Mujhe Kahna Hai

Bashar Nawaz

nahin main yuun nahin kahta

ki ye duniya jahannam aur ham sab is ka indhan hain

nahin yuun bhi nahin kahta

ki ham jannat ke baasi hain

saron par la-javrdi shamiyane aur pairon men

nirale zaeqon vaale phalon ke ped shiir o shahad ki nahren machalti hain

mujhe to bas yahi kuchh aam si kuchh chhoti chhoti baten kahni hain

mujhe kahna hai

is dharti pe gulshan bhi hain sahra bhi

mahakti narm mitti bhi

aur us ki kokh men khvabon ka jaadu aane vaali nit nai faslon ki khushbu bhi

chatakhti aur tapti sakht be-his khuun ki pyasi chatanen bhi

mujhe kahna hai

ham sab apni dharti ki

burai aur bhalai sakhtiyon aur narmiyon achchhaiyon kotahiyon har rang

har pahlu ke mazhar hain

hamen insan ki manind

khair o shar mohabbat aur nafrat dushmani aur dosti ke saath jiina hai

isi dharti ka shahad o sam

isi dharti ke khat-mith jaane pahchane maze ka jaam piina hai

mujhe bas itna kahna hai

ki ham ko asmanon ya khalaon ki koi makhluq mat samjho
