sahira

MORE BYAshfaq Ahmad Saim

    vo sāhira thī kisī ḳhayāl vajūd thī

    ḳhudī meñ ek ḳhvāb thī ḳhvāb numūd thī

    vo aañkh thī jal rahe the sard raat ke diye

    vo saañs thī ki chal rahe the ḳhushbuoñ ke qāfile

    vo rahguzar pe chal rahī thī manzaroñ ke darmiyāñ

    vo sā.ebāñ kiye hue thī sar pe us ke kahkashāñ

    utar ke dil vādiyoñ meñ ek kaam kar ga.ī

    tamāzatoñ ke shahr meñ hasīn shaam kar ga.ī

    jamāl-e-husn-e-yār vafā bhī kyā ḳhuub thī

    kamāl-e-dilbarī vo adā bhī kyā ḳhuub thī

    vo titliyoñ ke rang banā huā thā pairahan

    gulāb mausamoñ meñ jaise ghul rahā thā gul-badan

    vo jugnūoñ ke des meñ khilī khilī chāñdnī

    vo chāñdnī ke bhes meñ ruke ruke se mehr-o-māh

    vo manzaroñ pe khul rahā thā us husn-e-jāvedāñ

    qadam qadam pe ho rahe the us pe aa ke mehrbāñ

    vo boltī to lafz us ke hoñT chūmte the

    vo gungunā rahī thī to shajar bhī jhūmte the

    vo zulf thī ki raat samāñ banā rahī thī yaar

    vo muskurā ke manzaroñ dil jalā rahī thī yaar

    vo dhaḌkanoñ ke saaz par bhī zindagī raqs thā

    vo ā.ina-misāl thī ḳhushbuoñ aks thā

    vo chūḌiyoñ taal par bhī kaif thā fazāoñ meñ

    vo surma.ī shaam meñ kisī hasīn gaañv meñ

    thī rū-ba-rū to yuuñ lagā ki chāñd aa gayā koī

    falak pe aaTh rang dhanak banā gayā koī

    vo haath thaam kar mirā chalī to phuul khil uThe

    vo tāqchoñ meñ muntazir charāġh ḳhud jal uThe

    vo saath saath thī to phir zamāñ badalne lag ga.e

    zamāñ to phir zamāñ bhalā jahāñ badalne lag ga.e

    guzār jo us ke sang zindagī tamām thī

    baḌī hasīn sub.h thī baḌī hasīn shaam thī

    wo sahira thi ya kisi KHayal ka wajud thi

    KHudi mein ek KHwab thi ya KHwab ki numud thi

    wo aankh thi ya jal rahe the sard raat ke diye

    wo sans thi ki chal rahe the KHushbuon ke qafile

    wo rahguzar pe chal rahi thi manzaron ke darmiyan

    wo saeban kiye hue thi sar pe us ke kahkashan

    utar ke dil ki wadiyon mein ek kaam kar gai

    tamazaton ke shahr mein hasin sham kar gai

    jamal-e-husn-e-yar ki wafa bhi kya hi KHub thi

    kamal-e-dilbari ki wo ada bhi kya hi KHub thi

    wo titliyon ke rang sa bana hua tha pairahan

    gulab mausamon mein jaise ghul raha tha gul-badan

    wo jugnuon ke des mein khili khili si chandni

    wo chandni ke bhes mein ruke ruke se mehr-o-mah

    wo manzaron pe khul raha tha us ka husn-e-jawedan

    qadam qadam pe ho rahe the us pe aa ke mehrban

    wo bolti to lafz us ke honT chumte the na

    wo gunguna rahi thi to shajar bhi jhumte the na

    wo zulf thi ki raat ka saman bana rahi thi yar

    wo muskura ke manzaron ka dil jala rahi thi yar

    wo dhaDkanon ke saz par bhi zindagi ka raqs tha

    wo aaina-misal thi ya KHushbuon ka aks tha

    wo chuDiyon ki tal par bhi kaif tha fazaon mein

    wo surmai si sham mein kisi hasin ganw mein

    thi ru-ba-ru to yun laga ki chand aa gaya koi

    falak pe aaTh rang ki dhanak bana gaya koi

    wo hath tham kar mera chali to phul khil uThe

    wo taqchon mein muntazir charagh KHud hi jal uThe

    wo sath sath thi to phir zaman badalne lag gae

    zaman to phir zaman bhala jahan badalne lag gae

    guzar li jo us ke sang zindagi tamam thi

    baDi hasin subh thi baDi hasin sham thi
