A poem for Lebanon
Dr. Shahid Masood on behalf of ARY One World was the first journalist to travel to Lebanon and report what was happening there. Followed by Hamir Mir of GEO News. I was watching one of his program few days ago on GEO News, which he sent from Lebanon. He said a very beautiful poem of Faiz Ahmed Faiz from 1982, when he had written it about the War that time. It surely fits in for now too.
I recommend downloading the audio file. The quality might not be too good as I recorded it from TV with my Sony Ericsson W800i, but one can hear it easily.

Mere dil mere musafir
Huwa phir se hukm saadir
Keh watan badar hon ham tum
Dain gali gali sadaaen
Karain rukh nagar nagar ka
Keh surgaagh koi paaen
Siyyar-e-naama bar ka
Har ek ajnabi se poochain
Jo pata tha apne ghar ka
Sare kooe na-a-shnaaeyaan
Hamain din se raat karna
Kabhi es se baat karna
Kabhi us se baat karna
Kahoon kis se main ke kia hai
Shab-e-gham buri balaa hai
Hamain yeh bhi tha ghaneemat
Jo koi shumaar hota
Hamain kia bura tha marna
Agar ek baar hota
Hats down for all the Media personnel in Lebanon, the one’s who are sending back the true images.

Yah why don’t you rub it in some more…
Thanks for liking it and the comment. Hain? What does rub it in some more mean?
Yaar, I don’t know how to say it in Urdu. Like, jaisai suppose kero I have a new laptop ya, aur agar aap kai paas koi kharaab ya baikaar laptop ho, aur phir main baar baar kahun dekho mera laptop, yes my laptop, my laptop is new, look at it, Toshiba laptop, etc. etc. lol kissi ko tapana, something along those lines.
When I keep telling people about my Ziyarat trips in Medina and Makkah to people that haven’t been there, they say okay stop rubbing it in!
Get it?
Hehe. Jao yaar :p.
