Subah

We like the morning hour for so many qualities like its coolness, freshness, pleasant breeze, chirping of birds, and such other reasons. Metaphorically, it also announces the victory of light over darkness. Poets have celebrated this hour with great enthusiasm. Here are some examples.

sham-e-firaq ab na puchh aai aur aa ke tal gai

sham-e-firaq ab na puchh aai aur aa ke tal gai dil tha ki phir bahal gaya jaan thi ki phir sambhal gai query not my lonely night it came and went away the heart was consoled and life managed not to fray bazm-e-khayal men tire husn ki shama jal gai dard ka chand bujh gaya hijr ki raat dhal gai in the parlour of my thoughts your beauty's lamp was lit the moon of pain vanished again, the night of parting quit jab tujhe yaad kar liya subh mahak mahak uthi jab tira ghham jaga liya raat machal machal gai when your thoughts arose, fragrant was the morn when your sorrow's woke, the night was all forlorn dil se to har moamla kar ke chale the saaf ham kahne men un ke samne baat badal badal gai i ventured forth with all my thoughts properly arranged in her presence when i spoke, the meaning had all changed akhir-e-shab ke ham-safar 'faiz' na jaane kya hue rah gai kis jagah saba subh kidhar nikal gai where the night's companions went i do not know where did the breeze vanish where did the morning go sham-e-firaq ab na puchh aai aur aa ke tal gai dil tha ki phir bahal gaya jaan thi ki phir sambhal gai query not my lonely night it came and went away the heart was consoled and life managed not to fray bazm-e-khayal mein tere husn ki shama jal gai dard ka chand bujh gaya hijr ki raat dhal gai in the parlour of my thoughts your beauty's lamp was lit the moon of pain vanished again, the night of parting quit jab tujhe yaad kar liya subh mahak mahak uthi jab tera gham jaga liya raat machal machal gai when your thoughts arose, fragrant was the morn when your sorrow's woke, the night was all forlorn dil se to har moamla kar ke chale the saf hum kahne mein un ke samne baat badal badal gai i ventured forth with all my thoughts properly arranged in her presence when i spoke, the meaning had all changed aakhir-e-shab ke ham-safar 'faiz' na jaane kya hue rah gai kis jagah saba subh kidhar nikal gai where the night's companions went i do not know where did the breeze vanish where did the morning go
