    ai hasan kūza-gar

    ne jaanā ki maiñ

    jism-o-jāñ ke ta.alluq raushan guzargāh se

    ik jahāñ safar jhel kar us

    rifāqat dahlīz tak aa.ī huuñ

    ai hasan kaash jaan saktā

    ki is sahn ḳhāna se dahlīz tak ke safar meñ

    jahāñ zaad ko kyuuñ zamāne lage haiñ

    hasan is safar meñ jahāñ zaad ko

    ek ik gaam par vaqt ke tāziyāne lage haiñ

    hasan vaqt mālik bhī hai devtā bhī

    muhāfiz bhī hai aur ḳhvāja-sarā bhī

    ye dekhā hai maiñ ne

    ki jab bhī darīchoñ meñ taaza shagūfa khulā hai

    havā se vo hans kar zarā gale bhī milā hai

    to ḳhvāja-sarā nazar se kahāñ bach sakā hai

    magar dekh mujh ko ki maiñ ne yahāñ Thiik nau saal tak

    phuul kāḌhe haiñ ḳhvāboñ ke bistar pe lekin

    abhī tak koī in pe soyā nahīñ

    phuul taaza shagufta aur āzurda haiñ

    maiñ ne nau saal sūrat-garī hai tere har ik lams

    raat bhar maiñ ne āñkheñ bhigoī haiñ kūzoñ meñ.... aur sub.h dam

    halaq ko tar kiyā āñsūoñ se bahut

    ye masāfat ye nau saal be-mahābā masāfat

    tire dar ke aage mujhe khīñch laa.ī

    magar yahāñ chaak par apnī dhun meñ magan hai nigāheñ uThā

    dekh to maiñ jahāñ zaad terī tire sāmne huuñ

    magar ne sach kahā thā

    zamāna jahāñ zaad vo chaak hai

    jis pe mīna-o-jām-o-subū aur fānūs-o-gul-dāñ mānind

    bante bigaḌte haiñ insāñ

    so ab ham

    jo sadiyoñ lambī masāfat se lauTe haiñ

    to apne ranjūr kūzoñ meñ jhojhā huā hai

    ye terā qusūr aur na merī ḳhatā hai

    koī kūza-gar to hamārā bhī hogā

    so ye us hikmat

    ki us ne hameñ chaak par Dhālte vaqt

    lamhoñ pher is nazākat se rakhā

    ki ham apnī apnī jagah sirf shashdar khaḌe the

    ka.ī dast-e-chābuk ke be-jān putle

    mare aur tire darmiyāñ saj ga.e the

    so ye us hikmat

    magar vaqt is darja saffāk kyoñ hai

    ye mashshāta-e-zindagī itnī chālāk kyoñ hai

    mare aur tire darmiyāñ nau baras jis ne kar bichhā.e

    ye nau saal kis taur maiñ ne bitā.e

    ki sāhil se kashtī tak aate hue

    jaise taḳhte ke hamrāh dil Dagmagā.e

    vahī nau baras jo mire aur tire darmiyāñ

    vaqt kirchiyāñ haiñ

    zamāna bhī kaisī ajab kahkashāñ hai

    ye duniyā.e sayyārgāñ hai ki jis meñ hazāroñ kavākib

    musalsal kisī chaak par ghūmte haiñ

    ye ajsām ke gird ajsām raqs zindagī hai mirī jaañ

    mirī jaan chaak ke saath miTTī ke rishte ko pahchāntā thā

    hasan ne miTī ke be-jān putloñ se

    taḳhlīq ke jāñ-gusil marhaloñ meñ

    sadā guftugū sau tarah guftugū

    zahānat ke putle mohabbat ke ḳhāliq faqat ye batā de

    ki tere anāsir ke ajzā-e-tarkīb meñ vāhima kaise aayā

    hasan vahāñ jhoñpaḌe meñ

    akelā gale mil ke royā thā kis se

    labīb aur aur maiñ aur haqīqat meñ koī nahīñ thā

    tarah vāhima mere lab mere gesū se lipTā rahā thā

    labīb ek saayā jise ne rog apnī jaañ banāyā

    ye saayā kahīñ gar haqīqat bhī hotā

    to āḳhir ko is haqīqat se kyoñ be-ḳhabar thā

    ki har jism ke saath ik āftāb aur mahtāb lāzim

    ye taslīs qaa.em hai qaa.em rahegī

    hasan meñ tire sāmne ā.īna thī

    tire hijr aur vasl ā.īna

    inhimāk o ta.alluq miTTī se gūñdhe hue jism ko

    terī āñkhoñ hiddat ne chamkāyā thā

    terī ḳhalvat hairat ne vo rañg o roġhan kiye the

    ki ā.īne shashdar khaḌe rah ga.e the

    magar terī ḳhalvat hairat meñ vahshat jo shā.iba thā

    nigāhoñ se merī kahāñ chhup sakā thā

    mare aur tire darmiyāñ vasl har ghaḌī meñ

