I like Urdu and Punjabi poetry a fair bit, as well as the music that is often paired with it in. Below are some diverse pieces of poetry my siblings and cousins discussed with our aunts and uncles.
ishq aap vi awalla
Ishq Aap Vi Awalla, as sung by the Chakwal Group in Coke Studio Season 5. 'Ishq aap vi awalla' is a Punjabi folk-like song about the strangeness of love. It takes the perspective of a young girl getting water from the village well. The boy she has feelings for is helping her fill her clay pot with water. Despite the fact that this poetry is not as deep as that written by the most famous Punjabi poets, it authentically presents a part of Punjabi culture to modern listeners.
