February 8, 2016Hum laboN se keh naa paaye,
unse haal-e-dil kabhi,
Aur wo samjhe nahiN,
ye khamoshi kya cheez hai
The ironic thing about Hindi film industry's treatment of its writers and song writers is that they are forgotten or never paid their due but only a passing note on their death. But at the same time, the cacophonous celebration of the same celebrities( so called stars etc etc ) never gets old.
Nida Fazli, whose name I had read once in a while on various songs that I have loved over the years, passed away this morning.
I was just going through the list of songs the man has penned and to realize that many a numbers that made me come closer to poetry before I ever read poetry had his palette of words working on them.
Be it songs that in mellifluous voices ask for lovers to lose themselves and their words in silences as blank as the night...
hontho par hontho se likhe, bin shabdo ke geet
hontho par hontho se likhe, bin shabdo ke geet
dharti se ambar tak, gunje jismo ka sangeet
bekhudi ko bekhudi se, aashiqi ko aashiqi se bat karne do
chup tum raho, chup hum rahe
chup tum raho, chup hum rahe
khamoshi ko khamoshi se, zindagi ko zindagi se bat karne do
chup tum raho, chup hum rahe
Or, have Jagjit Singh sing an ode to hope for humanity's sake...
Garaj Baras Pyaasi Dharti Par Phir Paani De Maula
Chidiyo Ko Daane Bachho Ko Gud-dhaani De Maula
Do Aur Do Ka Jod Hamesha Chaar Kaha Hota Hai
Soch Samjhne Walo Ko Thodi Nadani De Maula
Phir Murat Se Bahar Aakar Chaaro Aur Bikhar Jaa
Phir Mandir Ko Koi Meera Deewani De Maula
Or the words that would and still haunt me even though I only vaguely remember the show which had this song for opening credits. Words, memories...just the right mixture and you are transported to worlds where you never actually lived.
Mu ki baat sune har koi, dil ke dard ko jaane kaun
Aawazon ke baazaron mein khamoshi pehchaane kaun
Mu ki baat sune har koi
Sadiyon sadiyon vahi tamasha, Rasta rasta lambi khoj
Lekin jab hum mil jaate hain, Kho jaata hai jaane kaun
Aawazon ke bazaaron mein khamoshi pehchane kaun
Muh ki baat sune har koi !!
Woh mera aaena hai aur main uss ki parrchhai hun.
Mere hi ghar mein rehta hai, mujh jaisa hi jaane kaun
Kiran kiran alsaata suraj, palak palak khulti neend
dheeme dheeme bikhar raha hai, zarraa-zarraa jaane kaun
unse haal-e-dil kabhi,
Aur wo samjhe nahiN,
ye khamoshi kya cheez hai

ऊर्दू में 'निदा' शब्द का अर्थ 'आवाज' होता है - और निदा फाजली (1938-2016) सचमुच एक लोकप्रिय, मनोरंजक और मोतबर आवाज हैं। इस पुस्तक में उनकी नज्में, गजलें और गीत, लोक संवेदना, लोकभावना और लोकनाद की धड़कन, तड़पन और ललकार लिए नजर आते हैं। इनकी शायरी के अनेक रंग हैं। उनका कलाम जिंदगी का सफर है जिसमें शहर-गांव, धूप-छांव, नाते-रिश्ते, बादल-बरसात... सब मौजूद है। एक भटकते हुए बंजारे का मंजरनामा है निदा की शायरी जो रवायत से अपनी ताकत बटोरती है और आधुनिकता से अपनी यारी निभाती है। एक शायर के साथ ही निदा फिल्म इंडस्ट्री के एक बेहतरीन गीतकार भी रहे। उनका कलाम जेहन पर खूब छाता है।
कभी किसी को मुकम्मल जहां नहीं मिलता
कहीं जमीं तो कहीं आसमां नहीं मिलता
बुझा सका है भला कौन वक्त के शोले
ये ऐसी आग है जिसमें धुआं नहीं मिलता...
कभी किसी को मुकम्मल जहां नहीं मिलता
कहीं जमीं तो कहीं आसमां नहीं मिलता
बुझा सका है भला कौन वक्त के शोले
ये ऐसी आग है जिसमें धुआं नहीं मिलता...

My Favourite Poet :)
July 7, 2026
Nida Fazli was born in Delhi and grew up in Gwalior. His father was a recognised Urdu poet, and so he had always been surrounded by poetry throughout his life. The Partition between India and Pakistan affected him terribly as he decided to stay in India while his family moved away to the other country. Later in his life, Nida Fazli moved to Mumbai, continued writing, and even lent some of his most beautiful works to Hindi movies. He is notably known for the song “Hoshwalon Ko Khabar Kya”, which was sung by Jagjit Singh in the movie Sarfarosh.
The collection “आज के प्रसिद्ध शायर - निदा फाजली” includes various ghazals, shers, and nazms by Nida Fazli. You start getting drawn in from the very beginning. The collection does a great job in providing us with a potpourri of emotions ranging from the mundane to as intense as the pain of the Partition. This is probably one of Nida Fazli’s greatest achievements: that he could capture almost any emotion and serve it to us with the garnishings of the most beautiful language.

A collection of strong soft gazals
From love & pain to religion, caste and unity, everything is here. The deep comments behind the easy, short lines are things you want to read them again and again.
The couplets os love interwoven with our construct of reality:
वो सितारा है चमकने दो यूँ ही आँखों में क्या ज़रूरी है उसे जिस्म बनाकर देखो।
फ़ासला नज़रों का धोका भी तो हो सकता है चाँद जब चमके ज़रा हाथ बढ़ाकर देखो।
Written on India-Pakistan and "so-called" difference in Hindus and Muslims:
उठता* है दिलो-जाँ से
धुआँ दोनों तरफ़ ही
ये ‘मीर’ का दीवान
यहाँ भी है वहाँ भी।
On mother who is remembered through the taste and labour:
बेसन की सोंधी रोटी पर
खट्टी चटनी-जैसी माँ
याद आती है चौका-बासन
चिमटा, फुकनी-जैसी माँ।
And the lines which could be th inspiration for Amazon #Mombeagirlagain campaign:
बाँट के अपना चेहरा, माथा
आँखें जाने कहाँ गई फटे पुराने इक अलबम में
चंचल लड़की-जैसी माँ।
Like these many lines this book is full of insights.

सरल भाषा की उम्दा शायरी
जो बहुत उर्दू नही जानते उन्हें भी ये समझ आती है। और जीवन के बहुत बहुत बड़ी बातो को सुंदर से २ लाइन में कह देना।।।
