And so the voice begins...
Bol, kay lub aazad hain teray
Bol, zaban ab tuk teri hay
Tera sitwaan jism hay tera
Bol kay jaan ab tuk teri hay
Dekh kay aahan ger ki dukaan main
Tund hain sholay, surkh hay aahan
Khulnay lagay qufloon kay dahaanay
phela her ik zanjeer ka daaman
Bol, yeh thora waqt bohat hay
Jism-o-zaban ki moat say pehlay
Bol kay such zinda hay ab tuk
Bol, jo kuch kehna hay keh lay !

Absoluetly beautiful! :)
Try "Hum dekheiN gay, woh waqt key jis ka waada hey" too, I love Faiz Ahmed Faiz's socio-political poetry.

Yes Faraz, U r very right, the tone of faiz is different and not just as regular poetry. I also admire his this "hum dekhain gay" ghazal and few more, Thanks to Iqbal bano, who made me listen such ghazals when I hated poetry.I still dont love it, But I do admire good stuff like foloowing poems

Hey Faraz, Thanks. Thats another one of my favourite nazams. I remmeber it in the voice of Zia Mohiuudin. Amazing. Can u give me the link for faiz's " Hum dekhain gay "?I've seem to lost that link.
Hi. I love that poem by Faiz..he has some very powerful and beautiful poems...my favourite is probably Mere Humdum, Mere Dost and Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat...
