kahāñ to tai thā charāġhāñ har ek ghar ke liye
kahāñ charāġh mayassar nahīñ shahar ke liye
yahāñ daraḳhtoñ ke saa.e meñ dhuup lagtī hai
chaleñ yahāñ se chaleñ aur umr bhar ke liye
na ho qamīz to paañv se peT Dhak leñge
ye log kitne munāsib haiñ is safar ke liye
ḳhudā nahīñ na sahī aadmī kā ḳhvāb sahī
koī hasīn nazārā to hai nazar ke liye
vo mutma.in haiñ ki patthar pighal nahīñ saktā
maiñ be-qarār huuñ āvāz meñ asar ke liye
tirā nizām hai sil de zabān-e-shā.er ko
ye ehtiyāt zarūrī hai is bahar ke liye
ji.eñ to apne baġhaicha meñ gul-muhar ke tale
mareñ to ġhair kī galiyoñ meñ gul-muhar ke liye
==================
maiñ jise oḌhtā bichhātā huuñ
vo ġhazal aap ko sunātā huuñ
ek jañgal hai terī āñkhoñ meñ
maiñ jahāñ raah bhuul jaatā huuñ
tū kisī rail sī guzartī hai
maiñ kisī pul sā thartharātā huuñ
har taraf e'tirāz hotā hai
maiñ agar raushnī meñ aatā huuñ
ek baazū ukhaḌ gayā jab se
aur ziyāda vazan uThātā huuñ
maiñ tujhe bhūlne kī koshish meñ
aaj kitne qarīb paatā huuñ
kaun ye fāsla nibhā.egā
maiñ farishta huuñ sach batātā huuñ
===============
ye raushnī hai haqīqat meñ, ek chhal logo
ki jaise jal meñ jhalaktā huā mahal logo
daraḳht haiñ, to parinde nazar nahīñ aate
vo mustahiq haiñ vahī haq se, be-daḳhal logo
vo ghar meñ mez pe kuhnī Tikā.e baiThay haiñ
thamī huī hai vahīñ umr āj-kal logo
kisī bhī qaum kī tārīḳh ke ujāle meñ
tumhāre din haiñ, kisī raat kī naqal logo
tamām raat rahā mahv-e-ḳhvāb dīvāna
kisī kī niiñd meñ, gaḌtā rahā ḳhalal logo
zarūr vo bhī, isī rāste se guzre haiñ
har aadmī mujhe lagtā hai, ham-shakal logo
dikhe jo, paaoñ ke taaza nishān sahrā meñ
to yaad aa.e haiñ tālāb ke, kañval logo
vay kah rahe haiñ ġhazal-go nahīñ rahe shā.er
maiñ sun rahā huuñ har ik samt se, ġhazal logo
==========
mat kaho, ākāsh meñ kohrā ghanā hai
ye kisī kī vyakti-gat ālochnā hai
sūry ham ne bhī nahīñ dekhā subh se
kyā karoge sūry kā, kyā dekhnā hai
is saḌak par, is qadar kīchaḌ bichhī hai
har kisī kā paañv, ghuTnoñ tak sana hai
paksh-o-pratī-paksh, sansad meñ mukhar haiñ
baat itnī hai ki, koī pul banā hai
rakt varshoñ se, nasoñ meñ khaultā hai
aap kahte haiñ, kshanik uttejanā hai
ho ga.ī har ghaaT par, puurī vyavasthā
shauq se Duube, jise bhī Dūbnā hai
===================
nazar-navāz nazāra, badal na jaa.e kahīñ
zarā sī baat hai, muñh se nikal na jaa.e kahīñ
vo dekhte haiñ, to lagtā hai niiv hiltī hai
mire bayān ko, bandish nigal na jaa.e kahīñ
yuuñ mujh ko, ḳhud pe bahut e'tibār hai lekin
ye barf aañch ke aage, pighal na jaa.e kahīñ
chale havā to, kivāḌoñ ko band kar lenā
ye garm raakh, sharāroñ meñ Dhal na jaa.e kahīñ
tamām raat, tire mai-kade meñ mai pī hai
tamām umr, nashe meñ nikal na jaa.e kahīñ
kabhī, machān pe chaḌhne kī aarzū ubhrī
kabhī ye Dar kay, ye sīḌhī phisal na jaa.e kahīñ
ye log homo-havan meñ yaqīn rakhte haiñ
