Every language has its own beauty, the way feelings are expressed through words is marvellous. Urdu is known for its flow and sweetness, especially when u r a shayari freak. Mirza Ghalib, Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Kaifi Azmi, Iqbal(one who penned Sare Jahan se acha), Gulzar, Javeed Akhtar and lots lots more have been wonderful writers.

The couplet below penned by Gulzar are my favourite ones. They are etched in memory and i feel so really good on reading it.

Quran haatho.n me.n leke naabiinaa ek namaazii labo.n pe rakhataa thaa
dono.n aa.Nkho.n se chuumataa thaa jhukaake peshaanii yuu.N aqiidat se chhuu rahaa thaa
jo aayat.n pa.Dh nahii.n sakaa un ke lams mahasuus kar rahaa ho
Gulzar
(lams - touch, naabiina - blind man)

What it means is, "A blindman takes the Holy Koran in his hands, and keeps on his lips. He kissed the holy books with his eyes and with respect he touched it.
Whatever verses he could not read, he was trying to feel them through the touch!"

Maybe one day i shall post some more of these writing...:)
