Do you write shayari and want people to read it? On Urdu Wali Poetry you can post your shayari online for free. Create an account, write your poetry in the form, choose a category and tap Publish. Your poem is checked and usually goes live within 24 hours, with your name on it.
This guide shows every step with pictures: how to make an account, how to write a two line sher or a full ghazal, the posting rules, what happens after you publish, and how to build a poet profile that readers remember.
What You Need Before You Start
You only need three things:
- A phone or computer with internet.
- A Google account or an email address.
- Your own poetry. It can be a two line sher, a ghazal, a nazm, a qita or a short quote (iqtibas).
Posting is completely free. There is no fee, now or later.
Step 1: Create a Free Account
Open the Login page and choose one of two ways:
- Continue with Google: one tap, no password to remember.
- Naya Account (نیا اکاؤنٹ): write your name, a username in English letters, your email and a password of at least 8 characters.
Use your real name or your pen name (takhallus) in simple letters, for example “Ali Raza” or “علی رضا”. This name appears on every poem you post. Each person should make only one account.
Step 2: Choose the Type of Poetry
At the top of the Post Shayari form, choose what you are posting:
- Do Line (دو لائن): one sher, exactly two misre.
- Ghazal (غزل): several shers with the same radeef and qafia.
- Nazm (نظم): a poem on one theme.
- Qita (قطعہ): four lines that complete one thought.
- Iqtibas (اقتباس): a short prose quote or saying.
Choosing the right type helps readers find your poetry on the right page, for example the Two Lines page.
Step 3: Write Your Shayari the Right Way
Write your poetry in the big box called Shayari (شاعری). Follow these simple rules so it looks neat on every phone:
- Write every misra on a new line.
- In a ghazal, leave one empty line after each sher.
- A Do Line post must have exactly two misre.
- Write in Urdu script if you can. If you type in Roman Urdu, use our free Roman Urdu to Urdu converter first and paste the Urdu text here.
- Keep it under 6,000 characters.
Optional extras:
- Title (عنوان): for a ghazal, nazm or qita you can add a short title.
- Hindi / Roman: open “हिंदी / Roman شامل کریں” to add the same poetry in Hindi or Roman Urdu, so more readers can enjoy it.
- Your voice: upload a recording of you reading the poem (MP3 or M4A).
- Picture: add an image if it fits your poem.
Step 4: Add the Category and Poet Name, Then Publish
- Category (زمرہ): choose the mood or topic of your poem, for example Mohabbat (محبت). This puts your poem on the right category page.
- Poet (شاعر): leave this empty if the poetry is yours. Fill it only when you are sharing a classical poet’s verse, for example مرزا غالب.
- Preview: look at the Preview card below the form. It shows exactly how your post will look.
- When everything looks right, tap Publish (شائع کریں).
What Happens After You Publish
Your poem first goes to review. This is what happens next:
- Automatic check: our system compares the poem with famous poetry and with text already on the internet, to catch copied work.
- Human review: I read new poems myself and approve them, usually within 24 hours and often sooner.
- Approved: you get an email with the link to your poem and a WhatsApp share link. The poem appears on your profile and on the site.
- Not approved: in most cases you get an email that explains the reason, so you can fix it and post again.
You can see all your posts under My Account, in the “Meri Shayari” (میری شاعری) tab. If you edit a published poem, it is reviewed again before the change goes live.
Posting Rules: What Is Allowed and What Is Not
These rules protect every poet on the site, including you.
Allowed:
- Your own poetry, written by you.
- Verse of classical poets such as Mirza Ghalib, Mir Taqi Mir or Allama Iqbal, only with the poet’s name in the Poet field. Such posts are reviewed by hand.
- Poetry you have already shared on your own Facebook, Instagram or TikTok.
Not allowed:
- Another person’s poetry under your name.
- Poetry of modern poets such as Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Ahmed Faraz, Jaun Elia or Parveen Shakir, even with their name. Their work is protected by copyright.
- Text copied from other websites.
- Website links, phone numbers or advertising inside a poem.
- Hateful, abusive or adult content.
To keep the site clean, you can post up to 5 poems a day. If you post too many in one hour, the form asks you to wait a little.
Complete Your Poet Profile
Your profile is the first thing readers see when they open your poems. Go to My Account, open the Profile (پروفائل) tab and fill in:
- Profile photo: a clear photo of yourself, or your poetry logo.
- Cover photo: a calm background, a book or a landscape.
- Name (نام): your real name or pen name in plain letters.

- Social media (سوشل میڈیا): the full link of your Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok or X page, so readers can follow you.
Tap Save (محفوظ کریں) at the end. Please avoid fancy styled letters, emoji or numbers in your name, because they do not display well on the site or in Google.
