Restless moments of creativity & impressions of feelings, colors and light
I remember the days when I started to say verses, and since I was not a writer, but a keen reader, I never wrote a verse down until I arrange it completely in my mind. It takes time — hours — and some time — days. And as Jameel Jalib confesses that these moments are the most painful moments for a poet (or creater) when he is passing through this time of creativity, I have experienced this restlessness many times when I have ever engaged myself into writing something — and the following gazal is one of my first — when it took me whole night to transfer some impressions of feelings, colors and light from my mind onto paper. All what I got in the end — were these five verses:
ÙˆÙ‚ØªÙ Ø³ØØ± جو دÙÙ† Ú©ÛŒ Ø·Ø±Ø Ù†Ùکلا تھا
شام Ûوتے ÛÛŒ ÚˆÚ¾Ù„ گیا کوئی
جب ستاروں Ù†Û’ Ø§Ù“Ø¦ÛŒÙ†Û Ø¯ÛŒÚ©Ú¾Ø§
اپنی کرنوں سے جل گیا کوئی
تجھ کو معلوم نظر ڈالنے والے
موم سا دل پگھل گیا کوئی
میں تھا، تم تھے یا Ø±Ø§Ø³ØªÛ Ø§ÛŒØ³Ø§
چلتے چلتے بدل گیا کوئی
ÙˆÛØ§Úº پھولوں میں Ø±Û Ú©Û’ جی Ù†Û Ù„Ú¯Ø§
یاں، Ú©Û Ú©Ø§Ù†Ù¹ÙˆÚº میں پل گیا کوئی
I write by the name of Sohail (سÛيل), and I don’t write much often — in fact, I just don’t write down any thing that comes into my mind, just like many regular poets do. But I make myself write something which can really keep tickling with my heartbeat for days. So I also have lost a treasure of ideas and expressions — just by not capturing them in time — just because I tend to avoid the restless moments of creativity!
