bus ka safar

MORE BYSyed Mohammad Jafri

    un se pūchhtā huuñ maiñ safar karte haiñ jo bus meñ

    ki de dete ho apnī zindagī kyuuñ ġhair ke bas meñ

    ye bus vo hai ki bas ho jaa.e jab motor to bantī hai

    saḌak par ruuTh jaa.e to baḌī mushkil se mantī hai

    ye akasr baiThne vāloñ ke dhakkoñ se khisaktī hai

    kabhī kashtī meñ dariyā hai kabhī dariyā meñ kashtī hai

    safar karte haiñ is meñ jab barātī aur dulhan dūlhā

    to ban jaatī hai motor jā.idād-e-ġhair-manqūla

    aur is ke ba.ad agar tārīk hai shab duur manzil hai

    to karte haiñ tavāf is vo majnūñ jin mahmil hai

    cleaner se yahī kahtā hai shofer ho ke bechārā

    ''ki kas nakashūd-o-nakashāyad ba-hikmat iiñ muamma raa''

    agar us vaqt meñ sardī bhī lag jaa.e to kyā ġham hai

    ''ye fitna aadmī ḳhāna-vīrānī ko kyā kam hai''

    jo ruk jaa.e ravāñ kyuuñ ho jo baḌhiyā hai javāñ kyuuñ ho

    ''huī ye dost jin dushman un āsmāñ kyuuñ ho''

    barātī khīñchte ye jā.idād aate haiñ shahroñ meñ

    jo rasta chand ghaḌiyoñ hai vo kaTtā hai pahroñ meñ

    zarā se ek pañkchar se bigaḌtā hai siñghār is

    havā par jis hastī ho bhalā kyā e'tibār us

    ġhubār aur gard aur tel ḳhazīna hai

    ye motor-car aur ''gaDDe'' aulād-e-narīna hai

    milī gaDDe se ra.anā.ī o zebā.ī virāsat meñ

    ḳhar-e-dajjāl se miltī hai sūrat meñ malāhat meñ

    samāte haiñ phir us meñ Thas ke yuuñ be-lutf-o-āsā.ish

    nahīñ rahtī hai nāloñ ke nikalne bhī gunjā.ish

    basoñ chhat pe lad kar duudh ke bartan jo aate haiñ

    saroñ par shiir bārān-e-rahmat vo girāte haiñ

    vo nādāñ haiñ jo is bārish pe naak aur bhauñ chaḌhāte haiñ

    sile meñ saḳht-jānī ke ye jū-e-shīr paate haiñ

    paḌā hogā basoñ meñ aap ko aisoñ se bhī paalā

    uThī khujlī to apne saath sāthī ko khujā Daalā

    un hi se puchhta hun main safar karte hain jo bus mein

    ki de dete ho apni zindagi kyun ghair ke bas mein

    ye bus wo hai ki bas ho jae jab motor to banti hai

    saDak par ruTh jae to baDi mushkil se manti hai

    ye akasr baiThne walon ke dhakkon se khisakti hai

    kabhi kashti mein dariya hai kabhi dariya mein kashti hai

    safar karte hain is mein jab baraati aur dulhan dulha

    to ban jati hai motor jaidad-e-ghair-manqula

    aur is ke baad agar tarik hai shab dur manzil hai

    to karte hain tawaf is ka wo majnun jin ki mahmil hai

    cleaner se yahi kahta hai shofer ho ke bechaara

    ki kas nakashud-o-nakashayad ba-hikmat in muamma ra

    agar us waqt mein sardi bhi lag jae to kya gham hai

    ye fitna aadmi ki KHana-virani ko kya kam hai

    jo ruk jae rawan kyun ho jo baDhiya hai jawan kyun ho

    hui ye dost jin ki dushman un ka aasman kyun ho

    baraati khinchte ye jaidad aate hain shahron mein

    jo rasta chand ghaDiyon ka hai wo kaTta hai pahron mein

    zara se ek pankchar se bigaDta hai singhaar is ka

    hawa par jis ki hasti ho bhala kya e'tibar us ka

    ghubar aur gard ka aur tel ki bu ka KHazina hai

    ye motor-car aur gaDDe ki aulad-e-narina hai

    mili gaDDe se ranai o zebai wirasat mein

    KHar-e-dajjal se milti hai surat mein malahat mein

    samate hain phir us mein Thas ke yun be-lutf-o-asaish

    nahin rahti hai nalon ke nikalne ki bhi gunjaish

    bason ki chhat pe lad kar dudh ke bartan jo aate hain

    saron par shir ka baran-e-rahmat wo giraate hain

    wo nadan hain jo is barish pe nak aur bhaun chaDhate hain

    sile mein saKHt-jaani ke ye ju-e-shir pate hain

    paDa hoga bason mein aap ko aison se bhi pala

    uThi khujli to apne sath sathi ko khuja Dala
