Zameen di hai to thoda sa aasman bhi de,
Mere khuda mere hone ka kuchh gumaan bhi de,
Bana ke but mujhe binaai ka azaab na de,
Ye hi azaab hai qismat to phir zabaan bhi de,
Ye kaayenat ka phailaaw to bahut kam hai,
Jahaan sama sake tanhaai wo makaan bhi de,
Main apne aap se kab tak kiya karun baatein,
Meri zabaan ko bhi koi tarjumaan bhi de,
Falak ko chaand-sitaare nawaazne waale,
Mujhe charaagh jalaane ko sayebaan bhi de.!!

Ye na poochho ke waqia kya hai,
Kis ki nazron ka zawiya kya hai,
Sab hain masroof kaun batlaaye,
Aadmi ka ata-pata kya hai,
Chalta jaata hai karwaan-e-hayat,
Ibtida kya hai intiha kya hai,
Jo kitaabon mein hai wo sab ka hai,
Tu bata tera tajraba kya hai,
Kaun rukhsat hua khudaai se,
Har taraf ye khuda khuda kya hai.!!

Ye kaisi kashmakash hai zindagi mein,
Kisi ko dhundhte hain hum kisi mein,
Jo kho jaata hai mil kar zindagi mein,
Ghazal hai naam us ka shaairi mein,
Nikal aate hain aansu hanste hanste,
Ye kis ghum ki kasak hai har khushi mein,
Kahin chehra kahin aankhein kahin lab,
Hamesha ek milta hai kayi mein,
Chamakti hai andheron mein khamoshi,
Sitaare toot te hain raat hi mein,
Sulagti ret mein paani kahaan tha,
Koi baadal chhupa tha tishnagi mein,
Bahut mushkil hai banjara-mizaaji,
Saleeqa chahiye aawargi mein.!!

Yaqeen chaand pe suraj mein aitebaar bhi rakh,
Magar nigaah mein thoda sa intizaar bhi rakh,
Khuda ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko,
Badalte waqt pe kuchh apna ikhtiyaar bhi rakh,
Ye hi lahu hai shahadat ye hi lahu paani,
Khizaan naseeb sahi zehn mein bahaar bhi rakh,
Gharon ke taaqon mein gul-daste yun nahin sajte,
Jahaan hain phool wahin aas-paas khaar bhi rakh,
Pahaad goonjein nadi gaaye ye zaroori hai,
Safar kahin ka ho dil mein kisi ka pyaar bhi rakh.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Waqt banjara-sifat lamha ba lamha apna,
Kis ko maloom yahaan kaun hai kitna apna,
Jo bhi chaahe wo bana le use apne jaisa,
Kisi aaine ka hota nahin chehra apna,
Khud se milne ka chalan aam nahin hai warna,
Apne andar hi chhupa hota hai rasta apna,
Yun bhi hota hai wo khoobi jo hai hum se mansoob,
Us ke hone mein nahin hota iraada apna,
Khat ke aakhir mein sabhi yun hi raqam karte hain,
Us ne rasman hi likha hoga tumhaara apna.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Us ke dushman hain bahut aadmi achchha hoga,
Wo bhi meri hi tarah shahar mein tanha hoga,
Itna sach bol ki honthon ka tabassum na bujhe,
Raushni khatm na kar aage andhera hoga,
Pyaas jis nahr se takraai wo banjar nikli,
Jis ko peechhe kahin chhorh aaye wo dariya hoga,
Mere baare mein koi raaye to hogi us ki,
Us ne mujh ko bhi kabhi tod ke dekha hoga,
Ek mahfil mein kayi mahfilein hoti hain shareek,
Jis ko bhi paas se dekhoge akela hoga.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Tu qareeb aaye to qurbat ka yun izhaar karun,
Aaina saamne rakh kar tera deedar karun,
Saamne tere karun haar ka apni elaan,
Aur akele mein teri jeet se inkaar karun
Pahle sochun use phir us ki banaaun tasveer,
Aur phir us mein hi paida dar-o-deewar karun,
Mere qabze mein na mitti hai na baadal na hawa,
Phir bhi chahat hai ki har shaakh samar-baar karun,
Subah hote hi ubhar aati hai salim ho kar,
Wahi deewar jise roz main mismaar karun.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Tanha hue kharaab hue aaina hue,
Chaaha tha aadmi banein lekin khuda hue,
Jab tak jiye bikharte rahe toot te rahe,
Hum saans saans qarz ki surat ada hue,
Hum bhi kisi kamaan se nikle the teer se,
Ye aur baat hai ke nishaane khata hue,
Pur-shor raaston se guzarna muhaal tha,
Hat kar chale to aap hi apne saza hue..!!
