Koi khasara nahi hua uske baad

Pyaar dubara nahi hua uske baad

Umr guzar gayi aasman ko taakte

Toota hi nahi koi Sitara uske baad.

- Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

Me nazar nahi aati thik

Magar me thik toh hoon

Me jeena nahi jaanti

Magar me Zinda bhi toh hoon

Mujhme aati hai mausmi raunak

Magar me veeran bhi toh hoon

Shor o gul me lahassil lagti hu

Magar khamoshi me Ayan bhi toh hoon.

Jo gham khaye hue hai

Wo zyada guftugu nahi karte

Khwahishon ki aarzu nahi karte

Rehte hai khushmijaz wo

Acche waqt ki justuju nahi karte

-Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

The silhouette of night glares into my eyes,

Making me believe all that I am is a blatant lie.

I am not afraid of the darkness it brings;

I fear the light it conceals.

It strokes my gentle facade, altering my mood,

The flashes from my past then leave me perturbed.

Sleep, what is that, I wonder and ask?

It laughs and puts on a hideous mask.

The silhouette of night then recedes

As dawn arrives, counting my misdeeds.

[musingsofanam]

Scribbling muses on a ruined wall

I will not give up, nor will I fall

For my dreams still stand tall

To my rebellious spirit, I call.

[musingsofanam]

Humne raatien guzardi unke intezaar me

Wo aaye nahi phir bhi humare Hisar me

Majmua raunak ye sab laga hua hai

Wo aaye toh lage dil bhi humara bazaar me.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Mujhse puchte ho phele sawaal bhi

Jawab Milne ke baad

Hota hai phir malaal bhi

Kambakht jaan leva

Hota hai intezaar ka khayal bhi.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Mera raabta Jo toota hai unse

Abtak bahal nahi hua

Ranjh toh ye hai ke iss baar

Khamoshi par koi malaal nahi hua.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Dil ko chak na karde wo gham hi kya

Andheron me umeed dilaye

Phir jalaye aur khak na karde

Wo chirag hi kya

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Jisse mohabbat Hui wo Mila nahi

Jo Mila usse Mohabbat na hui

Toofan se bachkar jalne waali aarzu

Bil aakhir khaak hui.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

As the sky loses it's sunshine

The darkness sends Shivers down my spine

Is it longing or is it love

I can no longer determine

I almost reach the finish line

But I am grabbed by reality

Taking me in the darkness to whine

Why is that the dream that

Touches me so passionately

Can never be mine.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Kya ho ke wo mujhse chin jaaye

Aur kya ho ke wo mujhe mil jaaye

Dono hi suraton me khasara uthana hai

Ye zakham ka markaz hai kaise koi zakhm sil jaaye

Jab veeraniya muqadar ho toh kaise koi phool khil jaye.

-Anam Tanveer

[musingsofanam]

Koi dil kash khwab likhu

Ya guzra hua azaab likhu

Koi haseen saraab likhu  

Ya zindagi ko kharab likhu

Saki ne pilayi sharaab likhu 

Ya gham e sairaab likhu 

Barbadi ka koi sailaab likhu

Ya kamiyab koi inqelaab likhu

Kho Gaya koi juraab likhu 

Ya mil gaya kuch nayaab likhu 

Hu koi khuli kitaab likhu 

Ya badalta hua mehtaab likhu.

- Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

Na kar mere chehre se mere dard ka hisab

Haqeeqat ya fareb ye koi paigam nahi deta

Tu waqif hai bazaar ke dastoor se lekin

Ye karobar tujhe Zeb nahi deta.

-Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

Khwabo ke iss shehar me 

Mene logo ko jaagte dekha hai 

Sukoon se do pal baithne ke liye 

Mene logo ko bhaagte dekha hai 

- Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

Kuch log jazbo ki tijarat karte hai

Tajiro ki nafarmani se darte hai

Mohobbat ke khareed o farokt me ho munafa kaise

Jab Log tohfo ka bhi hisab rakhte hai

-Anam Tanveer A

[musingsofanam]

I am peace, love and faith to whom You can only offer a delusional scaith

I am what you can never be

I am the strength of a mountain and the depth of the sea

You are the world that silently watches a genocide and has no spine

I am Palestine and victory will eventually be mine.
