Jaen Kahan Hum

tabiat jo andar se jhunjhla rahi hai

to bahar se aawaz ye aa rahi hai

ki ai fazil-e-dars-gah-e-himaqat

hijabaat-e-danish uTha kar bhi dekho

sharafat ke pichhe jigar ho gaya KHun

sharafat se pichha chhuDa kar bhi dekho

azal se mohabbat KHudi ka hai zindan

ab is se zara bahar aa kar bhi dekho

murawwat ne pahnai hain beDiyan jo

zara un ka loha ghula kar bhi dekho

tasawwur ki wadi mein bhaTkoge kab tak

kabhi shahr-e-imkan mein ja kar bhi dekho

gharaz 'mazhari' is dayar-e-junun mein

mila, kuchh na khone se pa kar bhi dekho

suna mashwara tera ai saut-e-ghaibi

zalalat ki sarhad mein aa kar bhi dekha

rizalat ki gardan mein banhen bhi Dalin

sharafat se pichha chhuDa kar bhi dekha

hamiyyat ka ghonTa gala rafta rafta

mohabbat ko phansi chaDha kar bhi dekha

kaf-e-mor se us ka luqma bhi chhina

haq-e-ahl-e-KHidmat chura kar bhi dekha

shuur o KHirad ko ghurur o hasad ko

sula kar bhi dekha jaga kar bhi

phire ku-ba-ku aql ki rahbari mein

gharaz ye ki kho kar bhi, pa kar bhi dekha

na khone se hasil, na pane se hasil

jise sud kahte hain wo bhi ziyan hai

yahi bas ki taqdir-e-aql o junun hai

yahi KHisht-e-tamir-e-kaun-o-makan hai

mohabbat jahannam hai, nafrat jahannam

jidhar jaen ek aag shola-fishan hai

dayar-e-wafa ya dayar-e-hawas ho

na rahat yahan hai na rahat wahan hai

sharafat bhi gham-gin rizalat bhi gham-gin

bas ab munh na khulwa KHuda darmiyan hai

samak se sama tak tapish hi tapish hai

faza se KHala tak fughan hi fughan hai

KHudi panw pakDe hai jaen kahan hum

tasawwur ki jannat banaen kahan hum
