Insaf

Zehra Nigaah

main is chhote se kamre men

azad bhi huun aur qaid bhi huun

is kamre men ik khidki hai

jo chhat ke barabar unchi hai

jab suraj dubne lagta hai

kamre ki chhat se guzarta hai

mutthi bhar kirnon ke zarre

khidki se andar aate hain

main is raste par chalti huun

aur apne ghar ho aati huun

mira baap abhi tak mere liye

jab shahr se vapas aata hai

chadar kanghi kajal chudi

jaane kya kya le aata hai

mere donon bhaai ab bhi

masjid men padhne jaate hain

ahkam-e-khudavandi saare

padhte hain aur dohrate hain

aapa mire hisse ki roti

changir men dhak kar rakhti hai

aur subh savere uth kar vo

roti chidiyon ko deti hai

maan meri kuchh pagal si hai

ya patthar chunti rahti hai

ya daana chugti chidiyon se

kuchh baten karti rahti hai

vo kahti hai jab ye chidiyan

sab is ki baat samajh lengi

chonchon men patthar bhar lengi

panjon men sang samo lengi

phir vo tufan aa jaega

jis se har mimbar har munsif

para-para ho jaega

mera insaf karega vo

jo sab ka hakim-e-ala hai

sab jis ki nazar men yaksan hain

jo munsif izzat vaala hai

main maan ko kaise samjhaun

kya main koi khana-kaaba huun
