doshiza Malan

Kaifi Azmi

lo pau phati vo chhup gai taron ki anjuman

lo jam-e-mahr se vo chhalakne lagi kiran

khichne laga nigah men fitrat ka bankpan

jalve zamin pe barse zamin ban gai dulhan

gunje tarane subh ka ik shor ho gaya

aalam mai-e-baqa men sharabor ho gaya

phuli shafaq faza men hina tilmila gai

ik mauj-e-rang kaanp ke aalam pe chha gai

kul chandni simat ke gulon men sama gai

zarre bane nujum zamin jagmaga gai

chhoda sahar ne tirgi-e-shab ko kaat ke

udne lagi hava men kiran os chaat ke

machli jabin-e-sharq pe is tarah mauj-e-nur

lahra ke tairne lagi aalam men barq-e-tur

udne lagi shamim chhalakne laga surur

khilne lage shagufe chahakne lage tuyur

jhonke chale hava ke shajar jhumne lage

masti men phuul kanton ka munh chumne lage

tham tham ke zau-fishan hua zarron pe aftab

chhidka hava ne sabza-e-khvabida par gulab

murjhai pattiyon men machalne laga shabab

larzish hui gulon ko barasne lagi sharab

rindan-e-mast aur bhi sarmast ho gae

tharra ke hont jaam men paivast ho gae

doshiza ek khush-qad o khush-rang-o-khub-ru

malan ki nur-dida gulistan ki aabru

mahka rahi hai phulon se daman-e-arzu

tifli liye hai god men tufan-e-rang-o-bu

ranginiyon men kheli gulon men pali hui

nauras kali men qaus-e-quzah hai dhali hui

masti men rukh pe baal pareshan kiye hue

badal men sham-e-tur farozan kiye hue

har samt naqsh-e-pa se charaghan kiye hue

anchal ko bar-e-gul se gulistan kiye hue

lahra rahi hai bad-e-sahar paanv chuum ke

phirti hai titari si ghazab jhuum jhuum ke

zulfon men tab-e-sumbul-e-pechan liye hue

aariz men shokh rang-e-gulistan liye hue

ankhon men ruh-e-bada-e-irfan liye hue

honton men ab-e-laal-e-badakhshan liye hue

fitrat ne tol tol ke chashm-e-qubul men

saara chaman nichod diya ek phuul men

ai hur-e-bagh itni khudi se na kaam le

ud kar shamim-e-gul kahin anchal na thaam le

kaliyon ka le payam sahar ka salam le

‘kaifi’ se husn-e-dost ka taaza kalam le

shaer ka dil hai muft men kyuun dard-mand ho

ik gul idhar bhi nazm agar ye pasand ho
