MORE BYSagheer Malal

    vo haqīqat meñ ek lamha thā

    jis daurān ye zamāna thā

    merī nazroñ se gir paḌī hai zamīñ

    kyuuñ bulandī ne is ko dekhā thā

    kaisī paivand-kār hai fitrat

    muntashir ho ke bhī maiñ yakjā thā

    raushnī hai kisī ke hone se

    varna buniyād to añdherā thā

    jab bhī dekhā nayā lagā mujh ko

    kyā tamāshā jahān-e-kohna thā

    us ne mahdūd kar diyā ham ko

    koī ham se yahāñ ziyāda thā

    jab ki sūraj thā pālne vaalā

    chāñd se kyā lahū rishta thā

    mar gayā jo bhī us ke baare meñ

    dhyān paḌtā nahīñ ki zinda thā

    yahīñ paidā yahīñ javān huā

    us ke lab par kahāñ qissa thā

    koī gunjān thā koī vīrān

    koī jangal kisī meñ sahrā thā

    'umr saarī vo niiñd meñ bolā

    chand lamhoñ ko koī jaagā thā

    kahīñ jaane sab ne bāteñ kiiñ

    kaise aate haiñ kaun bolā thā

    saarī uljhan usī se paidā huī

    vo jo vāhid hai be-tahāshā thā

    dauḌte phir rahe the saare log

    jab ki un ko yahīñ pe rahnā thā

    tujh ko laanā hisār meñ apne

    merā adnā ik karishma thā

    farq gahrā.ī aur pastī meñ

    kisī bulandī se dekh paayā thā

    us tafsīl meñ thā sargardāñ

    zehn meñ muḳhtasar ḳhāka thā

    paas aa kar use huā mā'lūm

    maiñ akelā nahīñ thā tanhā thā

    kitne fīsad the jāgne vaale

    kitne logoñ ko hosh aayā thā

    kis ko ibnus-sabīl kahte 'malāl'

    na.e rastoñ kaun beTā thā

    wo haqiqat mein ek lamha tha

    jis ka dauran ye zamana tha

    meri nazron se gir paDi hai zamin

    kyun bulandi ne is ko dekha tha

    kaisi paiwand-kar hai fitrat

    muntashir ho ke bhi main yakja tha

    raushni hai kisi ke hone se

    warna buniyaad to andhera tha

    jab bhi dekha naya laga mujh ko

    kya tamasha jahan-e-kohna tha

    us ne mahdud kar diya hum ko

    koi hum se yahan ziyaada tha

    jab ki suraj tha palne wala

    chand se kya lahu ka rishta tha

    mar gaya jo bhi us ke bare mein

    dhyan paDta nahin ki zinda tha

    yahin paida yahin jawan hua

    us ke lab par kahan ka qissa tha

    koi gunjaan tha koi viran

    koi jangal kisi mein sahra tha

    'umr sari wo nind mein bola

    chand lamhon ko koi jaga tha

    kahin jaane ki sab ne baaten kin

    kaise aate hain kaun bola tha

    sari uljhan usi se paida hui

    wo jo wahid hai be-tahasha tha

    dauDte phir rahe the sare log

    jab ki un ko yahin pe rahna tha

    tujh ko lana hisar mein apne

    mera adna sa ek karishma tha

    farq gahrai aur pasti mein

    kisi bulandi se dekh paya tha

    us ki tafsil mein tha sargardan

    zehn mein muKHtasar sa KHaka tha

    pas aa kar use hua ma'lum

    main akela nahin tha tanha tha

    kitne fisad the jagne wale

    kitne logon ko hosh aaya tha

    kis ko ibnus-sabil kahte 'malal'

    nae raston ka kaun beTa tha
