MORE BYAltaf Hussain Hali

    jhuTpuTe ke vaqt ghar se ek miTTī diyā

    ek buḌhiyā ne sar-e-rah ke raushan kar diyā

    taaki rah-gīr aur pardesī kahīñ Thokar na khā.eñ

    raah se āsāñ guzar jaa.e har ek chhoTā baḌā

    ye diyā behtar hai un jhāḌoñ se aur us lamp se

    raushnī mahloñ ke andar rahī jin sadā

    gar nikal kar ik zarā mahloñ se bāhar dekhiye

    hai añdherā ghup dar-o-dīvār par chhāyā huā

    surḳh-rū āfāq meñ vo rahnumā mīnār haiñ

    raushnī se jin mallāhoñ ke beḌe paar haiñ

    ham ne in aalī bināoñ se kiyā akasr savāl

    āshkārā jin se un ke bāniyoñ hai jalāl

    shān-o-shaukat tumhārī dhuum hai āfāq meñ

    duur se aa aa ke tum ko dekhte haiñ bā-kamāl

    qaum ko is shān-o-shaukat se tumhārī kyā milā

    do javāb is agar rakhtī ho yārā-e-maqāl

    sar-nigūñ ho kar vo sab bolīñ zabān-e-hāl se

    ho sakā ham se na kuchh al-infi.āl al-infi.āl

    bāniyoñ ne thā banāyā is liye goyā hameñ

    ham ko jab dekheñ ḳhalaf aslāf ko royā kareñ

    shauq se us ne banāyā maqbara ik shāndār

    aur chhoḌā us ne ik aivān-e-ālī yādgār

    ek ne duniyā ke paude baaġh meñ apne lagā.e

    ek ne chhoḌe dafīne sīm-o-zar ke be-shumār

    ik muhibb-e-qaum ne apne mubārak haath se

    qaum ta.alīm buniyād Daalī ustuvār

    hogī aalam meñ kaho sarsabz ye pichhlī murād

    vo agloñ umīdeñ lā.eñgī kuchh barg-o-bār

    chashma-e-sar jyuuñ hai jo bahtā rahegā yaañ vahī

    sab utar jā.eñgī chaḌh chaḌh naddiyāñ barsāt

    jhuTpuTe ke waqt ghar se ek miTTi ka diya

    ek buDhiya ne sar-e-rah la ke raushan kar diya

    taki rah-gir aur pardesi kahin Thokar na khaen

    rah se aasan guzar jae har ek chhoTa baDa

    ye diya behtar hai un jhaDon se aur us lamp se

    raushni mahlon ke andar hi rahi jin ki sada

    gar nikal kar ek zara mahlon se bahar dekhiye

    hai andhera ghup dar-o-diwar par chhaya hua

    surKH-ru aafaq mein wo rahnuma minar hain

    raushni se jin ki mallahon ke beDe par hain

    hum ne in aali binaon se kiya akasr sawal

    aashkara jin se un ke baniyon ka hai jalal

    shan-o-shaukat ki tumhaari dhum hai aafaq mein

    dur se aa aa ke tum ko dekhte hain ba-kamal

    qaum ko is shan-o-shaukat se tumhaari kya mila

    do jawab is ka agar rakhti ho yara-e-maqal

    sar-nigun ho kar wo sab bolin zaban-e-haal se

    ho saka hum se na kuchh al-infial al-infial

    baniyon ne tha banaya is liye goya hamein

    hum ko jab dekhen KHalaf aslaf ko roya karen

    shauq se us ne banaya maqbara ek shandar

    aur chhoDa us ne ek aiwan-e-ali yaadgar

    ek ne duniya ke paude bagh mein apne lagae

    ek ne chhoDe dafine sim-o-zar ke be-shumar

    ek muhibb-e-qaum ne apne mubarak hath se

    qaum ki talim ki buniyaad Dali ustuwar

    hogi aalam mein kaho sarsabz ye pichhli murad

    ya wo aglon ki umiden laengi kuchh barg-o-bar

    chashma-e-sar jyun hai jo bahta rahega yan wahi

    sab utar jaengi chaDh chaDh naddiyan barsat ki
