Mis Simin Badan

ek mis simin badan se kar liya london mein aqd

is KHata par sun raha hun tana-ha-e-dil-KHarash

koi kahta hai ki bas us ne bigaDi nasl-e-qaum

koi kahta hai ki ye hai bad-KHisal-o-bad-maash

dil mein kuchh insaf karta hi nahin koi buzurg

ho ke ab majbur KHud is raaz ko karta hun fash

hoti thi takid london jao angrezi paDho

qaum-e-english se milo sikho wahi waza-e-tarash

jagmagate hoTalon ka ja ke nazzara karo

soup o karri ke maze lo chhoD kar yaKHni o aash

leadiyon se mil ke dekho un ke andaz-o-tariq

hall mein nacho clab mein jake khelo un se tash

baada-e-tahzib-e-europe ke chaDhao KHum ke KHum

asia ke shisha-e-taqwa ko kar do pash pash

jab amal is par kiya pariyon ka saya ho gaya

jis se tha dil ki hararat ko sarasar inteash

samne thin leadiyan zehara-wash o jadu-nazar

yan jawani ki umang aur un ko aashiq ki talash

us ki chitwan sehar-agin us ki baaten dil-ruba

chaal us ki fitna-KHez us ki nigahen barq-pash

wo farogh-e-atish-e-ruKH jis ke aage aaftab

is tarah jaise ki pesh-e-shama parwane ki lash

jab ye surat thi to mumkin tha ki ek barq-e-bala

dast-e-simin ko baDhati aur main kahta dur-bash?

donon jaanib tha ragon mein josh-e-KHun-e-fitna-za

dil hi tha aaKHir nahin thi barf ki ye koi qash

bar bar aata hai 'akbar' mere dil mein ye KHayal

hazrat-e-sayyad se jakar arz karta koi kash

'darmiyan-e-qar-e-dariya taKHta-bandam-karda-i

baz-mi-goi ki daman-e-tar makun-hushyar-bash
