MORE BYNoon Meem Rashid

    mujhe maut ā.egī, mar jā.ūñgā maiñ,

    tujhe maut ā.egī, mar jā.egī tuu,

    vo pahlī shab-e-mah shab-e-māh-e-do-nīm ban jā.egī

    jis tarah sāz-kohnā ke tār-e-shikastā ke donoñ sire

    duur ufuq ke kināroñ ke mānind

    bas duur duur se thartharāte haiñ aur paas aate nahīñ haiñ

    na vo raaz baat hoñToñ pe laate haiñ

    jis ne muġhannī ko daur-e-zamāñ-o-makāñ se nikālā thaa,

    baḳhshī thī ḳhvāb-e-abad se rihā.ī!

    ye sach hai to phir kyuuñ

    koī aisī sūrat, koī aisā hiila na thā

    jis se ham aane vaale zamāne aahaT ko sun kar

    vahīñ us yūrish ko sapnoñ pe yuuñ rok lete

    ke ham terī manzil nahīñ, terā maljā o maavā nahīñ haiñ?

    ye sochā thā shāyad

    ke ḳhud pahle is bod ke āfrīnda ban jā.eñge

    ab jo ik bahr-e-ḳhamiyāza-kash ban gayā hai!

    to phir az-sar-e-nau masarrat se, nau-ras na.ī fātehāna masarrat se

    pā.eñge bhūlī huī zindagī ko

    vahī ḳhud-farebī, vahī ashk-shoī adnā bahānā!

    magar ab vahī bod sargoshiyāñ kar rahā hai

    ke apnī manzil ko vāpas nahīñ sakegā,

    nahīñ sakegā

    mujhe maut ā.egī, mar jā.ūñgā maiñ,

    tujhe maut ā.egī, mar jā.ūñgā maiñ,

    tujhe maut ā.egī, mar jā.egī tuu,

    ye ifrīt pahle hazīmat uThā.egā, miT jā.egā!

    mujhe maut aaegi, mar jaunga main,

    tujhe maut aaegi, mar jaegi tu,

    wo pahli shab-e-mah shab-e-mah-e-do-nim ban jaegi

    jis tarah saz-kohna ke tar-e-shikasta ke donon sire

    dur ufuq ke kinaron ke manind

    bas dur hi dur se thartharaate hain aur pas aate nahin hain

    na wo raaz ki baat honTon pe late hain

    jis ne mughanni ko daur-e-zaman-o-makan se nikala tha,

    baKHshi thi KHwab-e-abad se rihai!

    ye sach hai to phir kyun

    koi aisi surat, koi aisa hila na tha

    jis se hum aane wale zamane ki aahaT ko sun kar

    wahin us ki yurish ko sapnon pe yun rok lete

    ke hum teri manzil nahin, tera malja o mawa nahin hain?

    ye socha tha shayad

    ke KHud pahle is bod ke aafrinda ban jaenge

    ab jo ek bahr-e-KHamiyaza-kash ban gaya hai!

    to phir az-sar-e-nau masarrat se, nau-ras nai fatehana masarrat se

    paenge bhuli hui zindagi ko

    wahi KHud-farebi, wahi ashk-shoi ka adna bahana!

    magar ab wahi bod sargoshiyan kar raha hai

    ke tu apni manzil ko wapas nahin ja sakega,

    nahin ja sakega

    mujhe maut aaegi, mar jaunga main,

    tujhe maut aaegi, mar jaunga main,

    tujhe maut aaegi, mar jaegi tu,

    ye ifrit pahle hazimat uThaega, miT jaega!
