  • Ghazal


agarche maslahat-amez hi hai


agarche maslahat-āmez hī hai
kaḌe lahje se behtar ḳhāmushī hai

nazar kī pyaas to nazroñ se pūchho
haiñ zer-e-āb phir bhī tishnagī hai

vahī chhūte haiñ aksar āsmāñ ko
jabīñ jin kī zamīnoñ par jhukī hai

varaq āhistagī se kholiyegā
bahut ḳhasta kitāb-e-zindagī hai

marāsim pahle bhī achchhe nahīñ the
magar ab to diloñ meñ be-dilī hai

mirī bechārgī par hañs rahā hai
ye merā dost hai yā ajnabī hai

tirī sargoshiyoñ kā ye asar hai
anā maiñ rach ga.ī ik naġhmagī hai

agarche maslahat-amez hi hai
kaDe lahje se behtar KHamushi hai

nazar ki pyas to nazron se puchho
hain zer-e-ab phir bhi tishnagi hai

wahi chhute hain aksar aasman ko
jabin jin ki zaminon par jhuki hai

waraq aahistagi se kholiyega
bahut KHasta kitab-e-zindagi hai

marasim pahle bhi achchhe nahin the
magar ab to dilon mein be-dili hai

meri bechaargi par hans raha hai
ye mera dost hai ya ajnabi hai

teri sargoshiyon ka ye asar hai
ana main rach gai ek naghmagi hai
