Janid Kashmiri Quotes

“MUHAMMAD (PBUH)

In a world of darkness, despair, and wrong,
Came Muhammad (PBUH), with a light so strong.
Guided by Allah, the best of creation,
He brought to hearts a pure salvation.

With justice, mercy, and words so true,
He showed what faith and love can do.
Idols shattered, ignorance erased,
By his hand, the path of truth embraced.

Sent as mercy, unmatched and kind,
A beacon for every soul and mind.
O Beloved Prophet, your light remains,
Forever in hearts, your love sustains.”

“دل کی سرزمین" (Dil Ki Sarzameen)
میری دل کی سرزمین پر
کبھی اولے جو تھے برسے
میری فصل بھی مٹی اور
میرا آشیاں بھی ٹوٹا

مجھ میں جو رہتے تھے
میرے جو ہوتے تھے
نہ تو اُن کا نام کہیں
نہ کہیں نشان چھوٹا

جو چھپے تھے راز دل میں
جو تھی اُن سُنی کہانی
وہ کِتاب جل گئی اور
بنا مدفن ہے اُس کا”

“The Land of Heart”

On the land of my heart
Where once seeds were sown and it rained,
My harvest turned to dust,
And my dwelling shattered.

Those who used to reside within me,
Who used to be mine,
Neither their names were spoken
Nor did any trace remain.

The secrets hidden in my heart,
The untold stories that were there,
That book burned down,
And became its tomb.”
― Janid Kashmiri

“How to Prove my love”

In the shadows of night, my heart does confide,
Tell me, oh tell me, how to prove my love's guide.

In this world of doubts, how do I find my way?
Show me a path, where my love can truly sway.

The stars above witness my love's pure decree,
But how do I prove it, if no one believes me?

Guide me, oh guide me, in this love's lonely chase,
How do I prove my love in this endless race?

My heart's true desire, a love that won't cease,
But how do I prove it, and find my heart's peace?

So tell me, dear soul, the way to love's release,
How do I prove my love, and let my heart find peace?”

“Gazal of Janid Kashmiri
{NAHI HAI GHAM SIRF TUM KO }

Nahi hai gham sirf tum ko,
Mujhe bhi gham hai bohot jana,
Ye zindagi ki raahon mein,
Hai humne dukh se bhi takrana.

Tumhare aansoon hain qeemti,
Mere bhi dard hain kahin chhupay,
Par humko mil kar chalna hai,
Har mushkil se humko ladna hai.

Raat ke andheron se darte nahi,
Subah ki roshni ko paana hai,
Dil mein umeedon ka chirag jalao,
Har rukh ko roshan kar dena hai.

Ghamon ki baarishon mein bhi,
Sang rahe humara pyaar,
Ek doosre ka saath denge,
Mushkil ghadiyon ko aasan karenge.

Tum ho meri zindagi ka rang,
Meri khushi, meri duniya ho,
Mushkil raahon pe chal kar bhi,
Har manzil tumse hi roshan ho.

To chalo saath hum mil kar,
Har gham ko hum saath sahenge,
Mere haath mein tumhara haath ho,
Har dukh ko hum khushiyon mein badal denge.”

“Mera ishq Mazak nahi hai Jaana”

Mazaq mein hoon, mazaq meri zindagi
Magar mera ishq mazaq nahi hai jaana

Teri yaadon mein basa hai mera dil
Yeh dard, yeh haal, faraq nahi hai jaana

Har pal tujhe sochta hoon mein tanhai mein
Yeh khwab, yeh khayal, saraab nahi hai jaana

Mere ashkon mein chhupi hai teri kahani
Yeh dastaan, yeh bayaan, khaali nahi hai jaana

Har lamha tujh se mohabbat karta hoon mein
Yeh wada, yeh qasam, adakaari nahi hai jaana

Mazaq mein hoon, mazaq meri zindagi
Magar mera ishq mazaq nahi hai jaana”
― Janid Kashmiri

“Tumhare bina zindagi"

Main tumhare sath hamesha hoon, bas ye baat samajh lo
Meri mohabbat sacchi hai, is ko apna yaqeen maan lo

