Asrarul Haq Majaz
phir chali hai rail station se lahrati hui
nim-shab ki khamushi men zer-e-lab gaati hui
dagmagati jhumti siiti bajati khelti
vaadi o kohsar ki thandi hava khati hui
tez jhonkon men vo chham chham ka surud-e-dil-nashin
andhiyon men menh barasne ki sada aati hui
jaise maujon ka tarannum jaise jal-pariyon ke giit
ek ik lai men hazaron zamzame gaati hui
naunihalon ko sunati mithi mithi loriyan
nazninon ko sunahre khvab dikhlati hui
thokaren kha kar lachakti gungunati jhumti
sarkhushi men ghungruon ki taal par gaati hui
naaz se har mod par khati hui sau pech-o-kham
ik dulhan apni ada se aap sharmati hui
raat ki tarikiyon men jhilmilati kanpti
ptriyon par duur tak simab jhalkati hui
jaise aadhi raat ko nikli ho ik shahi barat
shadyanon ki sada se vajd men aati hui
muntashir kar ke faza men ja-ba-ja chingariyan
daman-e-mauj-e-hava men phuul barsati hui
tez-tar hoti hui manzil-ba-manzil dam-ba-dam
rafta rafta apna asli ruup dikhlati hui
sina-e-kohsar par chadhti hui be-ikhtiyar
ek nagan jis tarah masti men lahrati hui
ik sitara tuut kar jaise ravan ho arsh se
rifat-e-kohsar se maidan men aati hui
ik bagule ki tarah badhti hui maidan men
jangalon men andhiyon ka zor dikhlati hui
rasa-bar-andam karti anjum-e-shab-tab ko
ashiyan men tair-e-vahshi ko chaunkati hui
yaad aa jaae purane devtaon ka jalal
un qayamat-kheziyon ke saath bal khati hui
ek rakhsh-e-be-inan ki barq-raftari ke saath
khandaqon ko phandti tilon se katrati hui
murgh-zaron men dikhati ju-e-shirin ka khiram
vadiyon men abr ke manind mandlati hui
ik pahadi par dikhati absharon ki jhalak
ik bayaban men charagh-e-tur dikhlati hui
justuju men manzil-e-maqsud ki divana-var
apna sar dhunti faza men baal bikhrati hui
chhedti ik vajd ke aalam men saz-e-sarmadi
ghaiz ke aalam men munh se aag barsati hui
rengti mudti machalti tilmilati hanpti
apne dil ki atish pinhan ko bhadkati hui
khud-ba-khud ruthi hui biphri hui bikhri hui
shor-e-paiham se dil-e-giti ko dhadkati hui
pul pe dariya ke dama-dam kaundti lalkarti
apni is tufan-angezi pe itrati hui
pesh karti biich naddi men charaghan ka saman
sahilon par ret ke zarron ko chamkati hui
munh men ghusti hai surangon ke yakayak daud kar
dandanati chikhti chinghadti gaati hui
aage aage justuju-amez nazren dalti
shab ke haibatnak nazzaron se ghabrati hui
ek mujrim ki tarah sahmi hui simti hui
ek muflis ki tarah sardi men tharrati hui
tez-e-raftar ke sikke jamati ja-ba-ja
dasht o dar men zindagi ki lahar daudati hui
daal kar guzre manazir par andhere ka naqab
ik naya manzar nazar ke samne laati hui
safha-e-dil se mitati ahd-e-mazi ke nuqush
haal o mustaqbil ke dilkash khvab dikhlati hui
dalti be-his chatanon par haqarat ki nazar
koh par hansti falak ko aankh dikhlati hui
daman-e-tariki-e-shab ki udati dhajjiyan
qasr-e-zulmat par musalsal tiir barsati hui
zad men koi chiiz aa jaae to us ko piis kar
irtiqa-e-zindagi ke raaz batlati hui
zoam men peshani-e-sahra pe thokar marti
phir subuk-raftariyon ke naaz dikhlati hui
ek sarkash fauj ki surat alam khole hue
ek tufani garaj ke saath darati hui
ek ik harkat se andaz-e-baghavat ashkar
azmat-e-insaiyat ke zamzame gaati hui
har qadam par top ki si ghan-garaj ke saath saath
goliyon ki sansanahat ki sada aati hui
vo hava men saikadon jangi duhal bajte hue
vo bigul ki jan-fazan avaz lahrati hui
al-gharaz udti chali jaati hai be-khauf-o-khatar
shair-e-atish-nafas ka khuun khaulati hui
