Here Are Some Immaculate Hindi Poetries on Love You Just Cannot Miss!
We bring to you some talented poets reciting their beautiful Hindi poetries on falling in and out of love.

I can’t be the only one who craves for the old school romance. Sure, current hook-up culture might seem progressive in a way. And the modern-day romance has its own charm too. But nothing beats old school, right? Oh, to send long handwritten letters to your lover, confessing your feelings! Serenading them at night with delightful verses of Hindi poetries!
But in today’s world, amidst the modern era of love, people exist who want their love stories to be those tales. Goonj Chand writes a heart-warming poem on this. Simply questioning if that old school romance still exists.
Her poem “Wo 90s Wala Pyaar Aaj Bhi Hota Hai Kya?” was uploaded on G Talks on the 8th of January 2021. A time of shy laughs and giggles, shayaris and stolen glances. Her words phrased just right to make it one of the Hindi poetries that make you travel through time and feel everything she is feeling.
Dreaming about love and falling in love is like a fairytale. But, more often than not, finding your perfect match takes time. And through that journey we inevitably get our hearts broken. And we change. Our experiences and memories force us to change.
Amandeep Singh recites a very raw poem about how love changed him, broke him. “Tumhara Naam” is one of those Hindi poetries where every verse digs deeper. You start feeling the words in your heart.
Heartbreak hurts and it’s difficult to forget. Even though he might not remember all the marks on her body, but he does remember how the light fell on her face and struck his heart. He’s okay most days but hearing her name hurts. “Tumhara Naam” is a poem written by about this.

Some ‘Sher o Shayari’ for the Tender and Emotional
For the readers of Shayaris, we bring to you some young poets on Instagram worth checking out to set afire your love for Urdu poetry.

Urdu has charmed people with its beauty for ages. Even the non-speakers of the language have been familiar with the enchanting magic of its words and expressions– from Ghalib to Gulzar, everyone has read and sung their beautiful nazms and lyrics.
Reading poetry is both a shared and unique experience. They are words that enunciate feelings and are rooted in life and everything else that makes it. When you read a poem, you find your own truth in it, but also a calm comfort that tells you that you are not alone, that other people too are finding their own realities in it just as you are. And Shayaris remains an immensely popular form, for both the readers and writers of Urdu poetry, for this very reason. Its inspiration is drawn from life, love and hurt, beauty and romance, success and failures. Experiences that are universal to all, and yet unique to whoever experiences them.
So, we bring for the lovers of Shayaris, and for those who want to begin immersing themselves in it, some emerging writers to check out and follow.
Sameer Oberoi translates the complexities that burden everyday life. He writes of ‘Shor shraabe ki zindagi’, full of convoluted connections, emotions, and communications. He drops truth dipped in the lyricism that is inherent to Urdu words, words like ‘jazbaat’. Where he distills the value of words, of the heavy meaning that hides behind everything that is said or unsaid. His unsaid direction in it being– to carefully say the things you do, to carefully listen to the things you hear.


Tushar Mehrotra @doalfaaz pens down the often spoken, often felt, side of loving and losing someone. Of living with the space that is hollowed out by the lost, and with the realisation that it is never returning back. Of heartbreaks that leave a longing behind, to be loved in the way that you love another. Reminds one of Gulzar when he said, “kabhi to chaunk ke dekhe koi hamara taraf, kisi ki aankh men ham ko bhi intizar dikhe” (I wish to see someone look at me in surprise, with a longing in their eyes.)


Raghav Bhutani too writes of love, separation, and betrayal. His words flow to a beloved, and from lessons that life and love have brought upon. And he too writes in clarity the truths that sum up living. In just a few words he writes how some emotions get trapped in translations. How sometimes they don’t find the right expression and sometimes the right understanding. His words and emotions, however, do both for his audience.


Another page, @rahat.ki.yadein, dedicated to the famous lyricist Rahat Indori, captures the essence of life’s stories, in a way, explaining that they are all ultimately the influences of what the heart feels, wants, and sees. Because life is full of feelings, and these feelings don’t require a declaration in big words but are found in the little things hidden in simple actions and simple words.


The words of these poets lend voice to what a lot of people may feel but can never find the right expressions for it. Maybe that is why they have a lot of following because, at the end of the day, everybody is trying to find themselves, their experiences, and feelings in art. And that ultimately, is the purpose of any such work– amateur or not, high-brow or not– which is to make people feel things. And the popularity of these writers is proof enough that their work is serving that purpose to their audiences.

