Nostalgia

hostel kay saleti kabootar
oonchi uran urtay thay
ooday ooday badalon ke peeche
asman se milker atay thay
wahan barish hoti thi
to asman khil uthta tha
saray rang mil ker atay thay
qatron ka tana bana sajanay
hum jheel kinaray beth kar
pyar k khwab buntay thay
tel se doobay french fries
batkhon ko khilaya kerte thay
chatri ka namo nishan na tha
hum to barish me bhi
pakran pakrayee khelte thay
aur tasweeren khenchtay
khushi kay pal samettay
kabhi na thaktay thay
un azad panchyon ki tarah
jo abhi bhi wahan mehw-e-parwaz hain

This is my first ever Urdu poem. Its written in fond memory of the university hostel days.
