Wine has always been one of the most important topics of Urdu Poetry. In Urdu, wine poetry is commonly known as Sharab, Sharabi or Mai Shayari which includes Sher-o-Shayari on sharabi, sharab, nasha, maikashi and maikhana covering various styles, temperament, emotions and moods of Shayar and Shayari. Rekhta has created a list of 20 most popular shers on Sharaab. These have been selected based on the popularity as well as quality of each sher. We acknowledge that many good better shers may not have been included in our list. Please feel free to suggest better shers in the comment section below. Our editorial team will consider those and may add to the Top 20 list, if found appropriate. Hope you enjoy the selection; furthermore, we look forward to your participation in enhancing the list.

Sharab

If you wish to be intoxicated and be swayed, here are some select verses for you. You would realise that the taste of wine and its intoxicating quality have entered these lines also. So, they will let you enjoy yourself and would also surprise you for their sheer appeal to your senses.

Waiz

Sermoniser is an important institution character of classical Urdu poetry. We come across him along with other such institutions characters like a drunkard, lover, and beloved. He preaches for maintaining honesty and purity and speaks against drinking wine and indulging in sensual activities. Interestingly, he himself falls a prey to follies that he preaches against. This is why a sermoniser becomes an object of satire, as well as of laughter in poetry. Here are some interesting couplets that bring this character alive to you.
