu poetry lovers who regularly visit the site, showering me with unstinted praise and valuable feedback, suggestions and contributions.
Apney saarey dard bhula kar auron ke dukh sehta tha
Hum jub ghazlain kehtey thay wo aksar jail main rehta tha
Aakhir kaar chala hee gya wo rooth kar hum farzanoun se
Wo deewana jisko zamana Jalib Jalib kehta tha
Aapsa dono jahan mein nazar aaya hee nahin
Kyun kay Allah nay koi aur banaya hi nahin.
App nay jab say nawaza hai, Ya Rasoolallah
To phir mainay daman kisi chokhat pay philaya he nahin.
Aur jab kaha qabar mein, sarkar nay yeh mera hai
Phir nakiroon nay mujhay haath lagaya hee nahin.
Aur jo bhi Makkay say palat aaye Madinay na gaye
Youn samaj lo unhein aaqa nay bulaya hee nahin.
Aur aap ki naat hi Shehzad ka sarmaya hai
Iss nikamay nay to kuch aur kamaya hee nahin.
zinda rahen to kya hai jo mar jayen ham to kya
duniya main khamoshi se guzar jayen ham to kya
hasti hi apni kya hai zamane k samne
ek khwab hain jahan main bikhar jayen ham to kya
ab kaun muntazir hai hamare liye wahan
sham a gai hai laut k ghar jayen ham to kya
dil ki khalish to sath rahegi tamam umr
dariya-e-gam k par utar jayen ham to kya
