[his-heart-hymns]

How elegantly urdu poet Muztar khairabadi has captured the emotion of being unwanted in this couplet:

Na kisi ki aankh ka noor hu na kisi ke dil ka qaraar hu kisi kaam me jo na aa sake mai vo ek musht-e-ghubaar hu.

Not the light of any one's eyes,not the solace for anyone's heart.Of no use to anyone I am that one fistful of dust.

تو مجھے کس کے بنانے کو مٹا بیٹھا ہے

میں کوئی غم تو نہیں تھا جسے کھا بیٹھا ہے

tu mujhe kis ke banane ko miTa baiTha hai

main koi gham to nahin tha jise kha baiTha hai

بات کچھ خاک نہیں تھی جو اڑائی تو نے

تیر کچھ عیب نہیں تھا جو لگا بیٹھا ہے

baat kuchh khaak nahin thi jo uDaa.i tu ne

tiir kuchh aib nahin tha jo laga baiTha hai

میل کچھ کھیل نہیں تھا جو بگاڑا تو نے

ربط کچھ رسم نہیں تھا جو گھٹا بیٹھا ہے

mel kuchh khel nahin tha jo bigaDa tu ne

rabt kuchh rasm nahin tha jo ghaTa baiTha hai

آنکھ کچھ بات نہیں تھی جو جھکائی تو نے

رخ کوئی راز نہیں تھا جو چھپا بیٹھا ہے

aankh kuchh baat nahin thi jo jhuka.i tu ne

rukh koi raaz nahin tha jo chhupa baiTha hai

نام ارمان نہیں تھا جو نکالا تو نے

عشق افواہ نہیں تھا جو اڑا بیٹھا ہے

naam arman nahin tha jo nikala tu ne

ishq afvah nahin tha jo uDa baiTha hai

لاگ کچھ آگ نہیں تھی جو لگا دی تو نے

دل کوئی گھر تو نہیں تھا جو جلا بیٹھا ہے

laag kuchh aag nahin thi jo laga di tu ne

dil koi ghar to nahin tha jo jala baiTha hai

رسم کاوش تو نہیں تھی جو مٹا دی تو نے

ہاتھ پردہ تو نہیں تھا جو اٹھا بیٹھا ہے

rasm kavish to nahin thi jo miTa di tu ne

haath parda to nahin tha jo uTha baiTha hai
