Interesting Fact
(Upon seeing a picture of the poet Keats) (Tiruchirappalli, 1952)
na jaane kitne hī maazī ke ḳhvāb bikhre haiñ
fasurda bhīgī huī sogvār palkoñ par
junūñ hai yā ki ḳhirad is nigāh kā mafhūm
ḳhalā meñ DhūñD rahā hai koī na jaane kyā
nigāh dekh rahī haiñ pare zamāne se
hai khoyā khoyā huā ramz-e-zindagī goyā
fasāna-e-ġham-e-jānāñ hai yā ġham-e-duniyā
machal rahe haiñ in āñkhoñ meñ aarzū ke sharār
in āñsuoñ meñ numāyāñ haiñ vaqt kī lahreñ
sunā.ī detī hai rah rah ke zindagī kī pukār
laboñ ko gar milī jumbish to naġhma phuuT paḌā
kabhī nashāt kā jaadū kabhī koī ġham hai
ḳhamoshiyoñ meñ hai īmān-o-āgahī kī jilā
umīd-o-bīm se aage nayā hī aalam hai
sahar kā nuur hai us kī nigāh meñ 'anjum'
zamīñ ke husn ko shādāb karne aayā hai
na jaane kitne hi mazi ke KHwab bikhre hain
fasurda bhigi hui sogwar palkon par
junun hai ya ki KHirad is nigah ka mafhum
KHala mein DhunD raha hai koi na jaane kya
nigah dekh rahi hain pare zamane se
hai khoya khoya hua ramz-e-zindagi goya
fasana-e-gham-e-jaanan hai ya gham-e-duniya
machal rahe hain in aankhon mein aarzu ke sharar
in aansuon mein numayan hain waqt ki lahren
sunai deti hai rah rah ke zindagi ki pukar
labon ko gar mili jumbish to naghma phuT paDa
kabhi nashat ka jadu kabhi koi gham hai
KHamoshiyon mein hai iman-o-agahi ki jila
umid-o-bim se aage naya hi aalam hai
sahar ka nur hai us ki nigah mein 'anjum'
zamin ke husn ko shadab karne aaya hai
