Wo Jo Shayar Tha

Gulzar

Wo Jo Shayar Tha is another superb Nazm by Gulzar Sahab. I have a few of his books, and noted it down a couple months ago. I related to this one very closely and it’s a personal favorite of mine. Enjoy reading.

Wo Jo Shayar Tha

Romanized form:

Wo jo shayar tha, chup sa rehta tha
Behki behki si baatein karta tha
Ankho kaano pe rakh ke sunta tha
Goongi khamoshiyon ki awaazein

Jamaa karta tha chaand ki
Geeli geeli se noor ki boondein
Ok me bhar ke khadkhadata tha
Rookhe rookhe se raat ke patte

Waqt ke is ghanere jungle me
Kache pakke se lamhe chunta tha
Haan wohi wo ajeeb sa shayar
Raat ko uth ke kohniyon ke bal
Chaand ki thodi chooma karta tha

Chand se gir ke mar gaya hai wo
Log kehte hain Khudkushi kee hai.
