mata-e-alfaz

ye jo tum mujh se gurezāñ ho mirī baat suno

ham isī chhoTī sī duniyā ke kisī raste par

itifāqan kabhī bhūle se kahīñ mil jaa.eñ

kyā hī achchhā ho ki ham dūsre logoñ kī tarah

kuchh takalluf se sahī Thahar ke kuchh baat kareñ

aur is arsa-e-aḳhlāq-o-muravvat meñ kabhī

ek pal ke liye vo sā.at-e-nāzuk aa jaa.e

nāḳhun-e-lafz kisī yaad ke zaḳhmoñ ko chhue

ik jhijaktā huā jumla koī dukh de jaa.e

kaun jānegā ki ham donoñ pe kyā biitī hai

is ḳhamoshī ke añdheroñ se nikal aa.eñ chalo

kisī sulge hue lahje se charāġhāñ kar leñ

chun leñ phūloñ kī tarah ham bhī matā-e-alfāz

apne ujḌe hue dāman ko gulistāñ kar leñ

chun leñ phūloñ kī tarah ham bhī matā-e-alfāz

daulat-e-dard baḌī chiiz hai iqrār karo

ne.amat-e-ġham baḌī ne.amat hai ye iz.hār karo

lafz paimān bhī iqrār bhī iz.hār bhī haiñ

tāqat-e-sabr agar ho to ye ġham-ḳhvār bhī haiñ

haath ḳhālī huuñ to ye jins-e-girāñ-bār bhī haiñ

paas koī bhī na ho phir to ye dildār bhī haiñ

haath ḳhālī hoñ to ye jins-e-girāñ-bār bhī haiñ

ye jo tum mujh se gurezāñ ho mirī baat suno

ye jo tum mujh se gurezāñ ho mirī baat suno

ye jo tum mujh se gurezan ho meri baat suno

hum isi chhoTi si duniya ke kisi raste par

itifaqan kabhi bhule se kahin mil jaen

kya hi achchha ho ki hum dusre logon ki tarah

kuchh takalluf se sahi Thahar ke kuchh baat karen

aur is arsa-e-aKHlaq-o-murawwat mein kabhi

ek pal ke liye wo saat-e-nazuk aa jae

naKHun-e-lafz kisi yaad ke zaKHmon ko chhue

ek jhijakta hua jumla koi dukh de jae

kaun jaanega ki hum donon pe kya biti hai

is KHamoshi ke andheron se nikal aaen chalo

kisi sulge hue lahje se charaghan kar len

chun len phulon ki tarah hum bhi mata-e-alfaz

apne ujDe hue daman ko gulistan kar len

chun len phulon ki tarah hum bhi mata-e-alfaz

daulat-e-dard baDi chiz hai iqrar karo

neamat-e-gham baDi neamat hai ye izhaar karo

lafz paiman bhi iqrar bhi izhaar bhi hain

taqat-e-sabr agar ho to ye gham-KHwar bhi hain

hath KHali hun to ye jins-e-giran-bar bhi hain

pas koi bhi na ho phir to ye dildar bhi hain

hath KHali hon to ye jins-e-giran-bar bhi hain

ye jo tum mujh se gurezan ho meri baat suno

ye jo tum mujh se gurezan ho meri baat suno
