Ghazal Shayari & Poetry

فرش مے خانہ پہ جلتے چلے جاتے ہیں چراغ
دیدنی ہے تری آہستہ روی اے ساقی

फर्श में खाना पकाते चले जाते हैं दीपक
तेरी आहिस्ता रूहानी रूप है, हे साकी, तेरा दर्शन।

Farsh-e-mai-ḳhana pe jalte chale jaate hain charagh
Didani hai teri ahista-ravi ai saaqi

The lamps keep burning on the kitchen floor,
O Saki, I seek thy gentle face once more.

اگر اہل دل شمعِ شبستانِ وفا ہوں
تو فروغِ ہمتِ ساقیٔ کوثر نہ پوچھ

Agar ahle-dil shama-e-shabistan-e-wafa hun
To furogh-e-himmat-e-saqi-e-kausar na pooch

If I am a candle of the garden of faithfulness,
Do not ask the light of the courage of the cup-bearer of Kausar.

अगर आहल-दिल शमा-ए शबस्तान-ए वफ़ा हूँ
तो फ़ुरोग़-ए हिम्मत-ए साक़ी-ए कौसर न पूछ

Wo Phool kehta tha mujh ko
Kushbu kehta tha khud ko
Murjha gya wo mujh ko
Hawaon me phala kr khud ko
Wo Jism kehta tha mujh ko
Ruh kehta tha khud ko.
Wo Juda kr gya khud ko
Mar gya wo mujh ko
Parwana kehta tha mujh ko
Shama kehta tha khud ko
Roshan kar k khud ko
Jala gya wo mujh ko

Mujhey fan-e- shaa’eri se na koi shuhrat chahiyeh
Mere ash’aar mein na wazn wo bahr se nusrat chahiyeh.
Koi dooba hai aalam-e-afkaar wo tasawwuraat mein
Main duur hi sahih mujhey na wahshat chahiyeh
Koi pareshaan hai apne naqis khwaabon ko lekar
Mera kalaam hai saada mujhey sirf sadaqat chahiyeh.
Suna hai hum ne bhi mashoor shaairon ki zubaani
Un jaisa hum ko na naamwaree wo wajaahat chahiyeh
Sukhan wo paigaam apna hai auron se mukhtalif
Baat hai haqq ki phir hum ko haqeeqat chahiyeh.
Gamgeen ghazlon wo gumraah nagmon se kya waasta
Hum ko apni nafs ki lagzishon se na koi illat chahiyeh
Kaise kaise hain bikhrey huwe khayalaat ki waadiyaan
Isi liye hum ko bad-kalaami se na koi zillat chahiyeh.
Ya Rabb! Koi marsiya se to koi junoon se taar-taar hai
Hum ko raah-e-raast se faqat achchi aaqibat chahiyeh
Be-tukee shaa’eri se  to behtar hai ash’aar-e-hikmat
Saadiq alfaaz ki rawaanee se hum ko nisbat chahiyeh.

Woh Ishq Jo Hum Se Rooth Gaya,
Ab Uska Haal Batayein Kia ?
Ek Aag Gham e Tanhai Ki
Jo Saare Badan Mein Phail Gayi,
Jab Jism Hee Saara Jalta Ho,
Phir Daman e Dil Ko Bachayein Kia

Dil daagdaar hai apni hi andhi rawish se
Nifaaq hai ajab sa har galat khwahish se
Akhlaaq ke na hone mein hai sab fasaad
Shararat hai shaitaani kaise har saazish se
Shubhaat se afsaane tafraqa se kasheedgi
Tamashaa hai barham har ek ranjish se.
Zehno’n mein bigaad ho to kya kiya jaye
Har gunah uljhaaye hai apni kashish se
Kis se puchey ab kisi ko kaise samjhaa’en
Har ek ka aalam hai apni apni gardish se.
Laa-ilmi se jahalat aur guroor se hai ana
Fitna hi fitna hai yahan har ek lagzish se
Khutbaat apni jagah vaaiz ka kya qusoor
Sun kar bhi be-asar hai koi apni khalish se.

Pathar Tha, Magar Baraf Ke Gaalon Ki Tarah Tha
Ek Shaks Andheron Mein Ujaalon Ki Tarah Tha
Khawabon Ki Tarah Tha, Na Khayalon Ki Tarah Tha
Woh Ilm e Riazi Ke Sawalon Ki Tarah Tha
Ulja Huya Aesa, Ke Kabhi Khul Nahi Paaya
Sulja Huya Aesa, Ke Misalon Ki Tarah Tha
Woh Mil Toh Gaya Lekin Apna Bhi Muqaddar
Shatranj Ki Ulji Huyi Chaalon Ki Tarah Tha
Wo Rooh Mein Khushbu Ki Tarah Ho Gaya Tahleel
Jo Dur Bohat Chand Ke Haalon Ki Tarah Tha

Jab Se Tu Amil e Farmooda e Islaf Nahi
Naam Insaf Ka Baqi Hai Per Insaf Nahi
Zarb e Shamsheer, Baja! Nara e Takbeer Darust
Sab Hai! Bus Tujh Mein Mujahid Se Woh Ausaf Nahi
Kya Bahana Hai Mere Qalb Ko Thukrane Ka
Kirchiyan Dekh Ke Kehte Hain Ke Shafaaf Nahi
Ya Khuda! Umat e Ahmed Bhi Wohi Tu Bhi Wohi
Kya Sabab Hai Ke Woh Pehle Ke Se Altaf Nahi
Aah! Yeh Ishq Bhi Kasa Hai Tera Jis Mein ‘Shakeeb’
Ishq Ka Aieen Nahi Sheen Nahi Qaaf Nahi

Yaqeen Aata Nahi Dil Ko Ke Aesa Ho Bhi Sakta Hai
Mera Hal e Gham Sun Kar Woh Zalim Ro Bhi Sakta Hai
Kabhi Insan Akela Ho Ke Bhi Tanha Nahi Hota
Sar e Mehfil Kabhi Bethe Bithaye Kho Bhi Sakta Hai
Ta’ajjub Kyun Hai Tum Ko Meri Be Gunahi Per
Karam Ka Aik Qatra Dagh e Daman Dho Bhi Sakta Hai
Kabhi Insan Ko Neend Aati Nahi Phoolon Ke Bistar Per
Kabhi Pathar Pe Sar Rakh Kar Maze Se Soh Bhi Sakta Hai
Woh Kehta Hai Tumhari Khatir Sitare Tor Launga
Ba Zahir Yun Nahi Hota Magar Yun Ho Bhi Sakta Hai

Koi Toh Hai Jiska Iss Dil Ko Intezar Hai,
Khayalon Mein Bus Ussi Ka Khayal Hai,
Khushiyan Main Saari Uss Per Luta Dun,
Chahat Mein Uski Main Khud Ko Mita Dun,
Kab Aayega Woh Jiska Iss Dil Ko Intezar Hai
