    Interesting Fact

    Kaleem-ud-Din Ahmed famously quoted that, 'Urdu ghazal is a semi-savage genre'. But the critic who called Ghazal "semi-savage", disavowed his earlier comment in his last days. When someone asked him how he finally became fond of the genre of Ghazal, he replied, ‘One day I was listening to a Mushaira on the radio and a poet was reciting his Ghazal in a mellifluous tone, the couplets of that Ghazal unsettled me and shook me to the core’.

    kabhī jhūTe sahāre ġham meñ raas aayā nahīñ karte

    ye bādal uḌ ke aate haiñ magar saayā nahīñ karte

    yahī kāñTe to kuchh ḳhuddār haiñ sehn-e-gulistāñ meñ

    ki shabnam ke liye dāman to phailāyā nahīñ karte

    vo le leñ gosha-e-dāman meñ apne falak chun le

    mirī āñkhoñ meñ aañsū baar baar aayā nahīñ karte

    salīqa jin ko hotā hai ġham-e-daurāñ meñ jiine

    vo yuuñ shīshe ko har patthar se Takrāyā nahīñ karte

    jo qīmat jānte haiñ gard-e-rāh-e-zindagānī

    vo Thukrā.ī huī duniyā ko Thukrāyā nahīñ karte

    qadam mai-ḳhāna meñ rakhnā bhī kār-e-puḳhta-kārāñ hai

    jo paimāna uThāte haiñ vo tharrāyā nahīñ karte

    'nushūr' ahl-e-zamāna baat pūchho to larazte haiñ

    vo shā'ir haiñ jo haq kahne se katrāyā nahīñ karte

    kabhi jhuTe sahaare gham mein ras aaya nahin karte

    ye baadal uD ke aate hain magar saya nahin karte

    yahi kanTe to kuchh KHuddar hain sehn-e-gulistan mein

    ki shabnam ke liye daman to phailaya nahin karte

    wo le len gosha-e-daman mein apne ya falak chun le

    meri aankhon mein aansu bar bar aaya nahin karte

    saliqa jin ko hota hai gham-e-dauran mein jine ka

    wo yun shishe ko har patthar se Takraya nahin karte

    jo qimat jaante hain gard-e-rah-e-zindagani ki

    wo Thukrai hui duniya ko Thukraya nahin karte

    qadam mai-KHana mein rakhna bhi kar-e-puKHta-karan hai

    jo paimana uThate hain wo tharraya nahin karte

    'nushur' ahl-e-zamana baat puchho to larazte hain

    wo sha'ir hain jo haq kahne se katraya nahin karte
