biisat

... sayyad sahib picked up the wazir and  put it before the badshah  and declared it was checkmate
Mushtaq sahib  inspected the chessbiard pieces  thoroughly  , the  escape route was completely blocked  , pondering thoughtfully on every possible move he finally accepted defeat, it was their second game, the first game was won by mushtaq, second was  sayyad s 
Now the sunlight was crossing  the  space around them, the tin shed was getting  heated up and it became  difficult to breathe properly in that heat, this shed was built two years ago for  shazya s potted plants , in the middle sayyad sahib had put a wooden cot and a quick makeshift sitting arrangement for him was created, though shazya did nit like the idea of him spending all his free time amidst her potted garden under the  tin shed, she took revenge and stole his mobile sim , sayyad sahib called his servant who was putting laundry into the machine  in the yard, he could not hear his roar, helpless as he was sayyad sahib was forced to walk out from the shed to the stairs, this time  he added choicest of dirtuest abuses as starters and calked the servant again

...he nervously looked around  but there was not a soul around , as far as he could see the road was vacant , he turned to see another clean patch of  isolated road , ruby escalated the speed of the four wheel
Who can it be he demanded   whispering 
The same oldie who else or someone like him definitely  ruby chewed on her words, he was startled  just for a moment  but the next moment he rejected the idea completely , logically not possible, why would he  start firing on us when we were going back
No ruby its not possible  he spoke confidently

He turned to look back  he could not understand the reason and purpose of this firing

..hello sabiha  spoke  ambar
When did you come back from the village asked sabiha
Yes dear  i am back just a couple of days ago  , where have you disappeared  complained sabiha
Nowhere , just home   , same daily domestic routine to follow  , you tell me all about your village tour experience, both got to share their thoughts and even got ready to go out shopping together
Both sabiha and ambar were close friends and cousins , as luck would have it both were married into the same family  and they remained good friends even after their marriages
Next day when saba reached  ambar s place to go out shopping the door was opened by a ten year old , saba was taken aback by sheer surprise, the boy  had the look of a villager

...he was woken up by the morning alarm, he quickly took a shower,  briskly shaved  swiftly dressed up, he felt whatever he was thinking jaqulin had the same thoughts on her mind
Putting on his ciat he looked into her eyes and asked  do people of this house also go to work
Certainly eddie , they are all humans after all like us who need to go to work
For example what kind of work he asked showing deep interest
Perhaps they painted ceremaic pottery she explained
They peeped inside mr richards room 
No sound was heard from the cotton quilt, morning sun shone bright from the window outside, a vehicle passed on the road 
Eddie reached out to remive the cover from the cage, the toy house if mr ricgard stood  there in complete silence, one window currain was raised up , the other curtains were down , he drew himself cliser to the cage  to have a better look insude the cage through the metal frame, curtains flapoed  inside the rooms  with the blowing winds, suddenly a dangerous eye looked back at him from within

Mr richard understood  tgere was audience watching the cage with interest

.. saira was not his true love but his  chosen target but she really believed he was passionately in love with her, she  thought  he would kill himself if he could not get her , this was  an idea put into her head by him , and she could do anything  he asked her to  because she wrongly  believed he was sincere , she did not know he  was  burning in the fire of revenge and hate, the fire of hate and revenge  in which his father was killed followed by losing  his mother, this revenge was possible only because saira s grandmother was  generous to him
The revenge started from that moment when  saira s mother asked his father she wanted to go shopping , his father was her driver, that kind of driver who was completely loyal to the seth sab and his wife

sun dard piya

...for some people life is merely a journey, so they keep on  going around from here to there   , such people never  stay  anywhere long enough, they are not destined to  have a  peaceful life  and a home  
Seerat afaq also had such  invisible. wheels   fitted in her feet, she  owned massive property and  possessed  all that anyone can wish for but she was still  the poorest of all, she was the only child of her parents , her mother died when she was just three, her father brought another wife home, she saw gul ma as a new mother not good for her  nor bad either ,  she helped the child , bathed her, cleaned her, dressed her, cooked for her, helped  her  in growing up and raised her  as her responsibity atrended her school meetings as her mother, when watched she feeded her  her meals  with her own hands, that was the only connection between them without any warm feelings, when she was  in the eighth class her father suddenly collapsed moaning painfully

