kursi

dhobī naa.ī shaiḳh vaDere kursī ke matvāle dekhe

ashrāfoñ kī baat na pūchho sab ke muñh par taale dekhe

kursī ke shaidā.ī yaaro mashriq maġhrib vaale dekhe

us kī dhun meñ jaan se jaate aksar gore kaale dekhe

kursī ko mazbūt na kahnā baat baḌī muñh chhoTā sā hai

kursī toḌ tamāshā karte aksar laḌke baale dekhe

kursī hāsil kar lenā bhī aisī-vaisī baat na samjho

kursī kī hasrat meñ jhukte baḌe baḌe jī vaale dekhe

kaalī piilī mushkī kursī husn ke dil kī dhaḌkan Thahrī

us ke aage pīchhe ham ne aafat ke par kaale dekhe

gul khilte gul ugte dekhe maiḳhāne ke andar bāhar

saaqī dekhā miinā dekhī baada dekhā pyāle dekhe

ghar vaale jī chhoḌ chuke jab jakaḌ pakaḌ ke tūfānoñ meñ

ghar ke andar jagah jagah par makḌī dekhī jaale dekhe

aaj assembly hall ke bāhar ahl-e-nazar kā mela dekhā

member ḳhātūneñ bhī dekhīñ aur un ke ghar vaale dekhe

baḌe baḌe sarmāya vaale dūlhā ban kar kursī laa.e

chhoTe-moTe nau-daulatiye kursī ke shah-bāle dekhe

kursī pā kar apne 'zaidī' apnoñ se kaise milte haiñ

āñkheñ rakhne vaalā koī mere dil ke chhāle dekhe

dhobi nai shaiKH waDere kursi ke matwale dekhe

ashrafon ki baat na puchho sab ke munh par tale dekhe

kursi ke shaidai yaro mashriq maghrib wale dekhe

us ki dhun mein jaan se jate aksar gore kale dekhe

kursi ko mazbut na kahna baat baDi munh chhoTa sa hai

kursi toD tamasha karte aksar laDke baale dekhe

kursi hasil kar lena bhi aisi-waisi baat na samjho

kursi ki hasrat mein jhukte baDe baDe ji wale dekhe

kali pili mushki kursi husn ke dil ki dhaDkan Thahri

us ke aage pichhe hum ne aafat ke par kale dekhe

gul khilte gul ugte dekhe maiKHane ke andar bahar

saqi dekha mina dekhi baada dekha pyale dekhe

ghar wale ji chhoD chuke jab jakaD pakaD ke tufanon mein

ghar ke andar jagah jagah par makDi dekhi jale dekhe

aaj assembly hall ke bahar ahl-e-nazar ka mela dekha

member KHatunen bhi dekhin aur un ke ghar wale dekhe

baDe baDe sarmaya wale dulha ban kar kursi lae

chhoTe-moTe nau-daulatiye kursi ke shah-baale dekhe

kursi pa kar apne 'zaidi' apnon se kaise milte hain

aankhen rakhne wala koi mere dil ke chhaale dekhe
