THE POET

Sahil-E-Darya Pe Main Ek Raat Tha Mehv-E-Nazar

Gosha-E-Dil Mein Chupaye Ek Jahan-E-Iztaraab

Shab Sakoot Afza, Hawa Asoodah, Darya Naram Sair

Thi Nazar Heeran Ke Ye Darya Hai Ya Tasveer-E-Aab

Jaise Gehware Mein So Jata Hai Tifle-E-Sheer Khawaar

Mouj-E-Muztar Thi Kahin Gehraiyon Mein Mast-E-Khawab

Raat Ke Ufsoon Se Tair Ashiyanon Mein Aseer

Anjum-E-Kam Zou Giraftar-E-Tilism-E-Mahtab

Dekhta Kya Hun Ke Woh Paik-E-Jahan Peyma Khizar

Jis Ki Peeri Mein Hai Manind-E-Sahar Rang-E-Shabab

Keh Raha Mujh Se, Ae Joya’ay Asrar-E-Azal!

Chashm-E-Dil Wa Ho To Hai Taqdeer-E-Alam Behijab

Dil Mein Ye Sun Kar Bapa Hangama’ay Mehshar Huwa

Main Shaheed-E-Justujoo Tha, Yun Sukhan-E-Gastar Huwa

Ae Teri Chashme-E-Jahan Been Par Woh Toofan Ashkar

Jin Ke Hangame Abhi Darya Mein Sote Hain Khamosh

‘Kashti-E-Miskeen’-O-‘Jaan-E-Paak’-O-‘Diwar-E-Yateem’

Ilm-E-Musa (A.S.) Bhi Hai Tere Samne Hairat Farosh

Chorh Kar Abadiyan Rehta Hai Tu Sehra Naward

Zindagi Teri Hai Be Roz-O-Shab-O-Farda-O-Dosh

Zindagi Ka Raaz Kya Hai, Saltanat Kya Cheez Hai

Aur Ye Sarmaya-O-Mehnat Mein Hai Kaisa Kharosh

Ho Rahah Hai Asia Ka Kharqa-E-Dairina Chaak

Naujawan Aqwam-E-Nau Doulat Ke Hain Peraya Posh

Garcha Iskandar Raha Mehroom-E-Aab-E-Zindagi

Fitrat-E-Iskandari Ab Tak Hai Garam-E-Nao’ay Nosh

Baichta Hai Hashmi Namoos-E-Deen-E-Mustafa (S.A.W.)

Khak-O-Khoon Mein Mil Raha Hai Turkaman-E-Sakht Kosh

Aag Hai, Aulad-E-Ibraheem (A.S.) Hai, Namrood Hai

Kya Kisi Ko Phir Kisi Ka Imtihaan Maqsood Hai !

Tyrants and flames once more on Abraham’s race have glared:

For whom this new ordeal, or by whose hand prepared?

Jawab-e-Khizar

KHIZR’S REPLY

Sehra Nawardi

Desert‐roaming

Kyun Taajub Hai Meri Sehra Nawardi Par Tujhe

Ye Taga Pooye Dama Dam Zindagi Ki Hai Daleel

Ae Raheen-E-Khana Tu Ne Woh Saman Dekha Nahin

Goonjti Hai Jab Faza’ay Dasht Mein Bang-E-Raheel

Rait Ke Teele Pe Woh Aaho Ka Be Parwa Kharaam

Woh Hazar Be Barg-O-Saman, Woh Safar Be Sang-O-Meel

Woh Namood-E-Akhtar-E-Simab Pa Hangam-E-Subah

Ya Numayan Baam-E-Gardoon Se Jibeen-E-Jibraeel (A.S.)

Woh Sakoot-E-Sham-E-Sehra Mein Gharoob-E-Aftab

Jis Se Roshan Tar Huwi Chashm-E-Jahan Been-E-Khalil (A.S.)

