At English Shayari, we consider poetry the language of the soul-- transcending culture, age, and background. We created this platform for a single purpose: to allow the timeless art of Shayari to exist in the world of English so that emotions can flow freely towards the hearts of humans everywhere.
We are not a website. We are a group of poetry enthusiasts, creative thinkers and emotionally intuitive people who realise the importance of words. Shayari is not just a style of writing; it is a style of feeling and expressing feelings richly and beautifully. Shayari is traditionally rooted in Urdu and Hindi; however, we wanted to create a place for readers who think and feel in English while yearning for the lyrical, emotive way of Shayari.
Today, we're proud to be one of the largest platforms dedicated to English Shayari, with thousands of poems and hundreds of featured poets. Our mission remains the same: to make poetry accessible, enjoyable, and relevant to modern readers.
We created English Shayari because we felt Shayari in spirit, but people who are interested in Shayari had difficulty accessing it because of the language. This enabled us to create a platform/website that combines the poetic and expressive qualities of Shayari with English.
We started small with a few passionate verses, and before we knew it. People started reading our work because it spoke to people as readers rather than just writers. They needed to feel something, and we believe they found truth, solace and beauty in poetic expression.
Many sites provide quotes and poetry; however, English Shayari focuses on one and only thing: emotion through elegant verse. Every piece we create intends to elicit a feeling, whether that be love, sorrow, nostalgia, or hope. We also put a lot of effort into creating original Shayari that is simple to read yet emotionally rich.
We do not copy in other languages or translate moments of Shayari. We create original pieces with stay true to the poetic tradition while speaking directly to the emotions of today's poets and readers in a modern way.
Who finds connection through our poetry
Our readership consists of many different types of people: young people exploring their first loves, contemplative readers seeking inspiration, people processing a broken heart, and poets simply enjoying the art. What all of our readers have in common is their desire to connect with something more profound from reading.
Our vision for the future of English Shayari
As we continue to grow, we want to cultivate a community that embraces poetry and self-expression. We're hoping to introduce new writers, accept submissions, host contests, and introduce additional themes and categories.
Whether you're here to find the perfect verse to complement your mood or to simply get lost in thoughtful reading, we appreciate your presence.
Thank you for being part of English Shayari, where feelings are always appreciated, and words are never disregarded.
