Hail Dilon Ki Rah Mein Kuchh to Ana Bhi Hai

Zakir Khan Zakir

haa.il dilon ki raah men kuchh to ana bhi hai

ghafil samajh raha hai vahi ba-vafa bhi hai

aadat buri hai gham men saharon ki dosto

tanha sulagte rahne ka apna maza bhi hai

ham ne baḌe hi pyaar se rishte saja.e the

ab tum kaho ki rishton men kya kuchh bacha bhi hai

ik rabt-e-mustaqil hai isi rahguzar ke saath

jis rahguzar pe qafla-e-dil luTa bhi hai

ham rahravan-e-shahr-e-tamanna ko kya pata

manzil rah-e-talab se kahan tak juda bhi hai

hai aa.ine men aks mira zahiri magar

batin men jhankiye ki vo mujh se juda bhi hai

mazlum-e-husn huun so na tanha samajh mujhe

jis ka nahin hai koi to us ka ḳhuda bhi hai

be-ḳhauf banTte raho zulmat men nuur tum

apni tapish se kya koi jugnu jala bhi hai

paḌhiye mujhe saliqe se phir sochiye janab

kya dard-e-mustaqil hai maraz la-dava bhi hai

‘zakir’ ye taj-o-taḳht hai mansub un ke naam

jin ke saron pe saya-e-bal-e-huma bhi hai