These Hindi Poetic Performances Will Put Your Emotions Into Words!
We bring you some incredible Hindi poetic performances that will phrase your unfathomable emotions into simple words!

Emotions can be overwhelming. And it is never easy to communicate them. The words you know just don’t seem enough. Not just your vocabulary, but syntax of the language seems to limit you. Today, we will introduce you to some phenomenal poets who will awe you with their charm and Hindi poetic performances.
Anubhav Agarwal
Firstly, we have an admired poet amongst the common people, Anubhav Agrawal. Handling the Instagram account @iwritewhatyoufeel, Anubhav is known for his relatable poetry. While his poetry is deep, conveying a plethora of emotions and stories, it’s easy to understand. Anubhav Agarwal uses common every-day language in his poems. However, his poetry sounds beautiful.
His poem titled, ‘Wo Badla Nahi, Bas Benaqaab Hua’ expresses the tragedy of betrayal. Surely, you must know that the pain of being betrayed by someone you trust with all your life is agonizing. In this minute-long poem, Anubhav Agarwal successfully —- the roller-coaster of emotions that one goes through during such circumstances. In fact, his poetry is tragic, hurt, inflamed, yet entrancing.
Rohit Kishor
Next, Rohit Kishor will mesmerize you with his ability of expressing complex emotions in the everyday Hindi language. On 18th March 2021, he uploaded a Hindi poetic video titled, ‘A True Relationship’ to his YouTube channel, Untold Diary.
The title does describe the poem the best. While this poem is based on the ideal relationship all hopeless romantics, chase; it isn’t unrealistic. It describes what we all should expect from a relationship, from love. Truly, the Hindi poetic performance as a whole is enchanting.

Tiny Words To Fill Your Soul: Poetry Meant Just For You
These pieces of contemporary poetry by these five talented poets can be the perfect remedy for a not so perfect day.

Poetry has, within it, the power to be reaffirming. Simple words, wrapped around one another, drawing from the other what one fails to give, poetry can, often, be what you just need. That conversation with a friend may or may not have helped, but these few beautiful words from these five talented poets definitely will. If you need a little bit of a ‘pick-me-up’, read on. After all, you are worth it.
Shefali Dang’s poetry is reminiscent of the little kindnesses you see in everyday life. Similar to the person who helps you pick up something you dropped or the stranger who, perhaps, tells you that you have your bag unzipped, her poetry is quiet and, yet, flecked with a genuine desire to help. With phrases like ‘…her soul was dipped in sunshine’, she projects a sense of inner reassurance that is sometimes lost in the maddening rush of today.


Amit Sharma, through his words, reminds you that, sometimes, it is completely okay to not feel up to it. That is what makes us who we are. Our bits of uncertainty are as important as the quiet confidence we carry with us. It is in the idea of acceptance that his poetry roots itself. Indeed, what better way to admit to our humanity than accepting our shared bouts of hesitation and uncertainty?


Have you ever found that perfect bite or that tiniest part of a song that completely changes your mood? That one whispered reassurance from a loved one, telling you that you are going to be fine? Rithvik Singh’s words have that same effect, pronounced and bound by its simplicity. Truthfully, that is all that you need sometimes. With words that imply a larger world behind them, Singh has his own way of making the important bits count. After all, we are creatures of moments.


Sanjana A. just might be the youngest one amongst the five. That has no bearing, however. It is her written spirit that tells the tale, a tale tinged by the understanding of what it truly means to love. She speaks not of love that is on digital pages, but, rather, of the one that is more important. The idea of gently being in love with yourself, building upon being patient and accepting yourself before anything else.


Harshita J.’s poetry builds on the same thought, the idea of running your hands over all the scars, emotional or otherwise, you have without flinching. Being whole does not always mean the absence of pain. Sometimes, it can just be a willingness to be kind to yourself, despite what you carry within you. With her words, ‘…don’t forget to be the sun in your own’ she touches on the idea of giving yourself the same importance that you do to others.

These Poets Are Your Perfect Introduction Into The Curious World Of Poetry
We bring you a list of talented Instagram poets, with poetry ranging from topics of passionate relationships to self-love and everything in between!

