For Mom

Ami,
Aap kee shefket Nigah,
Aap kee muhabet sari
Jeb mujhey pareshan deikhey,
Tow mujhey pareshan karey

Ami,
Chahey Aap door hoon, chund dino key hee liyey
Meiree herr sans Aap kee zindagi sey ho,
Aap kee sehet sey ho, Aap key itminan sey ho,
Aap aik unmol dost kee terhan hein

Ami, theekh hoon mey
Aap fikr na karein,
Chowt tow legti rhetee hey mujhey
Yey wali zara ziyada zekhmee sahee

Ami, meirey liyey hameisha kee terhan, sirf
Dua kerteen rahein
Wohh hameisha kabool hoti hey
Aap ke Dua meirey liyey
Aur mujhey sahel nijaad miltee hey

Re: For Mom

Very Nice.. Though DONT appear to be a poem but still written in such a way k it made me shiver..

:bb:

Re: For Mom

thanks, redidentity.
how so v. nice of you.

Re: For Mom

Beautiful thoughts

Dushwari… I should not be doing any critical analysis for I am no authority but IN MY OPINION, if you change words ‘Ami’ to “ay maaN” and ‘aap’ to “teri”, it will only need a very little bit of tuning after that to become a full fledge poem :k:

Re: For Mom

:)

Anwaar Jee.. Mujhe pata nahi q Ami buhat acha lag raha hai iss tehreer main.. buhat apnaiat se feel horahi hai.. :)

Re: For Mom

AQ,
thanks. & what you suggested, it absolutely made sense.

Ayey Maan
teiree shefket Nigah,
teiree muhabet sari
Jeb mujhey pareshan deikhey,
Tow mujhey pareshan karey
Maan,
Chahey tu door hoon, chund dino key hee liyey
Meiree herr sans teri zindagi sey ho,
teri sehet sey ho, teirey itminan sey ho,
tu aik unmol dost kee terhan hey
Maan, theekh hoon mey
tu fikr na kar,
Chowt tow legti rhetee hey mujhey
Yey wali zara ziyada zekhmee sahee
Meri piyari Maan,
meirey liyey hameisha kee terhan, sirf
Dua kerte rahe
Wohh hameisha kabool hoti hey - teiree Dua meirey liyey,
Aur mujhey sahel nijaad miltee hey

Re: For Mom

definitely it does.. but the tone of this piece requires it differently... I will write "ammi" any time I am into Prose... but poetry.... !! ummm... poetry has its own selected diction... unless it's a free verse.... ammi will do but then, I see a lot of changes to be made in this poem to make it rythmic....

and Of course, it is only my opinion which can be wrong...

Re: For Mom

redidentity and AQ,

Ami or Maan naam hein iss azeem hasti key pukarney ko. dono piyarey naam hein. aur Maan ya Ami iss sey bhee ziyada aziz.
this poem contains appreciation for the value of a loving, caring and understanding Mom. there is no limit to how fulfilling and strengthening that bond is when parents and children & grown up children have a friend's relationship. May everyone be able to truly care for Moms & may all Moms truly love, care, & understand their children. amen

Re: For Mom

Nahi na.. i never said k aapka opinion is wrong.. its very rite..

em sorry if anything went wrong..

:)

Re: For Mom

Jee very well said Dushwari..

Jeeti rahain.. :)

Re: For Mom

agreed Dushwari... but here we're indulging in technical aspects ... hence, my reasoning :)

NO.. nothing went wrong... we both were stating our opinions and I stated mine and gave my reasoning... it's upto the readers to make a judgement and choose the best possible answer :D

Re: For Mom

ohho.. i was not into technicalities.. i was just talking ab the feeling that poem carried with it.. :)

Re: For Mom

See Ahmer.. that's the thing

for me, the beauty of thoughts is the key to start a poem.. since, that was not the issue, in order to improvise, the aspect of technicality was the only thing left so that it could make it more creative.. :)

Re: For Mom

dekhiyey AQ saheb, aap technicalities ko chowr dein, werna aap key java beans bikher jaein geye.

redidentity,
mujhey jeetee rheney kee dua na dein, old age sey der legta hey.

mods, dont worry, i will take care of these two hazraats who are agreeing to appreciate my poem for Mom, but are tres' adamant is suggesting what name I should call my Mom by, Ami or Maan.

redidentity and AQ,

you both argued in a healthy spirit and that is really nice. thanks personally for that.

ubb chup ker key suney dono: a mom is a mom is a mom - dear, near & always a shadow of protection and unwavering eternal care.

peace
Dushwari

Re: For Mom

lolx.. thnx Dushwari for taking care of both of us :slight_smile:

hum larr to nahi rahay thay :angel: sach.. aap chaho to Anwaar jee se pooch lo crossed fingers

Muddat Se Meri Maan So-ee Nahi Taabish
Mainay Ek Baar Kaha Tha Mujhe Darr Lagta Hai

_

take care.. keep smiling :slight_smile:

Re: For Mom

beautfiul sher Ahmer :)

... Dushwari jee.... I am not arguing.. neither do I disagree with what you said.... alternatively, you can use the word "waalidah" instead of ammi and maaN... see if it changes any meanings....? No.. it won't .. but it won't touch the heart it will, with the use of other words ....

sorry for derailing the thread.. I ma out :)

Re: For Mom

mukarer, redidentity.
AQ, you did not derail.
me going off, too.
i remember who would wish me rest and not be up late on gup shup,
tomorrow is another busy day at work.
if i survived, will see later. shaba-a-khaire all.
Dushwari

Re: For Mom

n stay safe.. keep smiling.. Allah hafiz
