ruh-e-taghazzul
maiñ apne qalb meñ jab nūr-e-irfāñ dekh letā huuñ
to har zarra meñ ik ḳhurshīd-e-tābāñ dekh letā huuñ
miTā kar apnī hastī rāh-e-haq meñ khul ga.iiñ āñkheñ
ki mar kar zindagī kā rāz-e-pinhāñ dekh letā huuñ
haqīqī ishq kā jazba hai dil meñ jis kī barakat se
hayāt aur maut ke asrār-e-uryāñ dekh letā huuñ
kiye haiñ ishq aur ulfat ke saare marhale jab tai
to duniyā bhar kī har mushkil ko āsāñ dekh letā huuñ
chhupā saktā nahīñ tū ḳhud ko mujh se laakh pardoñ meñ
tirī sūrat har ik shai meñ numāyāñ dekh letā huuñ
kahānī kyā sunā.ūñ dil-jaloñ kī ġham ke māroñ kī
ki uThtā chār-sū ik ġham kā tūfāñ dekh letā huuñ
taḌap hai dard hai rañj-o-alam hai be-qarārī hai
ye mulk aur qaum kā hāl-e-pareshāñ dekh letā huuñ
isī pyāre vatan hindostāñ kī ġhair hālat hai
ki jis par ġhair ko bhī aaj nāzāñ dekh letā huuñ
nikaltī hai agar ik aah bhī mazlūm ke dil se
zamīñ se arsh tak har shai ko larzāñ dekh letā huuñ
ghaTā.eñ ġham kī sar par chhā ga.iiñ jo hind vāloñ ke
dar-o-dīvār ko bhārat ke giryāñ dekh letā huuñ
abhī hindostāñ ke din bhale aa.e nahīñ shāyad
ki maiñ laḌte hue hindū musalmāñ dekh letā huuñ
na kyuuñ ai 'āftāb' aa.e nazar ummīd kī sūrat
ki jab taklīf meñ rāhat ke sāmāñ dekh letā huuñ
main apne qalb mein jab nur-e-irfan dekh leta hun
to har zarra mein ek KHurshid-e-taban dekh leta hun
miTa kar apni hasti rah-e-haq mein khul gain aankhen
ki mar kar zindagi ka raaz-e-pinhan dekh leta hun
haqiqi ishq ka jazba hai dil mein jis ki barakat se
hayat aur maut ke asrar-e-uryan dekh leta hun
kiye hain ishq aur ulfat ke sare marhale jab tai
to duniya bhar ki har mushkil ko aasan dekh leta hun
chhupa sakta nahin tu KHud ko mujh se lakh pardon mein
teri surat har ek shai mein numayan dekh leta hun
kahani kya sunaun dil-jalon ki gham ke maron ki
ki uThta chaar-su ek gham ka tufan dekh leta hun
taDap hai dard hai ranj-o-alam hai be-qarari hai
ye mulk aur qaum ka haal-e-pareshan dekh leta hun
isi pyare watan hindostan ki ghair haalat hai
ki jis par ghair ko bhi aaj nazan dekh leta hun
nikalti hai agar ek aah bhi mazlum ke dil se
zamin se arsh tak har shai ko larzan dekh leta hun
ghaTaen gham ki sar par chha gain jo hind walon ke
dar-o-diwar ko bhaarat ke giryan dekh leta hun
abhi hindostan ke din bhale aae nahin shayad
ki main laDte hue hindu musalman dekh leta hun
na kyun ai 'aftab' aae nazar ummid ki surat
ki jab taklif mein rahat ke saman dekh leta hun
