qulir-rūho min amr-e-rabbī
un logoñ se jo ye samajhte haiñ ki har baat lafz se shurūa hotī hai
maiñ aaj un ko chhoḌne aayā huuñ
Thiik us jagah pe jahāñ se koī lafz shurūa nahīñ hotā
sirf chand āñkheñ hotī haiñ in āñkhoñ āñkhoñ ko rakhne ke kai havā havā maiñ Doltī haiñ
sirf chand āñkheñ hotī haiñ āsmān ke chhoTe se TukḌe ko utaar kar der tak gūñjtī rahī
sirf chand āñkheñ hotī haiñ jo intizār kartī haiñ ki koī un meñ utre
aur in se kahe ki chalo ham tumheñ phir se peḌoñ aur parindoñ se ābād kar deñ
chalo phir se tumheñ be-laus mohabbat kī jalvateñ aur ḳhalvateñ baḳhsh de
so ye merā qissa hai ki maiñ ne utarne kī rivāyat kā baḌā ehtirām kiyā
ḳhud ko bhuul dūsroñ kā kaam kiyā
ye abhāg un kā thā ki unhoñ ne mujhe pahchānā nahīñ
maiñ koī aur raah ho letā par dil maanā nahīñ
maiñ bahut paas se guzrā thā
dil hī dil meñ jo umr bhar lahrātī hai zabān par kabhī nahīñ aatī
is mausīqī kā lams ban ke maiñ bahut paas se guzrā thā
maiñ bahut paas se guzrā thā
aur merī aamad ke arsa meñ zamīn kī āb-o-havā
nekī-o-badī ḳhūbsūrtī-o-bad-sūrtī sab se be-niyāz thī sarāpā raaz thī
aur gyaan ek jaage hue dil kā naam thā
savāloñ se be be-niyāz javāb nā-tamām thā
ḳhudā se miltī jaltī aadmī kī mohabbat
bichhḌī huī azal kī ne.amat
har-chand ki hāsil-e-abad hai
aur be-niyāz nek-o-bad hai
phir bhī nazar meñ aadmī kī auqāt
aur duniyā jo jism-o-jāñ kī had hai
aur ke haqīr rāstoñ meñ tum mujh se shā.irī kā matlab pūchhte ho
maiñ nahīñ batā saktā maiñ kyuuñ batā.ūñ maiñ nahīñ batātā
ye qissa merī dehātī āñkhoñ mere dehātī dil kā hai
jab bahut bahut ghanī raat meñ musāfir ke paañv tale rāsta nahīñ hotā
tab vo kis anokhe sitāre se rāsta pūchhtā hai
tab kaun sā ishāra musāfir ke paañv ko tārīk kar dene kī shart batātā hai
peḌ kī phalañgī par mahokhā boltā hai
paanī kī zabān jānñe vaalī TiTihrī kī choñch se din nikaltā hai
tum nahīñ batā sakte tum ne kabhī nahīñ batāyā tum kabhī nahīñ batāoge
tumhārī ābādiyāñ akaal meñ mare hue logoñ kī bad-duā.eñ haiñ
maazī haal mustaqbil tiin andhe faqīroñ kī sadā.eñ haiñ
maiñ tum meñ shāmil-e-safar huuñ magar panāh māñgtā apnī ajal ko DhūñDhtā huuñ
aur jo apnī ajal ko DhūñDhtā hai
tumhārī duniyā us kā kuchh nahīñ bigāḌ saktī
magar maiñ aise ahd-e-bā-asar meñ huuñ
ki jis kī har sadā sadā-e-be-asar hai
aur guftugū kā peḌ be-samar hai
ḳhudā se kar chuke haiñ jo kalām vo kalīm apnī bāzgasht chhoḌ ke chale ga.e
aur ḳhāk-e-bāz-gasht aaj
uḌ rahī hai iltibās meñ
aur vo ḳhāmushī thī jo mahān aatmā kā ramz thī
aur us kī aañkh sabz thī
phir bhī soch ke jī Dartā hai
phir bhī soch ke jī Dartā hai
jaane vaale aane vāloñ ko aisī hī aas bañdhāte haiñ
haath nahīñ aatī hai amar-latā
yahāñ pahuñch kar maiñ sochtā huuñ
yahāñ pahuñch kar maiñ sochtā huuñ
mujhe aañsū kis ne diye
aur kaun sā aañsū mere virsa kā bātin hai
kis se bichhaḌ kar miTTī paanī bantī hai
nadī akelī bahtī hai
duniyā chhoḌ ke kaun samundar kī tah meñ baiTh ke likhtā hai aur apnā qalam Dubotā hai
jis pul par chal ke kahne vaalā sunñe vaale tak pahuñchtā hai
vo ek aisā sach hai jise maut zindagī se chhup kar boltī hai
insānī dil kī shakl se milte-julte ḳheme ab bhī jalte haiñ
