Agar Alfaz Se Gham Ka Izala Ho Gaya Hota

Sabeela Inam Siddiqui

agar alfaz se gham ka izala ho gaya hota

haqiqat to na hoti bas dikhava ho gaya hota

agar apna samajh kar sirf ik avaz de jaate

yaqin maano ki mera dil tumhara ho gaya hota

shab-e-furqat men jitne ḳhvab bhi milne ke dekhe the

agar ta.abir milti to ujala ho gaya hota

na karte munqata.a gar tum marasim ki hasin rahen

to qasid ḳhat mira dene ravana ho gaya hota

mohabbat ki agar pakizgi par tum yaqin karte

to mil kar tum se puura sab ḳhasara ho gaya hota

miri ashuftagi par ab zamane ko ta.ajjub kyuun

agar ulfat na hoti dil siyana ho gaya hota

dil-e-furqat-zada men hai jo ik nasur muddat se

mualij gar samajh paata ifaqa ho gaya hota

jo dukh ki fasl boi hai to ab dukh kaTna hoga

mukafat-e-amal samjhe ishara ho gaya hota

ye hikmat hai ‘sabila’ ziist men rab ne kami rakkhi

vagarna har bashar ḳhud men ḳhuda sa ho gaya hota
