Nazm

use chahen to aahen

dil ki sab rahen dhuen se tira-o-tarik kar Dalen

nigahen yun karahen

jaise ta-hadd-e-nazar us ki shuaen marg-asa jal phaila den

har ek shab sans ke taron ko uljhae

sahar-dam KHwab-gah par kasmapursi saya saya is tarah manDlae

pairahan-e-lahu mein tar-ba-tar jaise kisi turbat pe lahrae

use DhunDen to raste

jaan ke darpai

jahazon kashtiyon se lahlahate zindagi-parwar samundar

barf se bhar jaen

har jaanib milen koh-e-nida ghol-e-bayaban

aur kabhi KHemon ki KHuni dhajjiyan TuTi tanaben haDDiyan

haibat dilaen

karwan katraen

jaise hum zamin par bojh hon

har samt sidra hai

sitare KHushbuen jugnu hawaen sab ghalat raste bataen

panw nezon par chalen

aur wo to kya

dast-e-talab mein apni KHakistar bhi anqa ho

ise paen to sare mahl

gir jaen iram uTh jaen

peDon aur diwaron ke sae uD chalen

suraj ki kirnen muD chalen kuchh aur duniyaon ki jaanib

ungliyan uTThen sannaTon ki tarah

aur sath chalna KHalq ki ismat-dari jaise

zamin af af se fankaron se neshon se bhari jaise

use chahen to kya

DhunDhen to kaise

paen to pa kar kahan jaen