"Nida Fazli"
Talaash kar na zameen aasman se baahar,
Nahin hai raah koi is makaan se baahar,
Bas ek do hi qadam aur the safar waale,
Thakaan dekh na paai thakaan se baahar,
Nisaab darja-ba-darja yun hi badalta hai,
Hua na koi bhi imtihaan se baahar,
Usi ki justuju aksar udaas karti hai,
Wo ek jahaan jo hai har jahaan se baahar,
Namaziyon se kaho dekhein chaand-suraj ko,
Nikal rahe hain muazzin azaan se baahar.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Safar ko jab bhi kisi dastaan mein rakhna,
Qadam yaqeen mein manzil gumaan mein rakhna,
Jo saath hai wahi ghar ka naseeb hai lekin,
Jo kho gaya hai use bhi makaan mein rakhna,
Jo dekhti hain nigaahein wahi nahin sab kuchh,
Ye ahtiyaat bhi apne bayaan mein rakha,
Wo ek khwaab jo chehra kabhi nahin banta,
Bana ke chaand use aasman mein rakhna,
Chamakte chaand-sitaaron ka kya bharosa hai,
Zameen ki dhoil bhi apni udaan mein rakhna.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Raat ke baad naye din ki sahar aayegi,
Din nahin badlega tareekh badal jayegi,
Hanste hanste kabhi thak jaao to chhup ke ro lo,
Ye hansi bheeg ke kuchh aur chamak jayegi,
Jagmagati hui sadkon pe akele na phiro,
Shaam aayegi kisi mod pe das jayegi,
Aur kuchh der yunhi jang siyasat mazhab,
Aur thak jaao abhi neend kahaan aayegi,
Meri ghurbat ko sharafat ka abhi naam na de,
Waqt badla to teri raaye badal jayegi,
Waqt nadiyon ko uchhaale ke udaaye parbat,
Umr ka kaam guzarna hai guzar jayegi.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Nazdeekiyon mein door ka manzar talaash kar,
Jo haath mein nahin hai wo patthar talaash kar,
Suraj ke ird-gird bhatakne se faayeda,
Dariya hua hai gum to samundar talaash kar,
Tareekh mein mahal bhi hai haakim bhi takht bhi,
Gumnaam jo hue hain wo lashkar talaash kar,
Rahta nahin hai kuchh bhi yahaan ek sa sada,
Darwaza ghar ka khol ke phir ghar talaash kar,
Koshish bhi kar ummeed bhi rakh raasta bhi chun,
Phir is ke baad thoda muqaddar talaash kar.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Na jaane kaun sa manzar nazar mein rahta hai,
Tamaam umr musafir safar mein rahta hai,
Ladaai dekhe hue dushmanon se mumkin hai,
Magar wo khauf jo deewar-o-dar mein rahta hai,
Khuda to maalik-o-mukhtaar hai kahin bhi rahe,
Kabhi bashar mein kabhi jaanwar mein rahta hai,
Ajeeb daur hai ye tay-shuda nahin kuchh bhi,
Na chaand shab mein na suraj sahar mein rahta hai,
Jo milna chaho to mujh se milo kahin baahar,
Wo koi aur hai jo mere ghar mein rahta hai,
Badalna chaaho to duniya badal bhi sakti hai,
Ajab fitoor sa har waqt sar mein rahta hai.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Munh ki baat sune har koi dil ke dard ko jaane kaun,
Aawazon ke bazaaron mein khamoshi pahchaane kaun,
Sadiyon sadiyon wahi tamasha rasta rasta lambi khoj,
Lekin jab hum mil jaate hain kho jaata hai jaane kaun,
Wo meri parchhaai hai ya main us ka aaina hun,
Mere hi ghar mein rahta hai mujh jaisa hi jaane kaun,
Jaane kya kya bol raha tha sarhad, pyaar, kitaabein, khoon,
Kal meri neendon mein chhup kar jaag raha tha jaane kaun,
Kiran kiran alsaata suraj palak palak khulti neendein,
Dheeme dheeme bikhar raha hai zarra zarra jaane kaun.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Mohabbat mein wafadaari se bachiye,
Jahaan tak ho adakaari se bachiye,
Har ek surat bhali lagti hai kuchh din,
Kahu ki sho'abda-kaari se bachiye,
Sharafat, aadamiyat, dard-mandi,
Bade shahron mein beemari se bachiye,
Zaroori kya har ek mahfil mein baithein,
Takalluf ki rawa-daari se bachiye,
Bina pairon ke sar chalte nahin hain,
Buzurgon ki samajhdaari se bachiye.!!

