Hi All,
Today sitting in soporific SCM lecture... I remembered an old sher by Jigar. Jigar use to sell goggles at moradabad railway station in UP before making it big in the world of Poetry. In his time there was no mushaira considered complete without him, owner for rich baritone, he had a gift of delivering shers.
The sher is:
Na garaz kisi se na vaasta mujhe kaam apne hi kaam se
teri zikr se teri fikr se teri yaad se tere naam se.
by Jigar Moradabadi
Garaz : no favors required from anybody
Vaasta : relation
Enjoy

About Me
- Abid Husain
- Hmmm... I am a weird sort of person with strange ideas. I am honest to the point that I embarrass people around me. I am stupid enough to think, that all people are good, they love my poetry and the color of shirt I am wearing. Still, I consider my self a first born cynic who is an optimist to the point of foolishness. I am a man of bizarre interests, I mean Urdu Poetry and Cricket Umpiring, give me a break!! I try to read classics and get bored and still read them. I have read Lord of the Rings three times. stupid huh?? Finally, I am a person who takes small pleasures of life very seriously. A cup of tea (my friends will vouch for that), a good book, a cool wind, a good joke, a simple song, a nice sher can give me immense pleasure. I am uncommon, abnormal.