Amma these are the decisions of nature, dont blame me and tara for it, he also smiled with sorrow
No dear, i believe it that it is a curse  befallen on us from chanda , its a punshment  we go through becauseshe was rejected
Amma  what has chanda to do with our fate, never  doubt things unneccessarily, he stole his eyes though from her as he spoke it but she was unstoppable 
Dear in our community  when promised engagements are broken they definitely bring misfortune

...one thing common between the sun and wife is that you can not lift your eyes to stare at them
.
Marriage is simply a  bonding  imposed between two decent  citizens  to uselessly fight each other for life for survival
.
When boy is born prayers for his long life are performed
On the birth of a girl  it is exoected and prayed she has a long articulate wagging tongue
.
Woman is that weird creature who can go out for a long walk to reduce her weight but wont like to work at home on regular excercise
.
.to tame your wife  there is one simple rule , keep your mouth shut and wallet open
.
Girls colleges have become  museums of plastered made up  walking bodies
.
.girls carry  not money but make up kit in their purses

I am bob  morison  from.  County  fire and rescue  to check on you  if you are following the safety rules
Hmm
Irritably bob repeated his  statement  hoping the camera clearly caught his irritated expression , he did not want to show his fire and rescue  shield  lest he was taken for a police man, it certainly would be a bad idea  specially when you stand at the gates of a drug peddler

Are we there asked jack like a child
 Just about there  answered robu who was driving  and was less drunk than others, they had crossed three  bars on the way out of four
We will be there shortly josh spoke , a deer was seen crossing the road in the headlights , the road  lead towards the jungle, now they crossed a small white cottage , michael lay unconscious on the back on the floor , i should take one more drink,  his tongue stumbled words falling on each other , had he used his brains he would still be  sane and conscious

gazal wasim bareily

..styles of pleasantries will be flung across
Distorted meanings will be  deliberately extracted
.
Let the storms take over, nothing can be carried away
Real fear is when courage  and spirit is broken down
.
The ground I stand on is my true identity
Just that you are blind  to recognize  it completely
.
We are to live on in history of mentalscapes
Not printed material on periodicals to be torn away
.
Decisions lay entirely on ettiquettes of the gathered
Who will be thrown out  of sight of the gathering

.
You are merely a character limited in fiction
Remember that before you are discarded forgotten

gazal ...wasim bareily



gazal ...wasim bareily
..the house i live in  is not my home
As  much as my favourite haunt
.
Moments made between hearts is the glue
To escape formalities unwanted
.
How could someone  accept me
As i never accepted anyone
.
To keep alive relationship
Shedding a few tears  is enough
.
Roads follow  mapping the feet walking
.spent is the era of fearlessness alone
.
Swallowed i have oceans of sorrows
Never do i spill a drop of tear
.
How much i repent saying that
If possible forget all that what happened
.
Dont let ego ever stop you
Just come back when someone calls you

wajdan

..she .on the final moments  of separation  from shehzad , even after shehzad got married to her younger sister sanya , she constantly kept on toying with the idea  that there never existed any relationship of love between them , whatever it was  he was merely a friend , her own contact  and thats all, she was doing her best to console her hurt feelings , even if something  existed  between them it was rotted and bitter , she wanted to forget it , her full focus was only on her life , hard as it was she had to move on in life, but some time later she started feeling she was a fool ,  she had been a real fool to fall in love with her own boss
Three months earlier she had entered that office  of waqar shah as his secretary , excited like a school girl

