the sab ke hath mein KHanjar sawal kya karta
Interesting Fact
(On the backdrop of the 2002 Gujarat tragedy)
the sab ke haath meñ ḳhanjar savāl kyā kartā
maiñ be-gunāhī kā apnī malāl kyā kartā
usī ke ek ishāre pe qatl-e-ām huā
amīr-e-shahr se maiñ arz-e-hāl kiyā kartā
maiñ qātiloñ kī nigāhoñ se bach ke bhaag aayā
ki mere saath the mere ayaal kyā kartā
dharam ke naam par insāniyat kī nasl-kushī
zamāna aisī bhī qaa.em misāl kyā kartā
jale makān jale jism jal-bujhā sab kuchh
vo is se baḌh ke hameñ pā.emāl kyā kartā
baTe hue haiñ hamī apne apne ḳhānoñ meñ
hamārā varna koī aisā haal kyā kartā
the sab ke hath mein KHanjar sawal kya karta
main be-gunahi ka apni malal kya karta
usi ke ek ishaare pe qatl-e-am hua
amir-e-shahr se main arz-e-haal kiya karta
main qatilon ki nigahon se bach ke bhag aaya
ki mere sath the mere ayal kya karta
dharam ke nam par insaniyat ki nasl-kushi
zamana aisi bhi qaem misal kya karta
jale makan jale jism jal-bujha sab kuchh
wo is se baDh ke hamein paemal kya karta
baTe hue hain hami apne apne KHanon mein
hamara warna koi aisa haal kya karta