Tumhare bina zindagi, bas ek khaali kitaab hai
Meri har saans tumhare naam, is ko apna khwab maan lo

Ye jo shak ke saaye hain, inhein tum door kar do
Meri wafa ko samjho, meri jaan, is ko apna haq maan lo

Main jo toota hoon, ye tumhare gham mein hai
Meri mohabbat ki shiddat, is ko apni aas maan lo

Tum se bicharna, ye mera naseeb nahi ho sakta
Meri jaan, mere dil ki baat sun lo, mujhe apna naseeb maan lo

Jo dard tumhare dil mein hai, wo mere dil mein hai
Meri mohabbat ki gawahi, is ko apna sukoon maan lo

Main tumhara tha, tumhara hoon, aur tumhara rahoonga
Meri jaan, is haqeeqat ko apne dil mein amanat maan lo

Ab jo dil mein basa hai, wahi rahega hamesha
Mere ishq ki shiddat, is ko apni jaan ka hissa maan lo

Shaista, meri pyari Shaista, bas itni si guzarish hai
Meri jaan, mujhe apna samajh lo, aur kabhi chhod ke mat jao”

“Sab Khafa hai”

Zindagi ke mod pe aisa aa poncha hun
Mohabbat bhi naraaz, dost bhi khafa hai
Ghar ke log bhi mujh se door ho gaye hai
Aur khwabon ki duniya bhi veeran pari hai

Dil ki har dhadkan mein dard ka shor hai
Har saans mein bechaini ka dor hai
Taleem ki rahein bhi ajnabi ho gayi
Har rasta jaise andheron mein gum hai

Mohabbat ke chiragh bujhne ko hai
Doston ki baatein ab bojh ban gayi hai
Ghar ka sukoon bhi kahin kho sa gaya
Zindagi ki ronaqein jaise chhup si gayi hai

Ansuon ki qatar, ghamon ki bahar hai
Har khwab adhura, har khwahish beqarar hai
Mohabbat ka rang, ab dhundhla sa para hai
Aur dil ki har umeed, bujh si gayi hai

Zindagi ke is safar mein tanha sa hun
Jahan koi bhi saathi nahin mera
Mohabbat ho, dosti ho, ya taleem ka rasta
Sab kuch ab bikra, sab kuch hai veeran

Phir bhi yeh dil kehta hai, umeed rakhoon
Andheron ke baad roshni zaroor aaye gi
Khwab phir se sajain ge, dil phir se chamke ga
Zindagi ke is safar mein ek naya sooraj ubhrey ga”

“Waiting for You”
I wait for you in every passing hour,
Longing to see you, to feel your power.
In the silence of the night, I dream of your face,
Holding your hand in a warm embrace.

Every moment without you feels like a year,
My heart whispers your name, so soft, so clear.
I wish to talk to you, to share my soul,
To tell you that with you, I feel whole.

I love you with a depth words cannot convey,
In your presence, my worries melt away.
I want to hold your hand, never let go,
Through every joy, through every woe.

I wait for you, my love, with all my heart,
Hoping soon, we'll never be apart.
In every breath, in every sigh,
It's you I love, until the day I die.”
― Janid Kashmiri

“Head is Heavy"

Head is heavy with the load of pressure,
The pressure that I bought unwillingly.
A burden passed from hands I trust,
Now rests on me, relentlessly.

They say it's life, this endless fight,
To pay the debts that hold me tight.
Each step I take, a sigh of pain,
And every dream, a fading light.

Once I walked with hopes held high,
But now I stumble, wonder why.
The weight of bills, the cost of time,
Leaves me drowning in a silent cry.

Middle-class dreams, now feel so far,
Crushed beneath this heavy bar.
I wear a smile, though deep inside,
I'm lost in waves I can't outride.

Depression whispers in my ear,
You'll never win, it's all too near.
I long for peace, but find despair,
In every shadow, every stare.

I didn’t ask for this, nor choose,
The life where I was born to lose.
But still I stand, though frail and small,
Fighting debts that never fall.