ye fashion

....fashion is a term that relates to self love and appearance it is meaningful    in a different way, to present oneself in a personalised custom made appearance totally different from others, human nature is weird , it gets easily tired and bired by any monotonous  style  quickly ,,  there is a natural pattern  yet  there is uniqueness   in individuality, everyone  secretly desires to  dominate  others by their own exceptional  presence,  bollywood has spread  like corona   infecting  the streets and commoners  , nobody stays untouched by fashion  which quickly  captivates minds of the majority and as quickly  gets down like fever to catch something new , styles of walking talking and dressing up tickle imaginations  of the ordinary who dream of becoming extraordinary  by copying the new styles  which dont last a week
Girls are seen in strange   hairstykes  whether they look goid ir not but they do attract attention , children from wealthy families  look rich in expenssive attires branded  shoes and get ups 
Communication in english is trendy  and always in fashion for the elite  considered classy  in high end lifestyles, though urdu is one of the most beautiful languages everything sounds romance in urdu
Latest fashion is boys look girlish delicate
Women appear masculine muscular

...  douglas had retired five years ago as  police officer , yet he had not forgotten the narrator whom he believed to be  accused  in  a  reported  case of   a girl gone missing seventeen years ago  when he was  still working in los angeles homicide department , he suspected the narrator had a hand in her disappearance , ,daughter of doughlous was close friend of the missing girlfriend of the narrator,  most probably the seed of doubt was sowed in the father s mind by his own daughter but there was no evidence against the narrator
 It was logical when he was on the job but he became agressively active to find oroof of his involvement in the girl s disappearance after his retirement because  he was no longer  lawfully tied back  now he works for a private detective with licence   as a client to find out what really happened to nikol vance, the missing girl friend of the narrator, , shaun doughlas was  passionately  using his power and money and expertise   to catch the narrator

pearls of wisdom

....if there is a possibility if forgiveness , avoid revenge and force

Your real wealth are those friends who sincerely  pray for your happiness  even in your absence
.
Good hearted soul needs not search for peace, they are themselves refreshing  like pure sunrises

mashal abar karam hy tu

...sayad   very happily emerged from  danyal s house , the scene outside the fate was enough to  make him nervous , his pet dog tiger had sneaked out   the gyard was  unable to see him , tiger stood before a kid  growling at him  visciously, the kid was frightened to death , the innocent kid  was screaming at top. Of  his loudest voice
Sayad himself was scared of digs  but now seeing the child in trouble he decided to take action regardless of  any  unimaginable result , he quickly moved forward and oicked up the child , 
Thankfully the dog s memory was good and he recognized his master s friend  sayad quickly, tiger sat down  on his feet wagging his tail , by then the guard also joined them 
Khan baba where have you been , dont you realize how ferocious this dog is, he can attack anyone  yet you failed to stop him from getting out of the house gates

His question startled her completely
No not really nervous  just feeling out of place  she spoke frankly
Its fine to be nervous but dont cross the line over to be scared  or you will lose your own self  explained salman 
No, i wont appear scared not even for a moment , farha looked quite confident , her eyes had cold sparks of passionate fury
Okay all set , lets start then  salman instructed  and turned towards his mobile  his face a mask of solemnity
Farha nidded in agreement  and tightly covered herself in the chadder  and also covered her face , nothing on her face was vusible except her eyes , her whole body covered in the chadder
Asslam allekum my viewers , i am salman ali  and you are watching such ki awaz

...his mind wss slowly and steadily moving from the depths of darkness towards  the lights 
Lights were incredible  like fliecs of glow worms  simply shimmering   imoressing their presence  pulling him towards consciousness , his eyelids heavy with unimaginable weight  unable to open  besides weight a strange sensation of inhuman rustling was  forming  inside his mentalscape, amidst all this chaos he tried to make a noise and disturbance to attract attention but all he felt around him was stark silence, the shimmering lights of glow worms started to turn into flashing lights if  an aircraft  descending  for arrival, he gsthered himself to regain coordination of his limbs and bidy but failed  to move , he discovered he was tightly bound to stretcher  , the pain was shooting up in waves from his legs 
Where am i he asked  himself barely audible
Where ever you are , you are alive a ripple of satisfaction ran down his body

