Nazm Ittihad

fasl-e-bahaar aai magar hum hain aur gham

har samt se hain ghere hue sadma-o-alam

aai na uf zaban pe sitam par hue sitam

kya imtihan ke waste Thahre hain sirf hum

jab apni quwwaton pe bharosa nahin raha

behtar hai phir jahan se uTha le hamein KHuda

is umr-e-chand-roza mein ki lakh justuju

chhani hai hum ne KHak zamane mein ku-ba-ku

shikwa adu ka kya hai jab ahbab hain adu

jine ki ek second nahin ab to aarzu

hum ne samajh liya ki jahan se guzar gae

jab dil hi mar gaya to sab arman mar gae

hum par giraen charKH ne is had pe bijliyan

dam-bhar mein jal ke KHak huin sari ustuKHan

chalti rahin hawa-e-muKHalif ki aandhiyan

aata nahin samajh mein ki ja kar chhupen kahan

zer-e-zamin bhi chain ki ummid ab nahin

phir kya hai ye bata de koi gar ghazab nahin

makr-o-fareb se jo karen zindagi basar

sau jaan hazar dil se ho qurban har bashar

din raat hum hon aur hon ahbab-e-KHira-sar

iman-dariyon mein kaTi zindagi agar

har ek ki nigah mein bas KHar ho gae

be-sonche-samjhe mustahiq-e-dar ho gae

dawa to ye hai hum bhi musalman hain zarur

kalma jo pochhiye to nahin yaad hai huzur

kya gham agar shikasta azizon ke hain qubur

tera ye is pe had se ziyaada hai kuchh ghurur

melon ke waste jo talab ho to KHub den

qaumi jo koi kaam ho to nam bhi na len

puchha agar ibaadat-e-KHaliq hai koi chiz

farmaya dil mein ye to nihayat hai bad-tamiz

aiyyashiyan jo kijiye to aap hain aziz

ai qaum kahili hai teri ghar ki ab kaniz

achchhi buri ka jab to nahin imtiyaz hai

be-maegi par apni faqat tujh ko naz hai

hushyar koi lakh kare to hai be-KHabar

is darja be-haya ki nahin dil pe kuchh asar

nazan hain sirf bap ke dada ke nam par

qarze mein ho rahi hai magar zindagi basar

dekho to ghair hanste hain hoshyar ho zara

lillah ab to KHwab se bedar ho zara

phulo-phalo ilahi raho shad sar-ba-sar

ho naKHl-e-ittihad hamesha ye barwar

wo din KHuda dikhae ki le aae ye samar

aana hai tum ko manzil-e-maqsud tak agar

Dali hai ittihad ki tum ne jo dagh-bel

himmat na haaro jaan ke bachchon ka ek khel

dekho to aur qaumon mein kya ittihad hai

daulat se aur ilm se har ek shad hai

tum mein bhi aaj aisa koi KHush-nihad hai

mahmud ka ye qaul hamein ab to yaad hai

do din rahe jo aa ke jahan mein to khal gae

aaKHir ko misl-e-KHar-e-chaman se nikal gae

ai sakinan mauza-e-jugwur assalam

duniya hai aaj tum ko har ek baat ka payam

ab to nikalo apni dilon se KHayal-e-KHam

achchha nahin jo ghair ke ban jao tum ghulam

achchhi nasihaton pe amal phir zarur hai

koi na ye kahe ki sarasar qusur hai

apne umur mein na karo ghair ko sharik

shar ko na DhunDho aur karo KHair ko sharik

achchhe nahin safar jo karen sair ko sharik

kabe ke zikr mein na karo dair ko sharik

tum KHud rahe ho sahib-e-iqbaal dahr mein

kyun DhunDte ho zaiqa-e-shahd zahar mein

aKHlaq ka charagh bujhana na chahiye

zulmat-kada mein ghair ke jaana na chahiye

sachchi nasihaton ko bhulana na chahiye

tum ko kisi fareb mein aana na chahiye

allah ke bharosa pe har kaam tum karo

dushman bhi jis ko man len wo nam tum karo
