Though the evening has passed, its echoes still resonate in our hearts.
The Shaam-e-Sukhan held on 30th August at Riphah International University, Sahiwal, was a soul-stirring celebration of literature, poetry, and cultural expression. This enchanting evening brought together a diverse gathering of students, faculty members, and guests who share a deep love for the written and spoken word.
The event unfolded like a beautifully woven tapestry — each performance adding color, depth, and warmth to the night. Renowned and emerging voices graced the stage, presenting verses that touched on themes of love, humanity, spirituality, and the beauty of everyday life. Their heartfelt recitations transported the audience into a world where emotions took center stage, and every word carried the weight of passion and sincerity.
The serene ambiance, enriched by soulful expressions and artistic energy, created a space for reflection and connection. Listeners were seen nodding along with moving couplets, smiling at witty verses, and falling silent in moments of profound depth — proving once again how poetry has the power to unite hearts and transcend boundaries.
The audience was not just passive; they became part of the experience. The shared laughter, thoughtful silences, and resounding applause turned the gathering into a vibrant dialogue between the performers and the listeners. The magical synergy of voices and emotions reminded us of the timeless role of poetry in shaping minds, nurturing creativity, and preserving culture.
Shaam-e-Sukhan was more than an event — it was a cultural milestone for Riphah Sahiwal. It rekindled appreciation for Urdu literature and showcased the immense talent within our community. Most importantly, it left behind a legacy of inspiration, encouraging students and participants to carry forward the tradition of literary expression.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the organizers, performers, participants, and every individual who contributed to making this evening extraordinary. Together, you turned words into memories, and memories into a treasure we will cherish forever.
