Hailing from Ghazipur in UP, he made Bhopal his home. He shuns publicity and prefers to enrich literature silently.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Read his ghazal:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
वरक़ है मेरे सहीफ़े* का आस्मां क्या है&lt;br /&gt;
रहा ये चांद तो शायद तुम्हारा चेहरा है&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
जो पूछता था मेरी उम्र उससे कह देना&lt;br /&gt;
किसी के प्यार के मौसम का एक झोंका है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
फ़िज़ा की शाख़ पे लफ़्ज़ों के फूल खिलने दो&lt;br /&gt;
जिसे सुकूत समझते हो ज़र्द पत्ता है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;मेरे क़दम भी कोई शाम काश ले लेती&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;मेरा सफ़र भी तो सूरज की तरह तन्हा है&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ज़रूर चांद के होंटों पे मेरा नाम आया होगा&lt;br /&gt;
मेरी मिज़्ह से सितारा सा कोई टूटा है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #38761d;&quot;&gt;हर एक शख़्स को उम्मीद अब उसी से है&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #38761d;&quot;&gt;तमाम शहर में वो एक ही तो रुस्वा है&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;Now read in Roman English script:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
varaq hai mere sahiife kaa, aasmaaN kyaa hai&lt;br /&gt;
rahaa yeh chaaNd to shaayad tumhaaraa chehraa hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
jo puuchhtaa thaa meri umr usse kah dena&lt;br /&gt;
kisii ke pyaar ke mausam kaa ek jhoNkaa hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
fizaa ki shaaKh pe lafzoN ke phuul khilne do&lt;br /&gt;
jise sukuut smaajhte ho zard patta hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
mere qadam bhii ko&#39;ii shaam kaash le letii&lt;br /&gt;
mera safar bhii to suraj ki taraH tanhaa hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
zaruur chaaNd ke honToN pe meraa naam aayaa hogaa&lt;br /&gt;
merii miZhah se sitaara saa ko&#39;ii TuuTaa hai&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Ali Abbas Ummid&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;u&gt;Mini-dictionary&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*saheefah=book, revealed book&lt;br /&gt;

It tells the world about being hopeful, that we know we did our work honestly and knowing that what we have done, will pave way for better things to come, even after us, is the message of the couplet. 

It urges man to do constructive work, do his or her bit towards the society and let the people behind, come forward later and have them enjoy the success, bask in the light. 

Now, read the couplet in Roman English, Urdu and Devnagari script, Hindi. 

Hamein khabar hai ki ham hain chiraaGh-aakhir-e-shab
Hamaare baad andhera nahi, ujaala hai

ہمیں خبر ہے کہ ہم ہیں چراغ آخر شب
ہمارے بعد اندھیرا نہیں، اجالا ہے 

हमें खबर है कि हम हैं चराग़-ए-आख़िर-ए-शब
हमारे बाद अंधेरा नहीं उजाला है

We know we are the lamps of the last night
After us, there is no darkness, but light and just light

Zaheer Kashmiri wrote the couplet.