... that very evening hamid sat with gloria  in a family cabin unwillingly listening to a one sided lecture , uninterested because of gloria herself,  exceptionally beautiful to look at but during conversations she would scowl and purse her lips  as if ready to sneeze, this woman had  killed his interest in women   , in the matter of women his feelings equalled lord byron s strange  feelings of cynical disillusionment
He was doing his best to tolerate her patiently, strict instructions from faridi were clear he was to keep an eye on gloria
What are you thinking she asked him
Did you see any evening newspaper 
I only follow morning newspapers
Last night colnol faridi s car was found on sharnaroad , on the back of. The   front seat a dagger  was stuck  and some blood stains around
Oh, it implies an attack on him but where is he
Faridi,  sighed hamid long and deep i hope to find his dead body somewhere in a  river or drain by late evening

.....asfand  cut off the xall and ramin s heart  filled with venom of envy, she swiftly punched the numbers of mahi , pleasantries were exchanged and she quickly began  pouring out her  hatred..what do you think , that you will succeed in  in this , never  can you win, asif is mine just mine , he belongs to no one else, her vouce was high pitched shrieky, mahi patiently heard her bitterness to the end before coolly replying  of course he is yours, who is trying to own him , but her screaming shrieking yelling did not  stop, 
But what was the point of it all
Of what
Of having a child her annoyance was  genuine
But.. mahi was about to tell her the truth when ramin cut her words in the middle  and snatched the conversation rolling on her side of the story...no ifs and buts , just listen very carefully to me she spoke on top of her highest pitch on the scale, i have just now spoken to asif he is flabberghasted  , the child could destroy our relationship completely, 
Mahi  removed the phone from her ears to look clisely at ramin doubting her mental condition, why was asif  lying, but she first had to speak with him befire clarifying the point to her

...you are so fabulous and beautiful, people love you , everyone wants you, the thorn mournfully added everyone hates me and avoids me
The blossom spoke 
Tge hateful  desires of odious world do not matter at all, i love you and live with you all my life  unless and untill someone plucks me
.
Sukrat was asked what is more cruel than death
Socrates answered life is more merciless , one has to go through pain and sufferings , death is a release
.
A wealthy man was afollower if socrates,  arrogantly claimed god was great and always fulfilled all his desires  thankfully
Socrates replied he was thankful  to god multiple times because  he had no desires  at all

...i never heard this story   in this way  ever before, filip s voice was louder than normal speaking voices
A bar member of the club sitting on a stool turned to look at the source of that loud voice , it was a fruendly argument of friends so he did not give it much importance  and cheerfully engrossed  himself in conversation with a sportsman  beside him 
As usual the weekend morning  drew more crowds of club members and golf players  the spaces quickly filled up leaving no space to squeeze in  more crowds
Club members had been present in the dining hall for quite some time , second rounds of drinks were circulating , they sat by the glass window watching at the  grounds outside clearly , some players were still there playing golf , both filips and mike had finished their golf  sessions early  that weekend morning and now sat there enjoying their drinks in the golf club bar  gossipping

He was a sharp shooter, sniper  , professional killer  paid to eliminate anyone at a certain  ammount, he was perched on a  under construction site for past half hour aiming his sniper scope that had basically two functions to perform first to frame the target and second to  pin point the target, , today his simple task was to shoot a high profile politician down

Thankfully the lady doctor was still present at night at ten , who immediately   took action and emergency treatment started on them with  putting them on drip, amma ji was given medicines with follow ups and several more prescriptions, when nimmo and shammo  s condition slightly improved  amma ji   gave them a generous verbal thrashing

On the next hearing the lawyer  won the case , the senior lawyer  reminded him  the cigar box would have  gone against them
The lawyer laughed heartily, he actually had sent the cigar box to the judge but from the   rival lawyer

....just shutting your eyes the danger wont vanish
You will have to see the sights impossible to see
.
Goblet of love  is full of patience
Empty promises  dont measure it up
.
Burn either in hell or burn the gatherings
No flame is questioned  where to burn 
.
Doors of prayers  have shut tight before you
No live  complaints are to be risen loud again
.
We are one of the wealthy in town
Rules are made for others to follow
.
Buy and pocket pieces of skies as much you want
Yet the loan of   soil is never repayable
.
Enemies are  intensely  stressed  by wasim
Never ending debate when you are dead will go on

