Biography of Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi
Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi,(November 20, 1916 � July 10, 2006) was a legendary Urdu language Pakistani poet, journalist, literary critic, dramatist and short story author. With some 50 books of poetry, fiction, criticism, journalism and art to his credit, Qasmi was a major figure in contemporary Urdu literature. His poetry stood out among his contemporaries' work for its unflinching humanism, and Qasmi's Urdu afsana (short story) work is considered by some second only to Prem Chand in its masterful depiction of rural culture. He also published and edited the prestigious literary journal Funoon for almost half a century, grooming generations of new writers.

Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi was born in village Anga of Khushab District in Pakistan. A graduate of the Punjab University, Nadeem Qasimi started his career as a government clerk, which he eventually left to pursue journalism. He became active member of the Progressive Writers Movement, for a time holding the position of secretary, and was consequently arrested many times during the 1950s through the 1970s.
In his long career as a writer and editor, Qasmi Sahib had the distinction of editing several prominent literary journals, including Phool, Tehzeeb-i-Niswaan, Adab-i-Lateef, Savera, Naqoosh, and his own brainchild, Funoon. He also served as the editor of the prestigious (now defunct) Urdu daily Imroze. For several decades Qasimi contributed weekly columns to national newspapers; a classic example was "Rawan Dawan" in the daily Jang, which focused on current issues.
Qasimi was the recipient of the President�s Pride of Performance (1968) and the Pakistan Academy of Letters� lifetime achievement award, as well as the country�s highest civil honour, the Sitara-i-Imtiaz, for literature. Published collections of his best-known work include the poetry volumes Jalal-o-Jamal, Shola-i-Gul and Kisht-i-Wafa, and the short story collections Chopaal, Sannata, and Kapaas ka Phool, Bagolay, Tal-o-Gharoob, Sailab-o-Gardab, Anchal, ghar se ghar tak..
Following an illness, Qasimi died on the 10th of July, 2006 of complications from asthma at the Punjab Institute of Cardiology in Lahore. He was survived by a daughter Dr Naheed Qasimi and a son Nauman Qasimi.

rait se butt na bana ay mere ache fankar
rait se butt na bana ay mere ache fankar
ek lamhe ko thahar main tujhe patthar la dun
main tere samne ambar laga dun lekin
kaun se rang ka patthar tere kam ayega
surKh patthar jise dil kahti hai bedil duniya
ya wo pattharai hui ankh ka nila patthar
jis main sadiyon k tahayyur ke pare hon dore
kya tujhe ruh ke patthar ki zarurat hogi
jis pe haq bat bhi patthar ki tarah girati hai
ik wo patthar hai jise kahte hain tahazib-e-safed
us k marmar main siyah Khun jhalak jata hai
ik insaf ka patthar bhi to hota hai magar
hath main tesha-e-zar ho to wo hath ata hai
jitne mayar hain is daur ke sab patthar hain
sher bhi raqs bhi tasvir-o-gina bhi patthar
mere ilham tera zahan-e-rasa bhi patthar
is zamane main har fan ka nishan patthar hai
hath patthar hain tere meri zuban patthar hai
rait se butt na bana ay mere ache fankar
rait se butt na bana ay mere ache fankar
ek lamhe ko thahar main tujhe patthar la dun
main tere samne ambar laga dun lekin
kaun se rang ka patthar tere kam ayega
surKh patthar jise dil kahti hai bedil duniya
ya wo pattharai hui ankh ka nila patthar
jis main sadiyon k tahayyur ke pare hon dore

