Yeh Kaunsa Farishta Hai

Falak-shigaaf naaron se shaHr goonj uttha hai,

Shor ke ta-aqub mein karwan gurezan hai
Shola-bar hain aankhen, kaarwan ke meeron ki,
Tez, tund aawazein,  jaise jashn jaari hai
 

Karwan se kuch peeche, aalimon  ka ek lashkar,

Cheekh kar ye kehta hai, ‘Ek farishta aaya hai’
Uske paas quwwat hai, uske paas daulat hai,
Taqdeer ko badalne ki tadbeer usko aati hai

Apni aql-o-hikmat se  mulk ko badal dega,

Bhook aur gharibi ko paaon se kuchal dega

Cheen aur America aake sar jhukayenge,

Ma-ashiyat to aasan hai, maashraH badal dega

Ek ajab si dahshat hai, door choti basti mein,

Khamoshi ki aawazein khauf se larazti hain

Raat ki siyah chadar aansuon se bheengi hai,

Kahin kahin andhere mein raushani chamakti hai

Jashn-o-sog ka manzar ek sawal karta hai,

‘Khauf’ aur ‘Farishte’ mein shayad koi rishta hai

Ek taraf chiraghan hai, hai doosri taraf matam,

Yeh kaunsa farishta hai, woh kaunsi qyamat hai

Hairan in sawalon se, main qaafle mein ja pahuncha,

Dekh ke saham uttha, Tasweer unke haaton mein

Yeh shanasa chehra to zulm ka paymaber hai,

Uske qaHr ke qisse qaid hain samaa-aT mein

Raaz khul gaya mujh per us andheri basti ka,

Mufakkiron ki khamoshi, aalimon ki sazish ka                
Kahani qalam walon ki, sarmayadaron ke qaseeda ka,
Jawanan-e-watan ke josh ka, jazbon ka, naaron ka

 

Eid ka Tuhfa

Gham  ke Gahre Kaajal ko ab Poch do Apni Aankhon se,

Khwabon ke Zarrreen Tasht Sajakar, Eid ke Tohfe laya Hoon

Arman ke Zamurrad hain is mein, Hasrat ke Guhar bhi rekhe hain,

Ummid ke Yqooti Heere , kuch Gehne Azm-e-Safar ke bhi

Yeh Maddham Rang Udasi ka Afsha hai Tumhare Chehre per,

Indoho-o-Alam ki Parchayee Raqsan hai Peshani per

Khushiyon ke Damakte Taaron ko main Mutthi mein Bhar laya hoon,

Masoom Hansi in Honton ki, Wapas Dhoond ke laya Hoon

Yeh zulf-e-Parishan Shanon per kuch Uljhi si, kuch Bikhri si,

Bejaan  latein hain Aariz per, Andeshon se Sahmi Sahmi si

Baadal ki Ghtaon se maine tere Gesu ki Siyahi maangi hai,

Mehtab ki Rakhshan Kirnon se, Tab-o-Tadap bhi laaya hoon

Leghzish yeh Tumhare Haathon mein, kisi Fikr ki Saazish hai Shayad,

Hain  Wahm-o-Guman ke Sangon se  Majrooh tumhare  Paeenda Qadam

Hauslon ke Aahni Teeshon ko main Saath mein lekar aaya  hoon,

In Sangon ko Mismaar Karo, in Fikron ko Paemaal  karo

Is Eid pe aao Azm karein, ek aise Jaahan ka nazm karein,

JahaN Tarab ki Baala-dasti ho, Ummid ki har soo khushboo ho

Yaqeen ka Parcham lahraye, Azmon ke Sharare Ithlayein,

Mushkil hai Magar imkaan to hai, is Jahan pe mera Eimaan to hai