    na jaane kahāñ se vahī soḳhta baḳht terī

    ki jo jāñ-fishānī ke shāloñ se dahke hue

    zindagī ke abad tāb-e-tannūr par

    ungliyāñ tere bachchoñ thāme khaḌī

    bhuuk se barsar-e-jañg thī

    jis ke nazdīk ye

    tere kuuze tire fan tirī aag sab

    merī āñkheñ mire phuul aur ḳhvāb sab

    zindagī ke abad tāb-e-tannūr ke raakh the

    terī is soḳhta baḳht ko kyā ḳhabar

    jab zamīñ apne mehvar tajdīd meñ

    harf-e-lā se guzar jā.egī

    to hazāroñ baras baad bhī

    ye azal ke gharoñdoñ miTTī meñ madfūn

    jahāñ zaad us ke liye phir janm legī

    aur nau baras raqs karte guzar jā.eñge

    terī is soḳhta baḳht ko kyā ḳhabar

    vo raat vo halab kārvāñ sirā hauz

    jis ko maiñ ne jism-o-jān ḳhushbūeñ kashīd kar ke

    qatra qatra nau baras meñ āñsuoñ se pur kiyā

    vo ek raat sirf ek raat meñ tamām ḳhushk ho gayā

    ham apne vasl tamāzatoñ meñ aise jal bujhe

    ki raakh tak nahīñ bachchī

    ye ek jaañ tishnagī

    mujhe tujhe ba-yak zamāñ bhalā kahāñ kahāñ na khīñchtī phirī

    magar ye ne kyā kahā

    ki tere jaisī aurteñ jahāñ zaad

    aisī uljhaneñ haiñ jin ko aaj tak koī nahīñ sulajh sakā

    ki auratoñ zaat hai vo tanz apne aap par

    javāb jin ham nahīñ

    to phir ye jām-o-mīnā-o-subū-o-hauz-o-rūd niil

    is zamīñ god meñ

    azal harf-gīr tābnākī ke liye

    kahīñ bhī kuchh baham nahīñ

    ai hasan chaak par se zarā apnī nazreñ haTā

    mire nau baras tak banā.e ga.e phuul to dekh le

    phuul taaza shagufta aur āzurda haiñ

    yuuñ na ho ki unheñ

    bhuuk aur muflisī ke satā.e hue

    mere bachche bhī nīlām kar aa.eñ kar kahīñ

    tere kūzoñ mānind baġhdād meñ

    ai hasan

    dāman-e-vaqt par jitne phuul aur buuTe saje haiñ

    jahāñ zaad zaḳhm poroñ ne rañg un meñ

    apne junūñ ke bhare haiñ

    ye tāvān haiñ champa.ī uñgliyoñ

    tire jām-o-mīnā pe

    jis ḳhāl-o-ḳhad nazākat parchhā.iyāñ thiiñ

    tujhe kyā ḳhabar ye kin āñkhoñ bīnā.iyāñ thiiñ

    hasan ye mohabbat

    ki jis ko tirī soḳhta baḳht gardāntī hai

    amīroñ baazī

    to mere ta.iiñ ye amīroñ baazī kahāñ

    sirf bāzīgarī thī

    mohabbat hamesha se muflis sarmāya-e-jāñ rahī hai

    yahī to vo pūñjī hai

    jis tak amīroñ ke haath ab bhī pahuñche nahīñ haiñ

    tujhe ye gumāñ thā

    ki aurat

    mohabbat baazī meñ be-jān patte sūrat

    kisī dast-e-chābuk marhūn-e-minnat

    vo is khel meñ ek mohre sūrat

    ki jab jis ne chāhā

    use ek ghar se uThā kar

    kisī dūsre ghar mālik banāyā

    ki aurat faqat ek patthar mūrat

    ye tasvīr-e-hairat yūñhī chup khaḌī hai

    yūñhī chup rahegī

    magar yuuñ nahīñ hai

    hasan ne dekhā ki maiñ

    qaid-e-auhām o band-e-rivāyāt meñ

    būḌhe attār yūsuf dukān par

    apnī āñkheñ tujhe nazr kartī rahī

    būḌhā attār vo kīmiyā-gar ki jis ne

    zamānoñ ke jañgal se

    chehroñ ke phuul aur buuTe chune

    vo mujhe aur tujhe jāntā thā magar

    maiñ ne bāzār meñ

    tujh se āñkhoñ aur dil saudā kiyā

    ai hasan mere ek ik darīche pe

    kohna rivāyāt o zālim aqā.ed jañgal ugā thā

    hasan

    kaash to merī āñkhoñ se mere darīche ko taktā

    to ye jaan saktā

    jahāñ khaḌā thā vahāñ ek ik darz se

    merī āñkheñ mirā jism

    chhan chhan ke kaT kaT ke girtā rahā thā

    ai hasan kuza-gar

    tu ne jaana ki main

    jism-o-jaan ke talluq ki raushan guzargah se

    ek jahan ka safar jhel kar us

    rifaqat ki dahliz tak aai hun

