haweli
ek bosīda havelī yaanī farsūda samāj
le rahī hai naza.a ke aalam meñ murdoñ se ḳhirāj
ik musalsal gard meñ Duube hue sab bām-o-dar
jis taraf dekho añdherā jis taraf dekho khañDar
maar o kajdum ke Thikāne jis kī dīvāroñ ke chaak
uf ye raḳhne kis qadar tārīk kitne haul-nāk
jin meñ rahte haiñ mahājan jin meñ baste haiñ amiir
jin meñ kāshī ke barhaman jin meñ ka.abe ke faqīr
rahzanoñ kā qasr-e-shūrā qātiloñ kī ḳhvāb-gāh
khilkhilāte haiñ jarā.em jagmagāte haiñ gunāh
jis jagah kaTtā hai sar insāf kā īmān kā
roz o shab nīlām hotā hai jahāñ insān kā
ziist ko dars-e-ajal detī hai jis kī bārgāh
qahqaha ban kar nikaltī hai jahāñ har ek aah
sīm-o-zar kā devtā jis jā kabhī sotā nahīñ
zindagī kā bhuul kar jis jā guzar hotā nahīñ
hañs rahā hai zindagī par is tarah maazī kā haal
ḳhanda-zan ho jis tarah ismat pe qahba kā jamāl
ek jānib haiñ vahīñ in be-navāoñ ke giroh
haañ inhīñ be-nān o be-poshish gadāoñ ke giroh
jin ke dil kuchle hue jin kī tamannā pā.emāl
jhāñktā hai jin kī āñkhoñ se jahannam kā jalāl
ai ḳhudā-e-do-jahāñ ai vo jo har ik dil meñ hai
dekh tere haath kā shahkār kis manzil meñ hai
jāntā huuñ maut kā ham-sāz o hamdam kaun hai
kaun hai parvardigār-e-bazm-e-mātam kaun hai
koḌh ke dhabbe chhupā saktā nahīñ malbūs-e-dīñ
bhuuk ke shole bujh saktā nahīñ rūh-ul-amīñ
ai javāñ-sāl-e-jahāñ jān-e-jahān-e-zindagī
sārbān-e-zindagī rūh-e-ravān-e-zindagī!
jis ke ḳhūn-e-garam se bazm-e-charāġhāñ zindagī
jis ke firdausī tanaffus se gulistāñ zindagī
bijliyāñ jis kī kanīzeñ zalzale jis ke safīr
jis kā dil ḳhaibar-shikan jis kī nazar arjun kā tiir
haañ vo naġhma chheḌ jis se muskurā.e zindagī
to bajā-e-sāz-e-ulfat aur gaa.e zindagī
aa inhīñ khañDaroñ pe āzādī kā parcham khol deñ
aa inhīñ khañDaroñ pe āzādī kā parcham khol deñ
ek bosida haweli yani farsuda samaj
le rahi hai naza ke aalam mein murdon se KHiraj
ek musalsal gard mein Dube hue sab baam-o-dar
jis taraf dekho andhera jis taraf dekho khanDar
mar o kajdum ke Thikane jis ki diwaron ke chaak
uf ye raKHne kis qadar tarik kitne haul-nak
jin mein rahte hain mahajan jin mein baste hain amir
jin mein kashi ke barhaman jin mein kabe ke faqir
rahzanon ka qasr-e-shura qatilon ki KHwab-gah
khilkhilate hain jaraem jagmagate hain gunah
jis jagah kaTta hai sar insaf ka iman ka
roz o shab nilam hota hai jahan insan ka
zist ko dars-e-ajal deti hai jis ki bargah
qahqaha ban kar nikalti hai jahan har ek aah
sim-o-zar ka dewta jis ja kabhi sota nahin
zindagi ka bhul kar jis ja guzar hota nahin
hans raha hai zindagi par is tarah mazi ka haal
KHanda-zan ho jis tarah ismat pe qahba ka jamal
ek jaanib hain wahin in be-nawaon ke giroh
han inhin be-nan o be-poshish gadaon ke giroh
jin ke dil kuchle hue jin ki tamanna paemal
jhankta hai jin ki aankhon se jahannam ka jalal
ai KHuda-e-do-jahan ai wo jo har ek dil mein hai
dekh tere hath ka shahkar kis manzil mein hai
jaanta hun maut ka ham-saz o hamdam kaun hai
kaun hai parwardigar-e-bazm-e-matam kaun hai
koDh ke dhabbe chhupa sakta nahin malbus-e-din
bhuk ke shole bujh sakta nahin ruh-ul-amin
ai jawan-sal-e-jahan jaan-e-jahan-e-zindagi
sarban-e-zindagi ruh-e-rawan-e-zindagi!
jis ke KHun-e-garam se bazm-e-charaghan zindagi
jis ke firdausi tanaffus se gulistan zindagi
bijliyan jis ki kanizen zalzale jis ke safir
jis ka dil KHaibar-shikan jis ki nazar arjun ka tir
han wo naghma chheD jis se muskurae zindagi
to baja-e-saz-e-ulfat aur gae zindagi
aa inhin khanDaron pe aazadi ka parcham khol den
aa inhin khanDaron pe aazadi ka parcham khol den