His struggle led to a tremendous change, however, casteist violence and casteism remain a major issue in the country.&amp;nbsp;In fact, Dr Ambedkar had cautioned his followers as well. The verse is a poetic tribute to his farsightedness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[&lt;b&gt;नोट:&lt;/b&gt; डॉ भीमराव आंबेडकर न सिर्फ भारत के संविधान के निर्माता बल्कि बीसवीं सदी की दुनिया की बड़ी शख्सियतों में से एक थे. उन्होंने दलितों और पिछड़ों के साथ ज़ात की बुनियाद पर होने वाले ज़ुल्म और छुआछूत के खिलाफऐसी जद्दोजहद की जिसका कोई मुक़ाबला नहीं.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;पूरी ज़िंदगी उन्होंने अपने समाज को जागरूक करने के लिए वक़्फ़ कर दी और इस समाज के मसाएल और उनके हल भी बताये. ये नज़्म उस वक़्त लिखी गयी थी जब दलितों के खिलाफ वायलेंस की एक साथ कई घटनाएं हुईं. इस नज़्म में यही मेसेज है कि अगर उनकी तालीम को सही मानों में लोग समझते, ख़ास तौर पर बताये गए&amp;nbsp;नुस्खे जिसकी तरफ उन्होंने इशारा भी किया था, तो&amp;nbsp;जो कुछ ज़ुल्म और असमानता&amp;nbsp;अभी भी हम देख रहे, वह नहीं होता. महान शख्सियतों के साथ अक्सर ऐसा होता है मगर डॉ आंबेडकर ने अपने समाज को चेताया भी था.&amp;nbsp;नज़्म को इस कांटेक्स्ट में पढ़ा जाए ]&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;یہ نظم، در اصل ڈاکٹر بھیم راؤ امبیڈکر کی شخصیت، ان کے دلت اور پست اقوام کے لئے کئے اٹھائے گئے اقدام اور انکی&amp;nbsp; عظمت کا اعتراف ہے۔ شمس الر حمٰن علوی کا آبائ وطن لکھنؤ اور قصبہ کاکوری ہے مگر بھوپال میںرہائش اور تعلیم ہوئ۔ شاعری اور صحافتی زندگی بھی بھوپال میں گزری ہے۔&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://www.bestghazals.net/2020/12/poetry-in-memory-of-dr-br-ambedkar-voh.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOZ7jXu8wkjvGneBSf9n4dSvWY4PDSrECAPnSSML-4X7eqmhPZfaBA1wjQAZACBLw6sDhPB3Waf_uhf1-vedbawG3KccKwRm7bYtX3ShEM9iDknWOClGOnbb-nF4KaL39oo5GM/s72-w400-h336-c/Poem_on_Dr_Ambedkar_by_Shams_Ur_Rehman_Alavi_Poetry_Babasaheb.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37819926.post-10625975107899312</guid><pubDate>Sat, 22 Aug 2020 09:52:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-08-08T20:43:47.612-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Ameer Imam</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Karbala</category><title>Ameer Imam&#39;s poetic tribute to Imam Husain&#39;s martyrdom in the battle of Karbala</title><description>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvDxIyB7oFUB73LUxXGGWU9J3o48AhoUU0Whw8vnh4cYzpeoUEY3iJrdZUm-1Ip1AD-LxX5BXS7Cb1eVokxBzd_LgXuKDpdl3dr4yqK2VwXwIkwtNHMgIBfyntvTrttJV9dBeK/s587/Urdu_poet_Ameer_Imam_Ghazal_tribute_Imam_Husain.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;318&quot; data-original-width=&quot;587&quot; height=&quot;318&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvDxIyB7oFUB73LUxXGGWU9J3o48AhoUU0Whw8vnh4cYzpeoUEY3iJrdZUm-1Ip1AD-LxX5BXS7Cb1eVokxBzd_LgXuKDpdl3dr4yqK2VwXwIkwtNHMgIBfyntvTrttJV9dBeK/w585-h318/Urdu_poet_Ameer_Imam_Ghazal_tribute_Imam_Husain.jpg&quot; width=&quot;585&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Ameer Imam&amp;nbsp; has emerged as a major poetic voice from the region and has a carved a niche for himself in Urdu poetry, in a short time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A deep understanding of Islamic history--from Siffin to Karbala, and circumstances that led to the battle of Karbala, are needed to understand some of the couplets.

as a symbol, in fact, it is one of the most powerful expressions in Urdu poetry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a metaphor, it exhorts to raise voice against tyranny, to resist and fight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The message is to stand by the principles, against all odds.

&lt;div&gt;Shams Ur Rehman Alavi hails from Lucknow but has been brought up in Bhopal. This ghazal* deals with injustice, sufferings in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ज़मीं पर ज़ुल्म की हद जो रही है&lt;br /&gt;
खुदाया पार अब वोह हो रही है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc0000;&quot;&gt;जहाँ में मौत का ही रक़्स जारी&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc0000;&quot;&gt;अज़ल* से ज़िंदगी बस रो रही है&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ज़रा पूछो तो उसका दर्द जा कर&lt;br /&gt;
ज़मीं ये बोझ कैसे ढो रही है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
अदब तहज़ीब थी जिसकी विरासत&lt;br /&gt;
खबर उस नस्ल को क्या खो रही है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
चिता जलने को है अब राक्षस की&lt;br /&gt;
तभी तो रौशनी सी हो रही है&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;शम्स&amp;nbsp;उर रहमान अलवी&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;Now read in Roman script:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zamii.n par zulm ki had Jo rahi hai&lt;br /&gt;
Khudaaya! paar ab voh Ho rahi hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JahaaN mein maut ka hi raqs jaari&lt;br /&gt;
Azal se zindagi bas Ro rahi hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Adab tahzib thi jiski viraaast&lt;br /&gt;
Khabar us nasl ko kya Kho rahi hai!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zaraa poochho to uska dard jaa kar&lt;br /&gt;
Zamii.n ye bojh kaise Dho rahi hai&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chita jalne ko hai ab rakshas ki&lt;br /&gt;
Tabhi to roshni si Ho rahi hai&lt;br /&gt;
