apni hastee ka hota sabhi ko paas hai
apni apni nazar maen har koi khaas hai

voh khushi jiski yaas maen gum umr sari
gar sochho to vohi dil ke aaspaas hai

yun to sabhi apne apne safar ke musafir
par ek hamsafar ki har kisi ko aas hai

tishnagi badhne lagi deedaare-yaar ki
bujhti nahi jo kabhi ye voh pyaas hai

ladkhadati zubaan shikwaye-jaure-adoo
hota nahi hamse zore-tarke-ikhlaas hai

hoga jahaan maen qayam aman kis tarah
aadmi ko hi nahi aata aadmi raas hai

husno-ishq se pare aaj fikro-nazar meri
pehlu maen tere dil phir bhi udaas hai

behis hui jati hai “fer” aalame-zindagi
na khushi ab koi na ghame-ehsaas hai

ek taazaa tareen ghazal—–khud hi sawaal

khud hi sawaal aur khud hi jawaab sa hun maen
jo naa samjhi gayi kabhi us kitaab sa hun maen

dekh to jaao kareeb se ke naayaab sa hun maen
vaqt ke sehraa maen ubhra saraab sa hun maen

kuch dam ka hun mehmaan hubaab sa hun maen
abhi to hun paas tere abhi dastyaab sa hun maen

aankhon se bahte ashko ka sailaab sa hun maen
jo musalsal barastaa raha voh aab sa hun maen

tadbeeron ke banisbat nakaamyaab sa hun maen
bigde huvey nasibon ka jaise hisaab sa hun maen

kahin paayaab hun to kahin sailaab sa hun maen
aseere mauje-zeest ki ravani girdaab sa hun maen

baar baar na kah zaahid ke kharaab sa hun maen
jo na aaunga phir haath voh sawaab sa hun maen

kisi ke dil maen sama jaata apna bhi dard zara
apne hi haale-dil ka khud naqaab sa hun maen

apni hi khushboo se mehroom gulaab sa hun maen
haqiqat ho kar bhi kyon “fer” khwaab sa hun maen

Hai kaun Zimmedaar (Nazm)
(A nazm on “Gujarat”)

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
apni hi kotaahiyon ka sabab tang nazari ye hamaari hai
har simt gunjte hai naare har lahzah khauf se bhaari hai
insaaniyat mit gayi dilon se ab gham-o-nafrat taari hai

bacche maaN-baap se chutay
kitnon ke hai ghar lutay
dil sabhi ke hain tutay
apnon se apne bhi ruthay

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
‘aahinsa’ki is sarzameen par tashaddud aaj bhi jaari hai
harsoo qatl-o-ghaarat ka hai manzar chaarsoo maaramari hai
akhlaaq ne to kab ka dam toda ab ikhlaas ki bhi baari hai

nazariyaa apna badalna hoga
is maahol se nikalna hoga
waqt ke saath chalna hoga
aaj gire kal sambhalna hoga

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
jism tuta huva bujhti nigaahen dilon maen beqaraari hai
goya aas na ho umeed paas na ho zindagi se bezaari hai
is maen nahi jeet kisi ki faqat aadmiyat hi haari hai

haq ka muhaafiz hi jab haq se muqar jaiy
ta’assub ki god maen insaaf neend bhar jaiy
fariyaad yateem bekaso ki jab be-asar jaiy
aise maen kya kare, kahaan koi bashar jaiy

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
mulk ke rahbaron ki koi dekhe kaisi ghaflat-shuaari hai
naadim hai har fard ka chehra hind ki yeh sharmsaari hai
lekin voh hain ke ab bhi jinko ‘kursi’ zyaada pyaari hai

nafraton ke baazar maen pyaar ka sikka chalta nahi
in be-chiraghaan galiyon maen ek diya bhi jalta nahi
har shaks hai sehma sehma sa, baher koi nikalta nahi
jab zameer hi so gaya ho phir ehsaas machalta nahi