    ai hasan kash tu jaan sakta

    ki is sahn KHana se dahliz tak ke safar mein

    jahan zad ko kyun zamane lage hain

    hasan is safar mein jahan zad ko

    ek ek gam par waqt ke taziyane lage hain

    hasan waqt malik bhi hai dewta bhi

    muhafiz bhi hai aur KHwaja-sara bhi

    ye dekha hai main ne

    ki jab bhi darichon mein taza shagufa khula hai

    hawa se wo hans kar zara sa gale bhi mila hai

    to KHwaja-sara ki nazar se kahan bach saka hai

    magar dekh mujh ko ki main ne yahan Thik nau sal tak

    phul kaDhe hain KHwabon ke bistar pe lekin

    abhi tak koi in pe soya nahin

    phul taza shagufta aur aazurda hain

    main ne nau sal surat-gari ki hai tere har ek lams ki

    raat bhar main ne aankhen bhigoi hain kuzon mein aur subh dam

    halaq ko tar kiya aansuon se bahut

    ye masafat ye nau sal ki be-mahaba masafat

    tere dar ke aage mujhe khinch lai

    magar tu yahan chaak par apni dhun mein magan hai nigahen uTha

    dekh to main jahan zad teri tere samne hun

    magar tu ne sach hi kaha tha

    zamana jahan zad wo chaak hai

    jis pe mina-o-jam-o-subu aur fanus-o-gul-dan ki manind

    bante bigaDte hain insan

    so ab hum

    jo sadiyon ki lambi masafat se lauTe hain

    to apne ranjur kuzon mein jhojha hua hai

    ye tera qusur aur na meri KHata hai

    koi kuza-gar to hamara bhi hoga

    so ye us ki hikmat

    ki us ne hamein chaak par Dhaalte waqt

    lamhon ka pher is nazakat se rakha

    ki hum apni apni jagah sirf shashdar khaDe the

    kai dast-e-chabuk ke be-jaan putle

    mare aur tere darmiyan saj gae the

    so ye us ki hikmat

    magar waqt is darja saffak kyon hai

    ye mashshata-e-zindagi itni chaalak kyon hai

    mare aur tere darmiyan nau baras jis ne la kar bichhae

    ye nau sal kis taur main ne bitae

    ki sahil se kashti tak aate hue

    jaise taKHte ke hamrah dil Dagmagae

    wahi nau baras jo mere aur tere darmiyan

    waqt ki kirchiyan hain

    zamana bhi kaisi ajab kahkashan hai

    ye duniyae sayyargan hai ki jis mein hazaron kawakib

    musalsal kisi chaak par ghumte hain

    ye ajsam ke gird ajsam ka raqs hi zindagi hai meri jaan

    meri jaan tu chaak ke sath miTTi ke rishte ko pahchanta tha

    hasan tu ne miTi ke be-jaan putlon se

    taKHliq ke jaan-gusil marhalon mein

    sada guftugu sau tarah guftugu ki

    zahanat ke putle mohabbat ke KHaliq faqat ye bata de

    ki tere anasir ke ajza-e-tarkib mein wahima kaise aaya

    hasan tu wahan jhonpaDe mein

    akela gale mil ke roya tha kis se

    labib aur tu aur main aur haqiqat mein koi nahin tha

    tarah wahima mere lab mere gesu se lipTa raha tha

    labib ek saya jise tu ne rog apni jaan ka banaya

    ye saya kahin gar haqiqat bhi hota

    to aaKHir ko tu is haqiqat se kyon be-KHabar tha

    ki har jism ke sath ek aaftab aur mahtab lazim

    ye taslis qaem hai qaem rahegi

    hasan mein tere samne aaina thi

    tere hijr aur wasl ka aaina

    inhimak o talluq ki miTTi se gundhe hue jism ko

    teri aankhon ki hiddat ne chamkaya tha

    teri KHalwat ki hairat ne wo rang o roghan kiye the

    ki aaine shashdar khaDe rah gae the

    magar teri KHalwat ki hairat mein wahshat ka jo shaiba tha

    nigahon se meri kahan chhup saka tha

    mare aur tere darmiyan wasl ki har ghaDi mein

    na jaane kahan se wahi soKHta baKHt teri

    ki jo jaan-fishani ke shaalon se dahke hue