qulir-ruho min amr-e-rabbi
un logon se jo ye samajhte hain ki har baat lafz se shurua hoti hai
main aaj un ko chhoDne aaya hun
Thik us jagah pe jahan se koi lafz shurua nahin hota
sirf chand aankhen hoti hain in aankhon aankhon ko rakhne ke kai hawa hawa main Dolti hain
sirf chand aankhen hoti hain aasman ke chhoTe se TukDe ko utar kar der tak gunjti rahi
sirf chand aankhen hoti hain jo intizar karti hain ki koi un mein utre
aur in se kahe ki chalo hum tumhein phir se peDon aur parindon se aabaad kar den
chalo phir se tumhein be-laus mohabbat ki jalwaten aur KHalwaten baKHsh de
so ye mera qissa hai ki main ne utarne ki riwayat ka baDa ehtiram kiya
KHud ko bhul dusron ka kaam kiya
ye abhag un ka tha ki unhon ne mujhe pahchana nahin
main koi aur rah ho leta par dil mana nahin
main bahut pas se guzra tha
dil hi dil mein jo umr bhar lahraati hai zaban par kabhi nahin aati
is mausiqi ka lams ban ke main bahut pas se guzra tha
main bahut pas se guzra tha
aur meri aamad ke arsa mein zamin ki aab-o-hawa
neki-o-badi KHubsurti-o-bad-surti sab se be-niyaz thi sarapa raaz thi
aur gyan ek jage hue dil ka nam tha
sawalon se be be-niyaz jawab na-tamam tha
KHuda se milti jalti aadmi ki mohabbat
bichhDi hui azal ki neamat
har-chand ki hasil-e-abad hai
aur be-niyaz nek-o-bad hai
phir bhi nazar mein aadmi ki auqat
aur duniya jo jism-o-jaan ki had hai
aur ke haqir raston mein tum mujh se shairi ka matlab puchhte ho
main nahin bata sakta main kyun bataun main nahin batata
ye qissa meri dehati aankhon mere dehati dil ka hai
jab bahut bahut ghani raat mein musafir ke panw tale rasta nahin hota
tab wo kis anokhe sitare se rasta puchhta hai
tab kaun sa ishaara musafir ke panw ko tarik kar dene ki shart batata hai
peD ki phalangi par mahokha bolta hai
pani ki zaban jaanne wali TiTihri ki chonch se din nikalta hai
tum nahin bata sakte tum ne kabhi nahin bataya tum kabhi nahin bataoge
tumhaari aabaadiyan akal mein mare hue logon ki bad-duaen hain
mazi haal mustaqbil tin andhe faqiron ki sadaen hain
main tum mein shamil-e-safar hun magar panah mangta apni ajal ko DhunDhta hun
aur jo apni ajal ko DhunDhta hai
tumhaari duniya us ka kuchh nahin bigaD sakti
magar main aise ahd-e-ba-asar mein hun
ki jis ki har sada sada-e-be-asar hai
aur guftugu ka peD be-samar hai
KHuda se kar chuke hain jo kalam wo kalim apni bazgasht chhoD ke chale gae
aur KHak-e-baz-gasht aaj
uD rahi hai iltibas mein
aur wo KHamushi thi jo mahan aatma ka ramz thi
aur us ki aankh sabz thi
phir bhi soch ke ji Darta hai
phir bhi soch ke ji Darta hai
jaane wale aane walon ko aisi hi aas bandhate hain
hath nahin aati hai amar-lata
yahan pahunch kar main sochta hun
yahan pahunch kar main sochta hun
mujhe aansu kis ne diye
aur kaun sa aansu mere wirsa ka baatin hai
kis se bichhaD kar miTTi pani banti hai
nadi akeli bahti hai
duniya chhoD ke kaun samundar ki tah mein baiTh ke likhta hai aur apna qalam Dubota hai
jis pul par chal ke kahne wala sunne wale tak pahunchta hai
wo ek aisa sach hai jise maut zindagi se chhup kar bolti hai
insani dil ki shakl se milte-julte KHeme ab bhi jalte hain
