Poetry and Narration

Suna hai loeg usay aankh bhar ke dekhtay hain, 
Toe us ke sheher mai kuch din, theher ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai rabt hai usko kharaab haaloen say 
so apnay aap ko barbaad kar ke dekhtay hain 

Suna hai dard ki gaahak hai chashm-e-naaz us ki 
so hum bhee us ki galee say guzar ke dkehtay hain 

suna hai us ko bhee hai sher-o-shaairi se shughaf 
toe hum bhee mu'jzay apnay hunar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai bolay to baatoen se phool jharrtay hain 
yeh baat hai to chalo baat kar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai raat usay chaand taktaa rehta hai 
sitaaray baam-e-falak se utar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai din ko usay titliyaan sataati hain 
suna hai raat ko jugnoo theher ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai hashr hain us ki ghazaal si aankhain 
suna hai usko hiran dasht bhar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai raat se barrh kar hain kaakulain us ki 
suna hai shaam ko saayay guzar ke dekhtay hain 

sunaa hai uski siyaah chashm'gee qayaamat hai 
so usko surma faroesh aah bhar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai uskay laboen se gulaab jaltay hain 
so hum bahaar pe ilzaam dhar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai aaina-timsaal hai jabeen uski 
jo saadah dil hain, usay ban sanwar ke dekhtay hain 

bas ik nigaah se lutt'ta hai qaafla dil ka 
so raah-rawaan-e-tamanna bhi dar ke dekhtay hain 

suna hai us ke shabistaan se muttasil hai bahisht 
maseeh udhar ke bhee jalway idhar ke dekhtay hain 

rukay to gardishain us ka tawaaf karti hain 
chalay to usko zamaanay theher ke dekhtay hain 
kahaaniaaan he sahi, sab mubaalghay he sahi, 
agar woh khwaab hai to ta'beer kar ke dekhtay hain 

ab us ke sheher mai thehrain, keh kooch kar jaayain, 
'Faraaz' aao sitaaray safar ke dekhtay hain. 

Suna Hai Log Usay - Ahmad Faraz

📝 Lyrics:

Been wondering how i could belong here
Cause this sure as hell don’t feel like home
I don’t want to live and die here
Sometimes I just wanna go

Maybe it’s the girl
Or maybe it’s just God I’m running from
Maybe it’s this life
Of countless times that I have tried
to break i’ve tried to break
the cycles

I don’t know if I can keep on
Hearing all I’ve done wrong
seems like no one thinks that day’s gone
But I assure you it is done

Maybe it’s the girl
Or maybe it’s just God I’m running from
Maybe it’s this life
Of countless times that I have tried
to break i’ve tried to break
the cycles

Cycles
