Today was World Teen Mental Wellness Day. I hope all teens out there are looking after their mental health. I know mental health stuff is overlooked in Desi homes, so many of us are left to handle it alone. But hey, you're not alone. There are tons of us who care about you and have your back. So, if you ever need to talk or vent, our DMs are wide open.Take care, okay?

Har Lehza Ba Shakal Aan Blink, And There He Was In A Different Form.,

POET JALALUDDIN RUMI

Hamne beparda tujhe maah-jabeen dekh liya

Ab na kar parda ke o parda-nasheen dekh liya

Hamne dekha tujhe aankhon ki siyaah putli mein

Saat pardon mein tujhe parda-nasheen dekh liya

Ham nazar-baazon se tu chhup na saka jaan-e-jahaan

Tu jahaan jaake chhupa hamne vahin dekh liya

Tere deedaar ki thi hamko tamanna, so tujhe

Log dekhenge vahaan, hamne yahin dekh liya

Har lehza ba shakal aan but-e-ayyaar baraamad

Dil burd-o-nihaan shud

Har dam ba libaas-e-deegar aan yaar baraamad

Gah peer-o-javaan shud

Khud kooza-o, khud koozaagar-o, khud gil-e-kooza

Khud rind-e-subu kash

Khud bar sar-e-aan kooza khareedaar baraamad

Bishkast-o ravaan shud

Nai nai ke hamin bood ke mi aamad-o mi raft

Har qarn ke deedum

Ta aaqbat aan shakl-e-arab vaar baraamad

Daara-e-jahaan shud

Rumi sukhane kufr na guftast na goyad

Munkir nashvedash

Kaafir buvad aan kas ke ba inkaar baraamad

Mardood-e-jahaan shud

Notes by scholar Homayra Ziad: 1. Sly beloved or ayyār: An ayyār is a “pious rogue” and Love often appears in this form in Persian Sufi poetry.

2. Many manifestations of Reality: This imagery evokes the infinite manifestations of the Divine Unity. A Qur’anic verse that is often cited by Sufis is: “And God’s in the East and the West. Wherever you turn, there is God’s Face.” (Sura 2:115) All distinctions vanish in the Face of God. This is the central idea evoked by Sachal Sarmast too in the next song. In a similar poem, Kabir says… In an elephant you became an elephant An ant is just a little you! As an elephant driver you sit on top the one saying “move along” is you only you! With thieves you become a thief You’re in with the scoundrels too! You’re the one who robs and runs! The cop who nabs you, is you only you! (A song from the oral traditions of Kabir in Malwa in central India, translation by Linda Hess) 3. The broken cup: The broken cup means that no category is absolute, and that divine manifestations are always in a state of flux. The only absolute is God’s essence. 4. “Until one day he emerged…”: A reference to the Prophet (the Perfect Human, insān-i kāmil). 5. Veiling the truth: According to the Persian scholar Mohammad Reza Shafi'i-Kadkani, the last two stanzas were originally: Rumi sokhan-e kofr nagoftast (nagofteh ast) o nagooyad Monker nashavidash Kafir bovad an kas keh be enkar daramad az doozakhian shod

Many thanks to Fereshteh Amanat-Kowssar at Yale University for pointing this out. I have translated the poem based on the original, which makes far more sense than the sung version. Kufr means hiding or covering up, and the word kāfir is used to describe one who “covers up” or denies the truth. Rumi’s words, though apparently blasphemous, are closer to the truth.

i have thought that maybe my creative endeavors would go well if i did more autobiographical stuff but my life feels just kind of sad and pathetic overall so like -_- bc the more i think about my relationship wrt my identities + culture its like wow . i'm in a kinda shitty middle ground

#txt #its the middle ground between being poc and lgbt and feeling forced to pick cultures et cetera #but then the secondary level of being diaspora where you can't connect with your heritage bc of language barriers and so on #like i would enjoy looking into like folklore and stuff of pk #but then i have to remember that this identity is like attached to religion #and it's like. my whole life ive been pk + muslim and being detached from islam makes it far harder to connect #i dont know. Worlds kinda dumb #im not even first gen like i apparently didnt learn urdu bc not even my MOM learned proper urdu from her parents like . be so for real

دُکھ میں نِیر بہا دیتے تھے سُکھ میں ہنسنے لگتے تھے

دُکھ میں نِیر بہا دیتے تھے سُکھ میں ہنسنے لگتے تھے سیدھے سادے لوگ تھے لیکن ، کِتنے اَچھے لگتے تھے

نفرت چَڑھتی آندھی جیسی ، پیار اُبلتے چَشموں سا بَیری ہوں یا سَنگی ساتھی ، سارے اپنے لگتے تھے

بہتے پانی دُکھ سُکھ بانٹیں ، پیڑ بڑے بُوڑھوں جیسے بچّوں کی آہٹ سُنتے ہی ، کھیت لہکنے لگتے تھے

ندیا ، پَربت ، چاند ، نگاہیں، مالا ایک کئی دانے چھوٹے چھوٹے سے آنگن بھی، کوسوں پھیلے لگتے تھے

A Woman Is Laughing - Fahmida Riaz - Pakistan

Translator: Ankita Saxena (Urdu)

Under the singing watch of a rocky mountain a woman is laughing. No fame, no money but bold with the guts of a free body: a woman laughing.

In all the world’s temples, you will not hear the lush tremor of a woman laughing. In the market of all treasures, you will not find the baby balm of a woman laughing. This rare narcotic she bears so freely cannot be captive, sold.

Come then, become breeze. In the wild valley, lapping her face with kisses – hair flying long and loose, wind’s daughter is singing alongside the wind: a woman is laughing.

World war 2 officially started when Germany invaded Poland,but prior to that Germany had already annexed a number of territories and the rest of the Europe just meekly accepted.

When russia annexed Georgia and crimea Europe once again accepted the aggression and the result is full blown invasion of Ukraine.

At what point do we learn from history???

Will history repeat itself???

"We too have experienced moments of despair,

Where there's no worry, only appreciation in the air.

I wept for someone who never even thought of me,

I had hoped to forget you as time passed by, you see.

You hurt me deeply, shattered my heart's core,

But to this day, I remember you, that's for sure.

What can I write about you, my dear?

You weren't evil, and praise for you is clear.

You've met countless souls, it's true,

But reuniting with me is something you won't do."

.

Galati ki hamne bhi kbhi

Jaha fikr nai vaha kadar ki kbhi

Roya uske khatir jisne yad tk Kia nai

Socha tha bhul jaunga wakt ke sath tuze

Toda bohot tune pr Aaj bhi muze tu yaad hai

Kya likhu tere bare me ..

Burai Teri hoti nai

Tarif ke tu kabil nai

Milo lakho se tum

Pr ab milna hmse fir nai"
