تم حقیقت نہیں ہو حسرت ہو
جو ملے خواب میں وہ دولت ہو
میں تمہارے ہی دم سے زندہ ہوں
مر ہی جاؤں جو تم سے فرصت ہو
تم ہو تو خوشبو کے خواب کی خوشبو
اور اتنی ہی بے مروت ہو
تم ہو پہلو میں پر قرار نہیں
یعنی ایسا ہے جیسے فرقت ہو
کس طرح چھوڑ دوں تمہیں جاناں
تم میری زندگی کی عادت ہو
کس لیے دیکھتی ہو آئینہ
تم تو خود سے بھی خوبصورت ہو
داستاں ختم ہونے والی ہے
تم میری آخری محبت ہو
جون ایلیا
Tum Haqiqat Nahi Ho Hasrat Ho
Jo Mile Khuwab Main Wo Daulat Ho
Mai Tumhare He Dum Se Zinda Hun
Mar He Jaaun Jo Tumse Fursat ho
Tum Ho To Khushboo Ke Khuwab Ki Khushboo
Aur Itni He Be.Muravat Ho
Tum Ho Pehlu Mai Per Qaraar Nahin
Yaani Aisa Hai Jaise Furqat Ho
Kis tarha Chhor Dun Tumhe Jaana
Tum Meri Zindagi Ki Aadat Ho
Kis Liye Dekhti Ho Aaina ?
Tum to Khud Se Bhe Khoobsurat Ho
Daastan Khatam Hone Wali Hai
Tum Meri Aakhri Mohabbat Ho
Jaun Elia
This shouldn’t be read in English. If you can’t read it in Urdu then you Didn’t earn the pleasure of enjoying the mesmerising depth of strong emotions 😀

@Farhan Shaheen – It is true that the beauty lies in the original language but, in todays time, can you really afford to learn Urdu, Hindi, Latin, Sanskrit, French, German and whatnot, if you have to just go through the poetry and prose in those languages. No, you don’t.
Transliteration is just fine.
@kovid
welcome to my humble blog 🙂 .. both the points are valid .. through transliteration you dont have to learn to read the ‘script’ of the language … but still you have to gain considerable “understanding” of the language itself to fully understand the prose of that language 🙂
@kovid well its only in one language either written in urdu
or english. Its still urdu so if you can read urdu in english then obviously you know urdu and should know urdu to be read in urdu. 
Awesome Ali !!!!