Perhaps one day, I’ll rise above,
With strength unknown, and unseen love.
But for now, I carry on,
In a world where hope seems almost gone.”
― Janid Kashmiri

“TU

Zindagi mein meri bas tu hi tu hai,
Har khwab mein meri bas tu hi tu hai.

Har saans mein jo bas gaya hai khushbu banke,
Us mehka hua jahan mein bas tu hi tu hai.

Mere labon pe tera zikr sada hai,
Mere har qissa-e-gham mein bas tu hi tu hai.

Chaand ke saath jo guftagu karun raaton mein,
Wahan bhi mere lafzon mein bas tu hi tu hai.

Jahan nazar uthaoon, tera chehra dikhta hai,
Har manzar ke rangon mein bas tu hi tu hai.

Zindagi mein meri bas tu hi tu hai,
Har khwab mein meri bas tu hi tu hai.”
― Janid Kashmiri

“کہاں جاؤں گا خبر نہیں

نکل رہا ہوں، کہاں جاؤں گا خبر نہیں
چھوڑ آیا ہوں سب کچھ، دل کو قرار نہیں۔

گھر کے آنگن کی خوشبو، یادوں کا لمس
سب کو چھوڑ آیا، کوئی آثار نہیں۔

تنہا ہوں مگر تیری یاد ساتھ ہے
یہ بوجھ بھی اٹھا رہا ہوں، کوئی غمخوار نہیں۔

نہ جانے راہیں کہاں لے جائیں گی مجھے
بس دل میں تیری محبت ہے، اور کچھ درکار نہیں۔

نہ منزلوں کی فکر ہے، نہ راستوں کا پتہ
بس قدموں کو چلنے دیا، کوئی ہمدردی کارگر نہیں۔

میں چھوڑ آیا ہوں اپنی دنیا کا ہر نشاں
مگر تیرا نقش دل سے مٹنے کو تیار نہیں۔

ہوا کا رخ بدلتا جائے، وقت بھی دشمن بنے
تیرے بغیر یہ زندگی، کچھ بھی خوشگوار نہیں۔”
― Janid Kashmiri

“MAR MAR KE JE RAHA HUN

Je je ke mar raha hun,
Mar mar ke je raha hun,
Dil ka haal ye hai, bas
Jise zehar pi raha hun.

Khud se hi bair hai ab,
Duniya se kya gila hai,
Jashn-e-gham manata
Aansu mein pi raha hun.

Uljhnein meri saheli,
Aansu mere saathi hai,
Pal pal bikhar ke janid,
Apni zindagi ji raha hun.”
― Janid Kashmiri

“GUZAR TA NAHI YE SHAAM-E-GHAM

Guzar ta nahi ye shaam-e-gham
Zindagi ke dukhon ka hai peham sitam

Qadam qadam par thakan ka pehra
Himaton ke chiragh bhi ho gaye madhham

Musaafir hoon raahon ka jin ko khabar
Manzilon ka saraab hai, dil ka maatam

Khawab jo bune the, reza reza huye
Haath khaali rahe, na raha koi dum

Sawaal ye hai, aye falak-e-jafa
Kitna aur sehna hai, bata ye sanam

Guzar jaye ye shaam-e-gham kisi tarah
Warna raah mein bikhar jayein hum”
― Janid Kashmiri

“دیدۂ دہر نے کیا کیا نہ تماشا دیکھا
ہر خوشی کا یہاں زخموں سے گہرا رشتہ دیکھا

کہیں امیدوں کے چراغ بجھتے رہے خاموشی سے
کہیں حسرتوں کو خواہشوں کے پہلو میں مرتا دیکھا

وقت نے کیسے کیسے کھیل کھیلے دنیا کے
محبت کو شکست، نفرت کو پنپتا دیکھا

دلوں میں بستیاں بھی اجڑ گئیں لمحوں میں
بے بسی کو زندگی کے دروازے پہ روتا دیکھا

دیدۂ دہر کبھی سمجھ نہ سکا یہ راز
کیوں ہر مسکان کے پیچھے غم کا سایہ دیکھا؟

پھر بھی یہ دل صدیوں سے سوال کرتا رہا
کہ روشنی کے بعد پھر اندھیرا کیوں دیکھا؟”
