I was reading some of Ghalib’s poetry and came across this:
**YEH ITTEHAD AJJUB HAY KAY EK DUSHMAN-e-DEEN ALI SAY AA kAY lARAY - AAUR KHATA KAHEIN ISKO
YAZEED KO TOU NA THAA IJJTEHAAD KA PAAYA - BURRA NA MANNEYEH GURR HUM BURRA KAHEIN ISKO**
Isn’t it a classy sher. Few lines basically summarise it all. Good stuff
Roman Urdu is sometimes a little difficult. Can you explain this in simple English too. It will be helpful for many.
Ghalib was Shia. Everybody knows it. So what is surprising and this is expected stuff.
BTW I am a great fan of Ghalib as a poet and I think he is the best urdu poet of all times. But this is definitely not one of his classic and famous compositions.

Salaam PB,
Nice shair. I got one from ALLAMA Iqbal.
Hurr Dumm wird-e-Zabban hay Ali ka naam Iqbal
Kay piyaas rooh ki bujhtee hay is nageenay say
Isn’t it a great sher from shair-e-Mushriq.

Katal e Hussain asal may margay Yazid hain,
Islam zinda hota hain har Karbala kay baad.
The death of Hussain (as) is in fact Yazid's destruction.
Islam is revitalized after every Karbala.
Ya Hussain.
What better then this one said by Hadrath Gebrial (AS).

shamsheer bakaf dekh kay Haider (a.s) kay pisar ko
Jibreel (a.s) laraztay hein samaitay huay par ko

here is another great one
ISLAM K DAMAN MEIN BAS DO HI TO CHEEZEIN HEIN
IK ZARB-E-YADULAI, IK SAJDA-E-SHABBIRRY!
Explanation:
There are two memorable things in islam, one is the great Ali’s sword “Zarb’s” and on is the sacrificial Sajda of Imam Hussain for the sake of Islam!
I think this one is also by Iqbal!
Sajid aaur mm10 kay sher masha allah bohat achay hein. Maula salamat rakhaein aap sub ko.
