tah-e-KHanjar

MORE BYOwais Ahmad Dauran

    aqallīyat kahīñ ho tah-e-ḳhanjar rahtī hai

    halākat-ḳhez hāthoñ ke hazāroñ jabr sahtī hai

    ḳhas-o-ḳhāshāk mānind sail-e-ġham meñ bahtī hai

    na koī ḳhvāb āñkhoñ meñ na dil meñ aasrā koī

    na jū-e-ḳhūñ se bachne nazar meñ rāsta koī

    na mustaqbil āvāzeñ na manzil sadā koī

    ḳhud apnī fazā meñ ḳhauf ehsās har lamha

    adam-mahfūziyat duur tak ġhamnāk sannāTā

    suhānī ho ke bhī be-raunaq-o-be-kaif duniyā

    haqārat nazar nafrat chiñgārī ta.āqub meñ

    musībat aage aage zillat-o-ḳhvārī ta.āqub meñ

    jidhar jaa.e vahīñ tūfān-e-be-zārī ta.āqub meñ

    zabāñ ma.atūb tahzīb-o-saqāfat daar zad meñ

    ghar āñgan izzat-o-nāmūs kul talvār zad meñ

    laboñ muskurāhaT ātishīñ yalġhār zad meñ

    aqallīyat jahāñ bhī hai yahī us muqaddar hai

    ye zaḳhmī be-amāñ maḳhlūq har zer-e-ḳhanjar hai

    batā ai dil ye ġham raat hai roz-e-mahshar hai

    aqalliyat kahin ki ho tah-e-KHanjar hi rahti hai

    halakat-KHez hathon ke hazaron jabr sahti hai

    KHas-o-KHashak ki manind sail-e-gham mein bahti hai

    na koi KHwab aankhon mein na dil mein aasra koi

    na ju-e-KHun se bachne ka nazar mein rasta koi

    na mustaqbil ki aawazen na manzil ki sada koi

    KHud apni hi faza mein KHauf ka ehsas har lamha

    adam-mahfuziyat ka dur tak ghamnak sannaTa

    suhani ho ke bhi be-raunaq-o-be-kaif si duniya

    haqarat ki nazar nafrat ki chingari taaqub mein

    musibat aage aage zillat-o-KHwari taaqub mein

    jidhar jae wahin tufan-e-be-zari taaqub mein

    zaban matub tahzib-o-saqafat dar ki zad mein

    ghar aangan izzat-o-namus kul talwar ki zad mein

    labon ki muskurahaT aatishin yalghaar ki zad mein

    aqalliyat jahan bhi hai yahi us ka muqaddar hai

    ye zaKHmi be-aman maKHluq har su zer-e-KHanjar hai

    bata ai dil ye gham ki raat hai ya roz-e-mahshar hai
