Mohammad Ali Wafa

 

 

     Mohammad Ali Wafa is a well known Poet from Hyderabad. We got an opportunity to interview him over the telephone so the interview is shorter than what we would have liked it to be .

      Mohd Ali Wafa started shairi in 1972 .He was here in Dubai also for a few years in the beginning. His first kalaam was in the praise of Imam-e- Zamana and is as follows

 " ISHQE HUJJAT BANA INTEZAR
..JAAN -E- ULFAT BANA INTEZAAR
..KIS QAYAMAT KA WADA KIYA
..KYA QAYAMAT BANA INTEZAAR ...."

  A number of cassettes of his kalaam have been released and he has visited many places like, many cities of India , Oman , Bahrain , Saudi Arabia , Pakistan , Dubai , and Kuwait .We are all  awaiting the release of his book which is getting published next year (Inshallah). He recites noha's and marsiya's as well .

  Both his parents are alive ( Mashallah ) and at present he is in Kuwait along with his two daughters and wife. When we asked him if he would like to give a message to everyone he requested every one to recite Surah -E-Fatiha for the marhoomeen .

Some of his popular ashhar are

Dono ki nighaon me furkhat ke gile honge
Hutoan pe tabassum ke kuch phool khile honge
Kabe se koi puche us wasle ke manzar ko
Jab noor ke do tukde aaps me mile honge
 
 
Kya jaani kya dushmane Hyder ko hua hai
Gungon se rahe haq ka patha puch raha hai
Aye gardish-e-dauran tujhe kuch is ka pata hai
Hamraha mere Fatima Zahra ki dua hai

His two geets which are popular are

Aagaye mawla aagaye 
Aagaye mawla aagaye 
 
Gagan ka tara zameen pe utra dukh ke andhere door hua
Abu Jahal aur Abu Lahab ke sapne chakna choor hua
Aye Nabi daman pehlaye, Rahmat ke baadal lehraye
Jhoom ke ayi bahaar, Aagaye mawla aagaye
 

The other geet is

Mawla Ali Ali, Mawla Ali Ali,
Deen ka Daata Jaghat ka maalik sub ka palan haar
Mawla Ali Ali,Mawla Ali Ali,

And many more
