6 Urdu ash'ar / shaayari (shers, couplets) containing the word:
jism
body
1 / 6: jism
ho ruuh ke taain
jism se kis tarah mohabbat?
taair ko qafas se bhi
kahin ho hai mohabbat?
can the spirit truly
fall in love with the body?
can a bird ever feel
love for its own prison?

2 / 6: jism
hijaab karne ki bandish
mujhe gawaara naheen
ki mera jism koyi
maal-e-zar tumhaara naheen
i reject the restriction
to wear a veil
my body is not a treasure of gold
for you to claim

3 / 6: jism
ek do zakhm nahin
jism hai saara chhalni
dard bechaara pareshaan hai
kahaan se nikle
not just a wound or two
the whole body is torn
poor pain is troubled
as to where to emerge from

4 / 6: jism
woh meri ruuh ki uljhan ka
sabab jaanta hai
jism ki pyaas bujhaane
pe bhi raazi nikla
he knew the reasons of
my soul's turmoil
but he was content with
quenching his body's thirst

5 / 6: jism
main apne jism ke andar
na dafn ho jaaun
mujhe wajuud ke girte hue
makaan se nikaal
let me not be buried
within my own body
free me from this
crumbling house of existence

6 / 6: jism
ye roshni tere kamre
mein khud nahi aayi
shama ka jism pighalne
ke baad aayi
this light hasn’t come into
your room all by itself
it has come after burning
the body of a candle
