Zamin Ke Sath Falak Ke Safar Mein Hum Bhi Hain

Ghayas Mateen

zamin ke saath falak ke safar men ham bhi hain

qafas-nasib sahi bal-o-par men ham bhi hain

vahin se luuT ga.i raston ki tanha.i

jahan pe us ne ye jaana safar men ham bhi hain

to vo shajar jo sada barg-o-bar deta hai

misal-e-ab-e-nihan is shajar men ham bhi hain

jise kahin se samundar ne la ke phenk diya

tumhare saath ik aise hi ghar men ham bhi hain

kitab the to paḌhe ja sake na duniya se

lo ab charagh hue rahguzar men ham bhi hain

ḳhayal aag hai sho.ala hai fikr lau alfaz

ye sab hunar hain to phir is hunar men ham bhi hain

‘matin’ shahar bhi sahra-nazhad hai itna

ki sang-o-ḳhisht men divar-o-dar men ham bhi hain
