Yasra Rizvi is the ultimate badass we have in our industry. She doesn’t need to advertise it. It’s literally just who she is. We last spoke about her when she got married in the face of all of society and haters, and basically showed every single nosy phuppo in our society a giant middle finger. And as of late, Yasra has been totally winning our hearts over with her one of her talents that we had absolutely no idea about before.
Yasra is the Pakistani answer to Rupi Kaur, with her extremely amazing Instagram poetry
She’s been giving us some very hard hitting poems, lately, like “Kya”
“Kya hum donoun phir se woh pehle wale ho payein ge
Woh mein
Woh tum
Jo hum se pehle hote the
Kya woh waapis aajayein ge?”
“Duniya Wale Kya Kahein Ge” is a poem about a girl who is fighting society to marry the man she loves the most
“Kuch gum sum si pareshan si, kal ek saheli aayi thi
Us ki roshan aankhoun mein behki hui tanhai thi
Chand safaid baaloun ko rang nahi woh paayi thi
Meine us ka haal jo poocha, ander woh toot pari thi aur baahir se muskayi thi
Sub sakhiyan pi gher ko hui baraat nahi koi aayi thi
Baji nahi shehnai thi
Itni achi, itni pyaari, kisi ko na woh bhai thi?
Pasand woh jis ko aayi thi
Bhalla sa ek larka tha
Pyaar bhi us se kerta tha
Ji jaan se woh tau marta tha
Gher bhi acha log bhi achey
Per rishte se inkar hua
Maa baap ko jo ikteyaar hua
Yeh donoun saath mein parhtey the
Ya ishq aashiqui kerte the
Duniya wale kya kahein ge
Is baat se sub darte the”
“Kaam Kam Aur Baatein Zyaada” gave us an insight into social commentators who only talk about the vices of society but never really do anything to fix them
“Kaam kam aur baatein zyaada
Phir mulq ko salabatein dada?
Is ko third world bana ker
Immigration ka hai irada
Tum ne mulq ko kya diya hai?
Paida ho ke ehsan kiya hai?
Kabhi jhaaroo utha ke haath mein
Chand dost mile ke saath mein
Galli muhalla saaf kiya hai?
Kubhi bijli chori munafa khori
Tum ne kub insaf kiya hai?
Kisi se upna rizq hai baanta?
Ya khud pe hi israf kiya hai?
Kitna isko socha hai?
Kis tarhan se nocha hai?
Itna hi aetraaf kiya hai
Shukar kero ye chal raha hai
Muntazir ye jal raha hai
Kesa inkashaf kiya hai
Is ne tau ubh tak maaf kiya hai”
“Zindagi” speaks about the intricacies of life
“Khudkushi haraam hai
Lekin ye zindagi, yeh zindagi bhi koi kaam hai
Mere tau bus ki baat nahi hai
Chain ki koi raat nahi
Dunya bhar ke bazaaroun mein
Kahin mere liye saughat nahi
Yeh din jo peeche choot gaya hai
Bhaag raha tha
Daur raha tha
Jaane kis ki khwahish mein
Sach ka bazu mor raha tha
Dekho kitni garmi hai
Un cheekhoun ki hararat se
Mera ander bol utha hai
Haatoun mein kashkol utha hai
Aaj tau mujhe maar de, Maula
Aasman ko pharr de, Maula”
And finally, “Kya Paar Aik Baar Hota Hai”, speaks our hearts out
“Kya pyaar ek baar hota hai
Yeh baar baar hota hai
Tau phir kiun kisi ek ka intezaar hota hai?
Wohi tau sacha pyaar hota hai
Acha?
Pyaar bhi kya insaan hota hai?
Kabhi sacha, kabhi jhoota, beimaan hota hai?
Is ki ragoun mein bhi kahndaan hota hai?
Aur maqsad e hayaat, nafa, nuqsaan hota hai?
Pyaar tau pyaar hota hai
Bichar bhi jaye tau dildaar hota hai
Jis se bhi ho
Jub bhi ho
Shandaar hota hai
Ho ek baar, ya sau dafa
Pyaar ka bhi shumaar hota hai?”