chalo yahāñ se chaleñ, haath jal na jaa.e kahīñ
===========
ye saarā jism jhuk kar, bojh se dohrā huā hogā
maiñ sajde meñ nahīñ thā, aap ko dhokā huā hogā
yahāñ tak aate aate, suukh jaatī hai ka.ī nadiyāñ
mujhe ma.alūm hai, paanī kahāñ Thahrā huā hogā
ġhazab ye hai kī, apnī maut kī aahaT nahīñ sunte
vo sab ke sab pareshāñ haiñ, vahāñ par kyā huā hogā
tumhāre shahr meñ, ye shor sun sun kar to lagtā hai
ki insānoñ ke jañgal meñ, koī hāñkā huā hogā
ka.ī faaqe bitā kar mar gayā jo, us ke baare meñ
vo sab kahte haiñ, ab aisā nahīñ, aisā huā hogā
yahāñ to sirf, gūñge aur bahre log baste haiñ
ḳhudā jaane yahāñ par, kis tarah jalsa huā hogā
chalo ab yādgāroñ kī, añdherī koTharī kholeñ
kam-az-kam ek vo chehrā to, pahchānā huā hogā
ye zabāñ ham se, sī nahīñ jaatī
zindagī hai ki, jī nahīñ jaatī
in fasīloñ meñ, vo darāḌeñ haiñ
jin meñ bas kar, namī nahīñ jaatī
dekhiye us taraf ujālā hai
jis taraf raushnī, nahīñ jaatī
shaam kuchh peḌ, gir ga.e varna
baam tak chāñdnī, nahīñ jaatī
ek aadat sī, ban ga.ī hai tū
aur aadat kabhī, nahīñ jaatī
mai-kasho, mai zarūrī hai lekin
itnī kaḌvī, ki pī nahīñ jaatī
mujh ko Esā banā diyā tum ne
ab shikāyat bhī, kī nahīñ jaatī
==============
============
chāñdnī chhat pe, chal rahī hogī
ab akelī Tahal rahī hogī
phir mirā zikr aa gayā hogā
barf sī vo pighal rahī hogī
kal kā sapnā bahut suhānā thā
ye udāsī na kal rahī hogī
sochtā huuñ ki band kamre meñ
ek sham.a sī jal rahī hogī
shahr kī bhīḌ-bhāḌ se bach kar
tū galī se nikal rahī hogī
aaj buniyād thartharātī hai
vo duā phūl-phal rahī hogī
tere gahnoñ sī khankhanātī thī
bājre kī fasal rahī hogī
jin havāoñ ne tujh ko dulrāyā
un meñ merī ġhazal rahī hogī
============
is rāste ke naam likho, ek shaam aur
yā is meñ raushnī kā karo, intizām aur
āñdhī meñ sirf, ham hī ukhaḌ kar nahīñ gire
ham se juḌā huā thā koī, ek naam aur
marghaT meñ bhiiḌ hai, yā mazāroñ pe bhiiḌ hai
ab gul khilā rahā hai, tumhārā nizām aur
ghuTnoñ pe rakh ke haath, khaḌe the namāz meñ
aa jā rahe the log zehan meñ, tamām aur
ham ne bhī pahlī baar chakhī, to burī lagī
kaḌvī tumheñ lagegī, magar ek jaam aur
hairāñ the apne aks pe, ghar ke tamām log
shīsha chaTaḳh gayā to, huā ek kaam aur
un kā kahīñ jahāñ meñ, Thikānā nahīñ rahā
ham ko to mil gayā hai, adab meñ maqām aur
is nadī kī dhaar meñ, ThanDī havā aatī to hai
naav jarjar hī sahī, lahroñ se Takrātī to hai
ek chingārī kahīñ se DhūñDh laao dosto
is diye meñ tel se bhīgī huī baatī to hai
ek khanDar ke hridai sī, ek jañglī phuul sī
aadmī kī piir gūñgī hī sahī, gaatī to hai
ek chādar sāñjh ne, saare nagar par Daal dī
ye añdhere kī saḌak, us bhor tak jaatī to hai
nirvachan maidān meñ, teTī huī hai jo nadī
pattharoñ se oT meñ, jo jā ke batiyāti to hai
dukh nahīñ koī, ki ab uplabdhiyoñ ke naam par
aur kuchh ho yā na ho, ākāsh sī chhātī to hai