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
farq insaanon maen jo kare laanat voh siyasat-daari hai
mehfooz nahi koi iski girift se kaisi ye fitnakaari hai
bakhsha nahi jisne ‘gandhi’ ko kya bisaat meri tumhaari hai

hai kaun zimmedaar iska aakhir ye kis ki zimmedaari hai
apni hi kotaahiyon ka sabab tung nazari ye hamaari hai

woh phool si muskurahat merey liye hoti
woh masoom shararat merey liye hoti
main us zulf ki chaaon main soo jaata
woh kaali raat merey liye hoti
raat bhar woh ghomaati apna kangan
woh bechayni woh betaabi merey liye hoti
woh ek taara tha khuley aasmaan main
aey kaash woh roshni merey liye hoti
merey wujood main bhi zindagi ka suraagh milta
jo woh munawar nazar merey liye hoti
rishtaa kuch to ban jaata apna bhi
mohabbat nahi na sahi,nafrat merey liye hoti

Kitna dard hai chupa iss dil main
kitni ahey hain in sansoon main
kitney ansoo hain rakhye ankhon main
kitni tarap hai meri ahoon main

Tum kabhe nahi samjh sakoo gey

mery karb main guzri raton ko
un lamho ki yadoon ko
jo na ki kabhe main ney woh sabhe
baton aur wadoo ko

Tum kabhe nahi samjh sakoo gey

dil ka tootna kiya hota hai
kisi ka bicharna kiya hota hia
kabhe milker bhe na mila kiya hota hai
tanhai ka ghum kiya hota hia

Tum kabhe nahi samajh paoogey

Tanha rehna kiya hota hia
khuch paker khona kiya hota hia
naam palko ka anso kiya hota hia

Tum kabhe nahi samajh paoogey…

Sahil ki na main han hota hia
Uss ki dharkan ka rukna kiya hota hia
Kisi ka pehla piyar kiya hota hia

Tum kabhe nahi samjh paogey…..

Mouflisi ka rona kiya hota hia
dard ka sehna kiya hota hai
khamosh rehna kiya hota hai…….

Tum kabhe nahe samajh paogey ………..

Ik Diya Hoon

Taiz Hawaon Kai Jhonkon Sai
Bus Bujhe Giya Hoon

Mai Jalraha Tha Barsoon Sai
Nibbat Raha Tha Arsoon Sai

Ab Bujhe Giya Hoon
Haan Ik Diya Hoon

Jalta Tha To Roshni Thi
Andhairoon Mai Ghir Giya Hoon

Mai Bujhe Giya Hoon
Ik Diya Hoon

Mujhe Sai Wabasta Saatoon Nai
Moon Mujhe Sai Moor Liya Hai

Mairay Andhairoon Ko
Mairay Sang Akaila Chor Diya Hai

Bus Abb Aandhion Ka Intizar Hai
Maira Abb Rahna Baikaar Hai

Mai Bujhe Giya Hoon

Haan Ik Diya Hoon

sham-e-firaq ab na pooch, aaee aur aake dhal gaee,
dil thha ki phir behel gaya, jaaN thhee ki phir sambhal gaeee…

buzm-e- khayalme tere husn ki shamma jal gaee,
dard ka chand bujh gaya, hijr ki raat dhal gaee….

jub tujhe yaad ker liyasubha mehek mehek uthee,
jub tera gamh jaga liya, raat macha machal gaee…

dilse to her mamla ker ke chale thye saf hum,
kehene me unke samne baat badal, badal gaee

Jaach Mainu Aa Gayee, Gham Khaan Di,
Hole Hole Ro Ke Je Bharchan Di,

Changa Hoya Tu Paraya Ho Gayo,
Much Gayi Chinta Tenu Apnan Di,

Marte Jaan Par Daar Hai, Damma Waleyo,
Dhart Wi Bikdi Hai, Mulh Sham Shan Di,

Na Karo Shiv Di Udassi Da Ilaaj,
Rone Di Marji Hai Aaj Beyman Di
