Two Punjabi poems

I am grateful to AK for sending me these lovely poems:

Kujh asraar nay meray dil vich
Jehray kadi na dassay
Jeewain pani bharya bad’l
guzar jaay bin wass’ay

Ik Kutba

Jaza, saza day vehm nay
Kujh ve karan na ditta
Zinda rehan day seham nay
Chajh naal maran na ditta

By Tariq Aziz (found in Hamzaad Da Dukh)

   ‘Amar nahi’ ki dhun hai fana baqa ka khel
   Kisi maulvi ka sabaq, hai kub se rata huwa