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
wo koi aur na tha chand Khushk patte the
wo koi aur na tha chand Khushk patte the
shajar se tut k jo fasl-e-gul pe roye the
abhi abhi tumhain socha to kuch na yad aya
abhi abhi to ham ek-dusare se bichre the
tumhare bad chaman par jab ik nazar dali
kali kali main Khizan k chirag jalate the
tamam umr wafa ke gunahgar rahe
ye aur bat ki ham adami to ache the
shab-e-Khamosh ko tanhai ne zaban de di
pahar gunjte the dasht sansanate the
wo ek bar mare jin ko tha hayat se pyar
jo zindagi se gurezan the roz marte the
naye Khayal ab ate hain dhal ke zahan main
hamare dil main kabhi khet lahlahate the
ye irtiqa ka chalan hai k har zamane main
purane log naye admi se darte the
'Nadeem' jo bhi mulaqat thi adhuri thi
k ek chehre ke piche hazar chehre the
wo koi aur na tha chand Khushk patte the
shajar se tut k jo fasl-e-gul pe roye the
abhi abhi tumhain socha to kuch na yad aya
abhi abhi to ham ek-dusare se bichre the
tumhare bad chaman par jab ik nazar dali
kali kali main Khizan k chirag jalate the
tamam umr wafa ke gunahgar rahe
ye aur bat ki ham adami to ache the

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
sham ko subah-e-chaman yad ai
kis ki Khushbu-e-badan yad ai
jab Khayalon main koi mor aya
tere gesu ki shikan yad ai
yad aye tere paikar ke Khutut
apani kotahi-e-fan yad ai
chand jab dur ufaq par duba
tere lahje ki thakan yad ai
din shuaon se ulajhte guzara
rat ai to kiran yad ai
kis ki Khushbu-e-badan yad ai
jab Khayalon main koi mor aya
tere gesu ki shikan yad ai
yad aye tere paikar ke Khutut
apani kotahi-e-fan yad ai
chand jab dur ufaq par duba
tere lahje ki thakan yad ai
din shuaon se ulajhte guzara
rat ai to kiran yad ai

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
lab-e Khamosh se afsha hoga
raz har rang main ruswa hoga
dil ke sahra main chali sard hawa
abr gulzar pe barsa hoga
tum nahi the to sar-e-bam-e-Khayal
yad ka koi sitara hoga
kis tawaqqo pe kisi ko dekhain
koi tum se bhi haseen kya hoga
zinat-e-halqa-e-agosh bano
dur baithoge to charcha hoga
zulmat-e-shab main bhi sharmate ho
dard chamkega to phir kya hoga
jis bhi fankar ka shahkar ho tum
us ne sadiyon tumhain socha hoga
kis qadar karb se chatkhe hai kali
shakh se gul koi tuta hoga
umr bhar roye faqat is dhun main
rat biti to ujala hoga
sari duniya hamain pahachanati hai
koi ham-sa bhi na tanha hoga
raz har rang main ruswa hoga
dil ke sahra main chali sard hawa
abr gulzar pe barsa hoga
tum nahi the to sar-e-bam-e-Khayal
yad ka koi sitara hoga
kis tawaqqo pe kisi ko dekhain
koi tum se bhi haseen kya hoga
zinat-e-halqa-e-agosh bano
dur baithoge to charcha hoga
zulmat-e-shab main bhi sharmate ho
dard chamkega to phir kya hoga
jis bhi fankar ka shahkar ho tum
us ne sadiyon tumhain socha hoga
kis qadar karb se chatkhe hai kali
shakh se gul koi tuta hoga
umr bhar roye faqat is dhun main
rat biti to ujala hoga
sari duniya hamain pahachanati hai
koi ham-sa bhi na tanha hoga

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
kaun kahata hai ke maut ai to mar jaunga
main to darya hun samandar mein utar jaunga
tera dar chor ke main aur kidhar jaunga
ghar mein ghir jaunga sahara mein bikhar jaunga
tere pahlu se jo uthunga to mushkil ye hai
sirf ik shaKhs ko paunga jidhar jaunga
ab tere shehar mein aunga musafir ki tarah
saya-e-abr ki manind guzar jaunga
tera paiman-e-wafa rah ki divar bana
warna socha tha ke jab chahunga mar jaun ga
charasazon se alag hai mera mayar ke main
zaKhm khaunga to kuch aur sanvar jaun ga
ab to Khurshid ko dube hue sadiyan guzrin
ab use dhundne main ta-ba-sahar jaunga
zindagi shamma ki manind jalata hun 'Nadeem'
bujh to jaunga magar subah to kar jaunga
main to darya hun samandar mein utar jaunga
tera dar chor ke main aur kidhar jaunga
ghar mein ghir jaunga sahara mein bikhar jaunga
tere pahlu se jo uthunga to mushkil ye hai
sirf ik shaKhs ko paunga jidhar jaunga
ab tere shehar mein aunga musafir ki tarah

