1st May Labour Day Poetry in Urdu and Hindi

جن کی منزلرہتی ہمیشہ دور ہے

جن کے سپنے رہتے ہمیشہ چور چور ہیں

وہ اور کوئی نہیں صاحب
لوگوں کے شوق پورےکرنے والا ایک مزدورہے

 जिनकी मंजिल रहती हमेशा दूर है,
जिनके सपने रहते हमेशा चूर-चूर है,

वो और कोई नहीं साहब,
लोगों के शौक पूरे करने वाला एक मजदूर है।

Those whose destination is always far away,
Whose dreams are always shattered,

They are none other than the workers,
Who fulfill the desires of people.

Happy Labour Day!

امیری کی اکثر امیر اپنی سکون کو کھوتے ہیں
مزدور کھاکر سوکھی روٹی بڑے آرام سے سوتے ہیں

अमीरी में अक्सर अमीर अपनी सुकून को खोता है,
मजदूर खाकर सूखी रोटी बड़े आराम से सोता है,

Happy Labour Day!

In richness, the rich often lose their peace,
The worker, after eating dry bread, sleeps comfortably.

nnwwar Ranaزدور کا ن منایاجائیگا جائےگا

سو جاتے ہیں فٹ پاتھ پہ اخبار بچھا کر
مزدور کبھی نیند کی گولی نہیں کھاتے
منور رانا

"They sleep on the footpath, spreading newspapers as a bed,
Laborers never have the luxury of sleeping pills.
Munawwar Rana

सो जाते हैं फट पथ पर अखबार बिछा कर,
मज़दूर कभी नींद की गोली नहीं खाते।
मनूर राणा

میرے دیس میں کل مزدور کا ن منایاجائیگا

जिसके नाम पर छटी होगी, खुद वह काम पर जाएगा
मेरे देश में कल मज़दूर दिवस मानाया जाएगा शान से।

فرشتے آ کر ان کے جسم پر خوشبو لگاتے ہیں
 وہ بچے ریل کے ڈبوں میں جو جھاڑو لگاتے ہیں منور رانا

फरिश्ते आकर उनके शरीर पर खुशबू छोड़ जाते हैं,
वे बच्चे रेल के बोगियों में जो झाड़ू लगाते हैं।
 मनूर राणा

The angels come and sprinkle fragrance on their bodies,
Those children who sweep in the railway wagons.

 تو قادر و عادل ہے مگر تیرے جہاں میں
ہیں تلخ بہت بندۂ مزدور کے اوقات
علامہ اقبال

 You are omnipotent and just, but in your world,
The times of the downtrodden workers are very bitter.

It expresses the sentiment that despite the belief in an all-powerful and just God, the harsh reality of the conditions faced by the working class suggests a failure in justice and fairness. The phrase "band-e-mazdoor" refers to the oppressed or downtrodden workers, who are facing difficult times, indicating the challenges of poverty, exploitation, and inequality in society. The couplet is a poignant reminder of the importance of addressing these issues and striving for greater social justice and equality.