Aur Woh Pani Ke Chashme Par Maqam-E-Karwan

Ahl-E-Aeeman Jis Tarah Jannat Mein Gird-E-Salsabeel

Taza Weerane Ki Soda’ay Mohabbat Ko Talash

Aur Abadi Mein Tu Zanjeeri Kisht-O-Nakheel

Pukhta Tar Hai Gardish-E-Peham Se Jaam-E-Zindagi

Hai Yehi Ae Be-Khabar Raaz-E-Dawam-E-Zindagi

Zindagi

LIFE

Bartar Az Andesha’ay Sood-O-Ziyan Hai Zindagi

Hai Kabhi Jaan Aur Kabhi Tasleem-E-Jaan Hai Zindagi

Tu Isse Pemana’ay Amroz-O-Farda Se Na Naap

Javidan, Peham Dawan, Har Dam Jawan Hai Zindagi

Apni Dunya Ap Paida Kar Agar Zindon Mein Hai

Sirr-E-Adam Hai, Zameer-E-Kun Fikan Hai Zindagi

Zindagani Ki Haqiqat Kohkan Ke Dil Se Pooch

Jooye Sheer-O-Teesha-O-Sang-E-Garan Hai Zindagi

Bandagi Mein Ghat Ke Reh Jati Hai Ek Jooay Kam Aab

Aur Azadi Mein Beher-E-Bekaran Hai Zindagi

Ashkara Hai Ye Apni Quwwat-E-Taskheer Se

Gharche Ek Mitti Ke Paikar Mein Nihan Hai Zindagi

Qulzam-E-Hasti Se Tu Ubhra Hai Manind-E-Habab

Iss Ziyan Khane Mein Tera Imtihan Hai Zindagi

Kham Hai Jab Tak To Hai Mitti Ka Ek Anbar Tu

Pukhta Ho Jaye To Hai Shamsheer-E-Bezanhar Tu

Ho Sadaqat Ke Liye Jis Dil Mein Marne Ki Tarap

Pehle Apne Paikar-E-Khaki Mein Jaan Paida Kare

Phoonk Dale Ye Zameen-O-Asman-E-Mastaar

Aur Khakstar Se Ap Apna Jahan Paida Kare

Zindagi Ki Quwwat-E-Pinhan Ko Kar De Ashakar

Ta Ye Chingari Furogh-E-Javidan Paida Kare

Khak-E-Mashriq Par Chamak Jaye Misal-E-Aftab

Ta Badkhishan Phir Wohi Laal-E-Giran Paida Kare

Suay Gardoon Nala-E-Shabgeer Ka Bheje Safeer

Raat Ke Taron Mein Apne Raazdan Paida Kare

Ye Ghari Mehshar Ki Hai, Tu Arsa’ay Mehshar Mein Hai

Paish Kar Ghafil, Amal Koi Agar Daftar Mein Hai

Saltanat

The State

Aa Bataon Tujh Ko Ramz-E-Aaya-E-INNAL MULOOK

Saltanat Aqwam-E-Ghalib Ki Hai Ek Jadoogari

Khawab Se Baidar Hota Hai Zara Mehkoom Agar

Phir Sula Deti Hai Uss Ko Hukamran Ki Sahiri

Jadoo-E-Mehmood Ki Taseer Se Chashm-E-Ayaz

Dekhti Hai Halqa-E-Gardan Mein Saaz-E-Dilbari

Khoon-E-Israel Aa Jata Hai Akhir Josh Mein

Torh Deta Hai Koi Musa (A.S.) Tilism-E-Samri

Sarwari Zaiba Faqat Uss Zaat-E-Be Hamta Ko Hai

Hukamran Hai Ek Wohi, Baqi Bootan-E-Azri

Az Ghulami Fitrat-E-Azad Ra Ruswa Makun

Ta Tarashi Khawajah Ae Az Barhaman Kafir Teri

Hai Wohi Saaz-E-Kuhan Maghrib Ka Jamhoori Nazam

Jis Ke Pardon Mein Nahin Ghair Az Nawa’ay Qaisari

Deo Istabdad Jamhoori Qba Mein Paye Koob

Tu Samjhta Hai Ye Azadi Ki Hai Neelam Pari

Majlis-E-Aaeen-O-Islah-O-Ra’ayaat-O-Haqooq

Tib-E-Maghrib Mein Maze Mithe, Asar Khawab Awri

Garmi-E-Ghuftar-E-Aza’ay Majaalis, Al-Aman

Ye Bhi Ek Sarmaya Daron Ki Hai Jang-E-Zargari

Iss Sarab-E-Rang-O-Bu Ko Gulistan Samjha Hai Tu

Aah Ae Nadad! Qafas Ko Ashiyan Samjha Hai Tu

Sarmaya-O-Mehnat

Capital and Labour

Banda’ay Mazdoor Ko Ja Kar Mera Pegham De

Khizar Ka Pegham Kya, Hai Ye Peyam-E-Kainat

Ae Ke Tujh Ko Kha Gya Sarmayadar-E-Heela Gar

Shakh-E-Aahu Par Rahi Sadiyon Talak Teri Barat

Dast-E-Doulat Afreen Ko Muzd Yun Milti Rahi

Ehl-E-Sarwat Jaise Dete Hain Gharibon Ko Zakat

Sahir-E-Muut Ne Tujh Ko Diya Barg-E-Hasheesh

Aur Tu Ae Bekhabar Samjha Isse Shakh-E-Nabat

Nasal, Qoumiat, Kalisa, Saltanat, Tehzeeb, Rang