    zindagi ke abad tab-e-tannur par

    ungliyan tere bachchon ki thame khaDi

    bhuk se barsar-e-jang thi

    jis ke nazdik ye

    tere kuze tere fan teri aag sab

    meri aankhen mere phul aur KHwab sab

    zindagi ke abad tab-e-tannur ke rakh the

    teri is soKHta baKHt ko kya KHabar

    jab zamin apne mehwar ki tajdid mein

    harf-e-la se guzar jaegi

    to hazaron baras baad bhi

    ye azal ke gharondon ki miTTi mein madfun

    phul aur buTe ye kuze

    aur un mein unhi qaf aankhon se chhilke hue

    surKH pani ki talchhaT

    kisi kuza-gar ke jawan lams se ji uThe to

    jahan zad us ke liye phir janm legi

    aur nau baras raqs karte guzar jaenge

    teri is soKHta baKHt ko kya KHabar

    wo raat wo halab ki karwan sira ka hauz

    jis ko main ne jism-o-jaan ki KHushbuen kashid kar ke

    qatra qatra nau baras mein aansuon se pur kiya

    wo ek raat sirf ek raat mein tamam KHushk ho gaya

    hum apne wasl ki tamazaton mein aise jal bujhe

    ki rakh tak nahin bachchi

    ye ek jaan ki tishnagi

    mujhe tujhe ba-yak zaman bhala kahan kahan na khinchti phiri

    magar ye tu ne kya kaha

    ki tere jaisi aurten jahan zad

    aisi uljhanen hain jin ko aaj tak koi nahin sulajh saka

    ki auraton ki zat hai wo tanz apne aap par

    jawab jin ka hum nahin

    to phir ye jam-o-mina-o-subu-o-hauz-o-rud nil

    is zamin ki god mein

    azal ki harf-gir tabnaki ke liye

    kahin bhi kuchh baham nahin

    ai hasan chaak par se zara apni nazren haTa

    tu mere nau baras tak banae gae phul to dekh le

    phul taza shagufta aur aazurda hain

    yun na ho ki unhen

    bhuk aur muflisi ke satae hue

    mere bachche bhi nilam kar aaen ja kar kahin

    tere kuzon ki manind baghdad mein

    ai hasan

    daman-e-waqt par jitne phul aur buTe saje hain

    jahan zad ki zaKHm poron ne rang un mein

    apne junun ke bhare hain

    ye tawan hain champai ungliyon ka

    tere jam-o-mina pe

    jis KHal-o-KHad ki nazakat ki parchhaiyan thin

    tujhe kya KHabar ye kin aankhon ki binaiyan thin

    hasan ye mohabbat

    ki jis ko teri soKHta baKHt gardanti hai

    amiron ki bazi

    to mere tain ye amiron ki bazi kahan

    sirf bazigari thi

    mohabbat hamesha se muflis ka sarmaya-e-jaan rahi hai

    yahi to wo punji hai

    jis tak amiron ke hath ab bhi pahunche nahin hain

    tujhe ye guman tha

    ki aurat

    mohabbat ki bazi mein be-jaan patte ki surat

    kisi dast-e-chabuk ki marhun-e-minnat

    wo is khel mein ek mohre ki surat

    ki jab jis ne chaha

    use ek ghar se uTha kar

    kisi dusre ghar ka malik banaya

    ki aurat faqat ek patthar ki murat

    ye taswir-e-hairat yunhi chup khaDi hai

    yunhi chup rahegi

    magar yun nahin hai

    hasan tu ne dekha ki main

    qaid-e-auham o band-e-riwayat mein

    buDhe attar yusuf ki dukan par

    apni aankhen tujhe nazr karti rahi

    buDha attar wo kimiya-gar ki jis ne

    zamanon ke jangal se

    chehron ke phul aur buTe chune

    wo mujhe aur tujhe jaanta tha magar

    main ne bazar mein

    tujh se aankhon ka aur dil ka sauda kiya

    ai hasan mere ek ek dariche pe

    kohna riwayat o zalim aqaed ka jangal uga tha

    hasan

    kash to meri aankhon se mere dariche ko takta

    to ye jaan sakta

    jahan tu khaDa tha wahan ek ek darz se

    meri aankhen mera jism

    chhan chhan ke kaT kaT ke girta raha tha