Chaudhary sahib if you are aware of the incident of madam being poisoned  then you should not be asking this  the investigator spoke sharply
Who are you he asked
Ask this question from gul zeb 
You are a weird person he glared 
Ruby  spoke challenging his glares everyone was flared up only he was in the dark
Perhaps he was ready to  ask more rounds of questions but  at that very moment noor came in , first rahel  got down  to usher rawa aside towards the haveli so the poor kid wont have to see the dead bodies lying there, gul zeb walked up to that spot , she then turned to the investigator  explaining she had called the police all that they could do now was just wait

....anwar wedded a city girl and brought her home , what followed was a storm and commotion
She was not arrogant nor did she have any airs, not that  she prided in her beauty and intelligence because she was just ordinary, she did not treat her village in laws like dust nor did she order them around because she was a city creature, she did not spend the entire day lazing about in her bed not that she avoided helping  in the household chores but she was different , she was born and  brought up  in tge city and that made her completely unscceptable, she was invisible to the family

gazal ,,hashmat bhardwaj

... the light has come  for certain
Torch of knowledge is lit for certain
Someone is approaching heremy heart is resonating 
Do me a favor today
Show kindness to me 
Hurting others is a common trend
Arguments  specially  norm practice
One who succeeds  in this world
Surrounded he is with envy
Someone was there in the middle
Conversing was all remotely done
One ete  feels overwhelmed  
The other is flooded with emotions
Almighty is remembered since
Youth has wilted  and  life on threshold
My  beloved met me as if
We were long lost  life  enemies

For the past four days waiting for the sun to appear sabiha did not   plug in her washinb machine  but today seeing there was no change in the outside grey sky she   rebeled and defied the rude weather and decided to use her washing machine, doing the regular household laundry felt a  harsh punishment in this bad weather, she looked at the mountain of dirty laundry  as if it was  a prifessional  task

Come down for breakfast hearing it he did reach  that side
Merely a casual glance on jabr who stood there meek with lowered head was enough to melt away all his hardness in hus heart for him

Its getting dark where are you going  he had stopped his vehicle and rolled down the window glass before asking them 
This was masi shadan  but he  was alarmed to see neelam wrapped up in maroon  sheet  with her , her prsence there was unexpected completely , he had stopped his jeep long before seeing her , it was his habit to stop his jeep midway to give lift to the lost and lonely  , now it was more so obligatory because they were two females and it was secluded and dark  and just open fields around  and one of the women was  his own , it was unthought of 
Its like thus neeli was here to see sadya , it was late so i was  walking her back home  chaperoning  spoke masi shadan , their cottage was beyond the  villafe fields

This news had sent waves of rejoicing in the whole household , but abba had absolutely different ways of working , he was old timer and  totally loyal to malik sahib, he had  given all his life to his family, his life was commitment  to loyalty

They are certainly evil but how to say that
They who sink boats near the harbour 
Destroyer that he is how to say that
Its another point to not say bad is bad
Bad is bad , bad is good how to say that
They are merged into my breaths , heart , glances
Separate from me they are how to say that
He who tells you they are in hiding in the world
If not through my gazals how to say that
Poverty is fanned by winds of misfortunes
Nawaz  unbelievers are not lights how to say that

...no communication no handshakes
No interaction with  the not  so likeminded
Yes love has blessed us so
Not a word of complaint can be found
Mirror says so different you are from the world
Why more like us sre not foiund
Withered completely are blossoms like children
Undernourished  uncared for
Seeki courteous  gatherings because
Life  s enjoyments are  not for all
Lesson for shirkers  is blunt
False tokens of profit  also escape
What can be mentioned of the homeless
Life is real    not easy for all

