Kaisa Hai Zamane Ka Chalan Dekh Zara Dekh

Rizvan Anjum

kaisa hai zamane ka chalan dekh zara dekh

yaron ke hai mathe pe shikan dekh zara dekh

parde ki haqiqat se hue duur musalman

poshak men bhi nange badan dekh zara dekh

aulad ki ḳhatir sabhi maan baap yahan par

kya kya nahin karte hain jatan dekh zara dekh

ghar baar ki fikren ab unhen raund rahi hain

jo log the sarmaya-e-fan dekh zara dekh

jo ahl tha mahrum raha daad se lekin

kis ko hai mili dad-e-suḳhan dekh zara dekh

jiddat kahe jaata hai tu gumrahi ko paiham

apna bhi to andaz-e-suḳhan dekh zara dekh

ye ratjage ankhon ko bhi viran na kar den

‘anjum’ miri ankhon men thakan dekh zara dekh