Khawajgi Ne Khoob Chun Chun Ke Banaye Muskirat

Kat Mara Nadan Khiyali Deota’on Ke Liye

Sukr Ki Lazzat Mein Tu Lutwa Gya Naqd-E-Hayat

Makr Ki Chalon Se Bazi Le Gya Sarmayadar

Intaha’ay Sadgi Se Kha Gya Mazdoor Maat

Uth Ke Ab Bazm-E-Jahan Ka Aur Hi Andaz Hai

Mashriq-O-Maghrib Mein Tere Dour Ka Aghaz Hai

Himat-E-Aali To Darya Bhi Nahin Karti Qabool

Ghuncha Saan Ghafil Tere Daman Mein Shabnam Kab Talak

Naghma’ay Baidari-E-Jamhoor Hai Saman-E-Aysh

Qissa’ay Khawab Awar-E-Iskandar-O-Jim Kab Talak

Aftab-E-Taza Paida Batan-E-Geeti Se Huwa

Asman! Doobe Huay Taron Ka Matam Kab Talak

Torh Dalain Fitrat-E-Insan Ne Zanjeerain Tamam

Doori Jannat Se Roti Chasm-E-Adam Kab Talak

Baghban-E-Chara Farma Se Ye Kehti Hai Bahar

Zakhm-E-Gul Ke Waste Tadbeer-E-Marham Kab Talak

Karmak-E-Nadan! Tawaf-E-Shama Se Azad Ho

Apni Fitrat Ke Tajalli Zaar Mein Abad Ho

Dunya-e-Islam

The World of Islam

Kya Sunata Hai Mujhe Turk-O-Arabki Dastan

Mujh Se Kuch Pinhan Nahin Islamiyon Ka Souz-O-Saaz

Le Gye Taslees Ke Farzand Meeras-E-Khalil (A.S.)

Khisht-E-Bunyad-E-Kalisa Ban Gyi Khak-E-Hijaz

Ho Gyi Ruswa Zamane Mein Kulah-E-Lala Rang

Jo Sarapa Naz The, Hain Aaj Majboor-E-Niaz

Le Raha Hai Mai Faroshaan-E-Farangistan Se Paras

Woh Mai’ay Sarkash Hararat Jis Ki Hai Meena Gudaz

Hikmat-E-Maghrib Se Millat Ki Ye Kaifiyat Huwi

Tukre Tukre Jis Tarah Sone Ko Kar Deta Hai Gaaz

Ho Gya Manind-E-Aab Arzaan Musalman Ka Lahoo

Muztarib Hai Tu Ke Tera Dil Nahin Dana’ay Raaz

Guft Rumi “Har Banaye Kuhna Ka Badaan Kunand”

Mee Nadani Awal Aan Bunyad Ra Weeran Kunand”

Mulk Haathon Se Gya Millat Ki Aankhain Khul Gayin

Haq Tera Chashme Atta Kar Dast Ghafil Dar Nagar

Moumiyai Ki Gadai Se To Behter Hai Shikast

Moor-e-Be Par! Hajatay Paish-e-Sulimanay Mabar

Rabt-o-Zabt-e-Millat-e-Baiza Hai Mashriq Ki Nijaat

Asia Wale Hain Iss Nukte Se Ab Tak Be-Khabar

Phir Siasat Chorh Kar Dakhil Hisar-e-Deen Mein Ho

Mulk-o-Doulat Hai Faqat Hifz-e-Haram Ka Ek Samar

Aik Hon Muslim Haram Ki Pasbani Ke Liye

Neel Ke Sahil Se Le Kar Ta Bakhak-e-Kashghar

Jo Kare Ga Imtiaz-e-Rang-o-Khoon, Mit Jaye Ga

Turk-e-Khargahi Ho Ya Araabi Wala Guhar

Nasal Agar Muslim Ki Mazhab Par Muqadam Ho Gyi

Urh Gya Dunya Se Tu Manind-E-Khak-E-Reh Guzar

Ta Khilafat Ki Bina Dunya Mein Ho Phir Ustawar

La Kahin Se Dhoond Kar Aslaaf Ka Qalb-O-Jigar

Ae Ke Nashna See Khafi Ra Az Jali Hushyar Bash

Ae Giraftar-E-Abubakr (R.A.)-O-Ali (R.A.) Hushyar Bash

Ishq Ko Faryad Lazim Thi So Woh Bhi Ho Chuki

Ab Zara Dil Thaam Kar Faryad Ki Taseer Dekh

Tu Ne Dekha Satwat-E-Raftar-E-Darya Ka Urooj

Mouj-E-Muztar Kis Tarah Banti Hai Ab Zanjeer Dekh

Aam Huriyat Ka Jo Dekha Tha Khawab Islam Ne

Ae Musalman Aaj Tu Uss Khawab Ki Tabeer Dekh

Apni Khakstar Samundar Ko Hai Saman-E-Wujood

Mar Ke Phir Hota Hai Ye Jahan-E-Peer, Dekh

Khol Kar Ankhain Mere Ayna-E-Guftar Mein

Ane Wale Dour Ki Dhundli Si Ek Tasveer Dekh

Azmudah Fitna Hai Ek Aur Bhi Gardoon Ke Pas

Samne Taqdeer Ke Ruswayi-E-Tadbeer Dekh

Muslim Asti Seena Ra Az Arzoo Abad Dar

Har Zaman Paish-E-Nazar ‘La Yukhalif Ul Meead’ Dar