I am nit a mirning person not at all she confessed  laughing to her fruends,  i dont mind staying up late nights though but once i i am comfirtably tucjed in bed  waking up is not just difficult but an impissible task
The most hillarious part is that she got a early morning shift , her job was in a reputed modeling company  where all comercial shoots were done in the early hours of morning, today again she was late, the shoot began at eight and she opened her eyes at nine

Sir sultan was eagerly waiting for him , on seeing him he asked if he had seen the star of tiday

Scratching his gead imran aat down ,  no i did not he spoke up, perhaps you too are asking abiut the same
What exactly do you mean by you too, who else  is interested 
I s i is also following her
It would be  surprising if it wasnt interested 
What took you so long to enquire, it is nine at night, others were actively  following since early morning

...this time the stone hit  him so hard resonance  was heard far and wude as if a rock was thriwn on granite not on a  man , the public around started accusing the chikdren who were pelting stines in him but he stayed unaffected completely , he trudged along slightly swaying , undisturbed , unbothered not pausing to look back, not stopping to turn around to glare 
Several children were bashed up by the oassers by  for flinging stones on him , the wicked boys ran away but the granite nan kept on walking unflinching,   his appearance apparently  presented a weird crazy  person , his sharp intelligence was clearly visible in his eyes through his unkempt dishevelled shoddy   unshaven  face

...regarding this particular allaince mehsan and shahtab also had discussed the matter 
It is not suitabke because mahi is still a girl and that man is quite mature  spoke  she  adding the family was not like theirs , their house had a  mysterious air sort of hidden  secrecy  , the women of their house looked  sgarp and aggressive  mehsan was done 
But older mature men keep their women happy  argued ehsan  and the agressiveness of their women  i did not notice but it completely depends on our daughter to get along with them , mahi s father sighed coolly
Not neccessarily  that things would go as you think because many a times mature men become crazy and behave weird  when their wives are extraordinary beauties and very young, they become illogical and psychological

...come spring  to  make  alive life again
A love story  caressed my lios too
Then came a turning point
Troubles descended straight  over love story
Storms of distrust blew around
Dirt and dust settled on the bright 

gazal

...they will leave  me one time 
It might not be easy to wait for their return
.no need fir any mentor 
.travellers ask directions on the way
They know unworrying  heart
If they leave nothing is gone
Forgetting them is my first priority
If they  ever fill my mind
.tales of love are  interesting indeed
When told  listening is possible
They dont stop anyone  moving
But who cares to visit anyway
Staying away from rotting
Life is enough once lived well enough

Oh yes, the boy is very nice , only son , saying that much she  stuffed her mouth with the  saltos  as if  pouring water into a wide bucket with a pipe before noisily slurping  and swallowing a long sip of her hot sweet  tea to wash it down 
Yes yes impatiently the lady of the house farhana pushed her to   speak more of the real matter , because  this was basic and already known  that the boy was good, farhana  was getting  excited and impatient
Six sisters  and already married , the youngest in fifth standard in school  others all unmarried  this time the matchmaker stuffed two biscuits at once in her wide mouth followed quickly with a long slurp of tea
Besides they own a house  masgalla by the grace of god he has a job
What is this , is this what you call a marriage proposal

It was best he left their company , he was sure hamza would choose hani above hashr so  it was absolutely pointless to stay on 

Every eye saw hamza s deep interest in hani  but hani was extremely naive and uncaring  of him

 ..they could not laugh long after making others cry

But my smiles lasted after crying

When i wanted to forget them altogether

They  constantly  were remembered to be forgotten

I laughed for no apparent reason suddenly 

For which i was punished for by them

For the sake of starving children

Again mother cooked water for long

Humming went past a faqir

Neither sunshine nor shade remains forever

Last night a glow worm alone

  gleamed  like me till the end

Trying to   hold on to her   baby pink net veil  over her slippery dress with  saucy attitude  could she be the same girl  who long time ago was so naive  and carefree , her dusky complexion  turned golden with light touch up , shyness  colouring her cheeks  highlighting them , her long lehnga   presented her like a fresh blossom

A tall handsome young man sat beside her his expression  of sheer intelligence in eyes gleamed , his face  a pleasant  fondness for his wife so stark