A form of artistic expression, poetry is one of the oldest forms of literature. Majorly relying on word association, imagery and the rhythmic qualities of human language, poetry has the ability to overwhelm the reader with a plethora of emotions. Poets not only get their thoughts and opinions out for criticism, but also encourage connection. The reader feels a certain sense of relief from a consuming loneliness, knowing that someone out there understands.
Poetry is a delicate literary craft. Unlike various forms of prose, poetry uses minimal words from language to convey deeper larger meanings. You see, poets’ words are their power. No one can take that from them. With their words they form intriguing combinations of phrases using figurative language, and subtle word associations.
Poets force the readers to find meaning within their own experiences. More often than not, poetry is thought-provoking and strange. In fact, every time you read it the same words offer you a new, vastly different perspective. Therefore, depending on your own experiences you unveil a deeper meaning.
List of Some Incredible Poetry by Instagram Poets
We begin the list with Vinati, handling the Instagram page @writingsofvinati. Her poems are short, yet they will overwhelm you with emotions in the best way. This particular piece is about self-love. Something that definitely must be a part of your to-do list!

With another short poetry on prioritizing yourself over others, we have Parul Nigam. She handles the Instagram page @theenchantedgirl which is filled with quotes, edits and poems. Moreover, you can read more of her work in her published book, ‘Bittersweet Memories’!

Next up, we have this beautiful poem by @desired.dreamer. This particular piece will certainly prove to be motivational in every phase of your life. Focusing on the inevitability of change, the poet, Bhupen, focuses on bringing rhythm to the poetry with words.

Simardeep Singh brings us yet another intriguing short poem in a recent post on the account, @thesolesoul. Playing with words as a form of self-expression, Simardeep reveals so much with these two sentences. If you enjoy his work, don’t forget to check out his book, ‘Petals of Moon’!

Next, with an unfeigned poem, we have Kanak Sachdeva (@kanaksachdevaa). You can feel the sincerity of the words. The author is in love – nothing less than true and passionate adoration.

Tuheena Raj, @Wordsofworth, uses her words to entrance you in a tale of passionate romance in this next poem. Using the metaphor of a dusty old book, she plays with figurative language and word association as she expresses her emotions.

We end the list with the works of Suyasha, @_thewasteland_. Her poetry, though open to interpretations, symbolizes how the poet’s lover is their home. Instead of a cabin or a cemented abode, it’s the person who provides her with the calm amidst the chaos.

Three Poetry Performances Born Out Of Powerful Creative Expression
Poetry is powerful, touching and eye-opening. When words meet emotions, rhyme and rhythm, poetry comes to life.

To be able to convert the cloud of thoughts inside our head into words and color them blue is a form of art. To pen down poetry with rhythm and rhyme balancing the emotions and satire, poetry is an art piece in every form. Poems have always been used as a way of creative expression regardless the times and situations. Whether it raises questions or confesses, touches your heart or gives a bitter taste of life’s reality on your tongue, it’s powerful and an art. We bring you three poetry performances that hit in the right places and with the motive their words carry.
Released on International Women’s day, ‘Kyun’ by Simmy raises questions. Being a woman has always been challenging – it is today as well, even after years of struggles. Once again, Simmy asks questions and raises her voice against the pre-defined sets and standards by the society for women. The video is a black and white film; the colors representing the struggles of womanhood. ‘Kyun’ is powerful, beautiful, laced with pain and the representation of a woman- strong and blunt. Watch the video to find if you could answer the questions.
Next we have Lovely Sharma’s “Zindagi”. A performance where she expresses what life is. Humans all interpret and take what life is, in their own ways. Throughout the journey that life is, living beings learn their own lessons and have their own epiphanies. Lovely narrates to the audience what life is to her and the moments of realization she had. One important element of her performance is the mention of self-love and the moment of realization when one knows how important it is to love yourself. Dressed in a beautiful white classical fit, Lovely gives a performance that will put a smile on your face. Check out the lovely performance here.
Lastly, we have Neha Thakur’s “Tum mera saath dena”. As much as the society has become open to the topic of discussing mental health, it is still a taboo. People around us have still not fully accepted the negative affects bad mental health could have on one. Neha throws light on the same and urges her loved ones to stay beside her during her hard times. Often people lose themselves to anxiety and say or do things they don’t mean to; Neha asks people close to her to understand her and wait for her. The performance is so expressive that it will leave you chill-bumped. She does a commendable job at expressing how one should understand if their significant other or anyone else around them is going through a hard time and check up on them.