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
kis ko qatil main kahun kis ko masiha samjhun
sab yahan dost hi baithe hain kise kya samajhun
wo bhi kya din the k har waham yaqin hota tha
ab haqiqat nazar aye to use kya samajhun
dil jo tuta to kai hath dua ko uthe
aise mahul main ab kis ko paraya samjhun
zulm ye hai ke hai yaqta teri beganaravi
lutf ye hai ke main ab tak tujhe apna samjhun
sab yahan dost hi baithe hain kise kya samajhun
wo bhi kya din the k har waham yaqin hota tha
ab haqiqat nazar aye to use kya samajhun
dil jo tuta to kai hath dua ko uthe
aise mahul main ab kis ko paraya samjhun
zulm ye hai ke hai yaqta teri beganaravi
lutf ye hai ke main ab tak tujhe apna samjhun

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
مچلتی ہے میری آغوش میں خوشبوئے یار اب تک
میری آنکھوں میں ہے اُس سحرِ رنگین کا خمار اب تک
زمانہ ہو چکا اس اوّلیں مڈبھیڑ کو، لیکن
سنائی دے رہی ہے تیری نظروں کی پکار اب تک
غمِ دوراں کی تاریکی کے سیلِ بیکراں اُمڈے
مگر ٹوُٹا نہیں تیری تجلّی کا حصار اب تک
شبستانوں کے در ہر چند مُجھ پر وا نہیں ہوتے
مگر اِک مست و بیخود رات کا ہے انتظار اب تک
کوئی آتا نہیں اب دل کی بستی میں، مگر پھر بھی
اُمیدوں کے چراغوں سے ہیں روشن رہگزار اب تک
ابھی تک نصف شب کو چاندنی گاتی ہے جھرنوں میں
نہیں بدلی شبابِ متظر کی یاد گار اب تک
جلا رکھے ہیں شہراہوں پہ اشکوں کے دِیے کب سے
نہیں گزرا مگر اس سمت سے وہ شہسوار اب تک
جو حُسن و عشق کی پیکار میں آنکھوں سے ٹپکے تھے
انھیں تاروں سے ہے دامانِ ہستی زرنگار اب تک
شکستِ آرزو کو عِشق کا انجام کیوں سمجھوں
مقابل ہے میرے آئینۂ لیل و نہار اب تک
ندیمؔ ان مشعلوں کی جگمگاہٹ بڑھتی جاتی ہے
کہ لہرایا نہیں اس بزم میں دامانِ یار اب تک
میری آنکھوں میں ہے اُس سحرِ رنگین کا خمار اب تک
زمانہ ہو چکا اس اوّلیں مڈبھیڑ کو، لیکن
سنائی دے رہی ہے تیری نظروں کی پکار اب تک

Re: Ahmed Nadeem QasimI
ذرّے ذرّے میں تیرا عکس نظر آتا ہے
راستہ دیکھتے رہنا بھی اب آساں نہ رہا
راتیں روتی ہیں کہ وہ چاند نہ اُبھرا اب تک
دن بِلکتے ہیں کہ وہ مہرِ درخشاں نہ رہا
پردئہ ارض و سما کا یہ تکلّف کیسا
اِن حجابوں میں تو جلوہ تیرا پنہاں نہ رہا
تُجھ سے اِک آس لگائی تھی پر اے جانِ ندیمؔ
یہ دیا بھی میرے سینے میں فروزاں نہ رہا
راستہ دیکھتے رہنا بھی اب آساں نہ رہا
راتیں روتی ہیں کہ وہ چاند نہ اُبھرا اب تک
دن بِلکتے ہیں کہ وہ مہرِ درخشاں نہ رہا
پردئہ ارض و سما کا یہ تکلّف کیسا
اِن حجابوں میں تو جلوہ تیرا پنہاں نہ رہا
تُجھ سے اِک آس لگائی تھی پر اے جانِ ندیمؔ
یہ دیا بھی میرے سینے میں فروزاں نہ رہا