Sho'abda-kaari = jugglery,
Kuch bhi bacha na kahne ko har baat ho gayi,
Aao kahin sharaab piyein raat ho gayi,
Phir yun hua ke waqt ka paasa palat gaya,
Ummeed jeet ki thi magar maat ho gayi,
Suraj ko chonch mein liye murgha khada raha,
Khidki ke parde kheench diye raat ho gayi,
Wo aadmi tha kitna bhala kitna pur-khuloos,
Us se bhi aaj lijiye mulaqaat ho gayi,
Raste mein wo mila tha main bach kar guzar gaya,
Us ki phati qamees mere saath ho gayi,
Naqsha utha ke koi naya shahar dhundhiye,
Is shahar mein to sab se mulaqaat ho gayi.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Koshish ke bawajood ye ilzaam rah gaya,
Har kaam mein hamesha koi kaam rah gaya,
Chhoti thi umr aur fasana taweel tha,
Aaghaaz hi likha gaya anjaam rah gaya,
Uth uth ke masjidon se namazi chale gaye,
Dahshat-garon ke haath mein islam rah gaya,
Us ka qusoor ye tha bahut sochta tha wo, Main
Wo kaamyab ho ke bhi nakaam rah gaya,
Ab kya batayen kaun tha kya tha wo ek shakhs,
Ginti ke chaar harfon ka jo naam rah gaya.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Kabhi kisi ko mukammal jahaan nahin milta,
Kahin zameen kahin aasman nahin milta,
Tamaam shahar mein aisa nahin khuloos na ho,
Jahaan ummeed ho is ki wahaan nahin milta,
Kahaan charagh jalayen kahaan gulaab rakhein,
Chhatein to milti hain lekin makaan nahin milta,
Ye kya azab hai sab apne aap mein gum hain,
Zabaan mili hai magar hum-zabaan nahin milta,
Charagh jalte hain binaai bujhne lagti hai,
Khud apne ghar mein hi ghar ka nishaan nahin milta.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Jo ho ek baar wo har baar ho aisa nahin hota,
Hamesha ek hi se pyaar ho aisa nahin hota,
Har ek kashti ka apna tajraba hota hai dariya mein,
Safar mein roz hi manjdhaar ho aisa nahin hota,
Kahani mein to kirdaaron ko jo chaahe bana dijiye,
Haqeeqat bhi kahani-kaar ho aisa nahin hota,
Kahin to koi hoga jis ko apni bhi zaroorat ho,
Har ek baazi mein dil ki haar ho aisa nahin hota,
Sikha deti hain chalna thokarein bhi rahgeeron ko,
Koi rasta sada dushwaar ho aisa nahin hota.!!
"Nida Fazli"
Jab se qareeb ho ke chale zindagi se hum,
Khud apne aaine ko lage ajnabi se hum,
Kuchh door chal ke raaste sab ek se lage,
Milne gaye kisi se mil aaye kisi se hum,
Achchhe bure ke farq ne basti ujaad di,
Majboor ho ke milne lage har kisi se hum,
Shaaista mahfilon ki fazaon mein zahar tha,
Zinda bache hain zehn ki aawargi se hum,
Achchhi bhali thi duniya guzaare ke waaste,
Uljhe hue hain apni hi khud-aagahi se hum,
Jangal mein door tak koi dushman na koi dost,
Manoos ho chale hain magar bambai se hum.!!
