Husn-e-Jaana Ki Tareef Mumkin Nahin

When it comes to praising the glory of your beloved, poetry always comes handy.  Here are some of the best couplets that will surely tickle your romantic imagination.

On the fourteenth night of the moon
We thought of the melodies of your tune
Something in the sky was shining bright
Was that the moon or thy glazing sight?

All the luxuries of life
Belong to him
On whose forelimb rest
Your dark scattered tresses

Your burgundy lips
Appear to me
Like the solitaire of Badakhshan!
Your fairy-tale eyes
Appear to me
Like the poetic gaze of Ghazalan!

As I see your half sleepy eyes,
I lie disarrayed
Holding the goblet in my hand
For I couldn’t find it intoxicating
Any longer

From the instant
My eyes encountered her stare
My eyes aren’t mine
Anymore.

Looking at your roseate cheeks
And dew-kissed lips
Did I realize that
Flowers do blossom at places
Other than gardens.

So who are you sharing these couplets with?
