Chaak Daman Ko Dekha To Mila Eid Ka Chand

Eid Poetry by Saghar Siddiqui

Chaak Daman Ko Dekha To Mila Eid Ka Chand

Apni Tasweer Kahan Bhool Gaya Eid Ka Chand

Chaak = Rift; 

Is Ke Aabrooye Khameda Ki Tarha Teekha Hai

Apni Aankhon Mein Bari Dair Chubha Eid Ka Chand

Aabrooye = Eyebrows; Khameda = Curved; Teekha = Sharp

Door Wairaan Baseeray Mein Diya Ho Jese

Gham Ki Deewar Se Dekha To Laga Eid Ka Chand

Weraan = Isolated; Baseeray = Nest;

Ley Key Halaat Ke Sehraon Mein Aa Jata Hai

Aaj Bhi Khald Ki Rangeen Fiza Eid Ka Chand

Sehraon = Deserts; Khald = Immortalize

Talkhiyan Barh Gayn Jab Zeest Key Pemaany Mein

Ghool Ke Dard Ke Maaron Ney Piya Eid Ka Chand

Talkhiyan  = Bitter; Pemaany = Scale;

Chasm To Wusat-E-Aflaak Mein Khoyi ‘Saghar’

Dil Ne Ik Aur Jaga Dhoond Liya Eid Ka Chand

Wusat = Expand; Aflaak = Heavens; Khoyi = Lost
