صبح دم دیکھ کر اس کو
ذرا سا مسکرا دینا
سردی میں وضو کرنے کو
پانی خود گرم کرنا
کبھی چائے بنا کر اپنے
ہاتھوں سے پلا دینا
میز پر کھانے کی
پہلے اس کو بٹھلانا
کہیں جاتے, ہلا کر ہاتھ اپنا
الودع کہنا
اس کے لئے ہر بار
دروازہ کھولنا پہلے
اس کے سارے لفظوں کو
بہت ہی غور سے سننا
ہر آہ پر اس کی
شانے تھام کر چلنا
اس کی ہر ہنسی کے ساتھ
خود بھی مسکرا دینا
تن من بھی وار دینا
ہر اس کے کام پر
وہ کر رہا ہے پیار
اصولوں کے نام پر
یہ دنیا خوبصورت ہے“ سے “
Translation
In the morning when he sees her
he smiles
In winters he himself
heats water for wuddu ( ablution)
At times makes tea
and let her drink from his own hands
At the dining table
asks her to sit first
While going out somewhere
waves hand to her
Every time for her
opens the door first
Listens attentively
to all her words
When she is sad
holds her from shoulders
With her every laughter
he himself smiles
Give his heart and mind
to her every wish
He is loving her
in the name of principles.

a…agree there are no rules in love..but I think love and compromise go together..like half full-half empty glass…it is the way we want to look at it.
DFR…. 🙂
Ayesha…Thankyou! 🙂 …and yes you can copy with complete reference and link, if you don’t mind. Thanks for asking 🙂

Zios please explain how love and compromise go together ?
November 30, 2008 at 3:51 pm
I mean how can you love someone if you feel you are following principles or compromising..in love there is no such feeling..coz you love someone from your heart ..so basically you are following your heart ..and this is not compromising ..its something you love to do ..and if its compromising then,you cant call it love coz you know its not something you like …there are no boundaries in love ..or may be im too innocent to understand this 🙂

Aww, I miss my Shahryar.. 😦

I second with what A said. In love there are no rules, no boundaries, no nothing. It is a feeling much greater than that. Beyond any principles. :)))

A… First, I am talking of love between a man and woman..Now, when we love, we do compromise on many traits in that person unintentionally or sometime we just ignore, and and I think that is a compromise for love…
similarly when we compromise ( infact we think we compromise) we love things unknowingly but we try to make ourselves believe that just because we don’t love it is a compromise… even though you have all the traits in that person that you always wished for.
Thats why I think you are always loving and compromising at the same time.. some people view only the love side and some people only the compromise side…but as a whole it has both.
These are my observations and viewpoint 🙂

Noor… this is serious matter! 😛

Your answer is detailed now i have another question…why exactly do we love 🙂
tough one right 🙂
December 21, 2008 at 10:36 pm
Why…I think whatever we lack in our life we want the other person to fill that gap…be it companionship, money, some kind of insecurity etc etc. When we think that someone is able to fulfill those needs, we tell people ‘ I am in love’ :-)..not knowing what exactly is the reason behind it or what aspects of our needs /wants the other person fulfills. I think it is all about the image we make in our mind…we see what we want to see not what is reality. 🙂
