bahrupni

ek gardan pe saikdon chehre
aur har chehre par hazaron dagh

aur har dagh band darwaza
raushni in se aa nahin sakti

raushni in se ja nahin sakti
tang sina hai hauz masjid ka

dil wo duna pujariyon ke baad
chatte rahte hain jise kutte

kutte duna jo chat lete hain
dewtaon ko kat lete hain

jaane kis kokh ne jana is ko
jaane kis sehn mein jawan hui

jaane kis des se chali kam-bakht
waise ye har zaban bolti hai

zakhm khidki ki tarah kholti hai
aur kahti hai jhank kar dil mein

tera mazhab, tera azim khuda
teri tahzib ke hasin sanam

sab ko khatre ne aaj ghera hai
baad un ke jahan andhera hai

sard ho jata hai lahu mera
band ho jati hain khuli aankhen

aisa lagta hai jaise duniya mein
sabhi dushman hain koi dost nahin

mujh ko zinda nigal rahi hai zamin
aisa lagta hai rakshas koi

ek gagar kamar mein latka kar
aasman par chadhega aakhir-e-shab

nur sara nichod laega
mere tare bhi tod laega

ye jo dharti ka phat gaya sina
aur bahar nikal pade hain julus

mujh se kahte hain tum hamare ho
main agar in ka hun to main kya hun

main kisi ka nahin hun apna hun
mujh ko tanhai ne diya hai janam

mera sab kuchh akele-pan se hai
kaun puchhega mujh ko mele mein

sath jis din qadam badhaunga
chaal main apni bhul jaunga

ye aur aise hi chand aur sawal
dhundne par bhi aaj tak mujh ko

jin ke man bap ka mila na suragh
zehn mein ye undel deti hai

mujh ko mutthi mein bhench leti hai
chahta hun ki qatl kar dun ise

war lekin jab is pe karta hun
mere sine pe zakhm ubharte hain

mere mathe se khun tapakta hai
jaane kya mera is ka rishta hai

aandhiyon mein azan di main ne
sankh phunka andheri raaton mein

ghar ke bahar salib latkai
ek ek dar se us ko thukraya

shahr se dur ja ke phenk aaya
aur elan kar diya ki utho

barf si jam gai hai sinon mein
garm boson se us ko pighla do

kar lo jo bhi gunah wo kam hai
aaj ki raat jashn-e-adam hai

ye meri aastin se nikli
rakh diya daud ke charagh pe hath

mal diya phir andhera chehre par
hont se dil ki baat laut gai

dar tak aa ke baraat laut gai
us ne mujh ko alag bula ke kaha

aaj ki zindagi ka nam hai khauf
khauf hi wo zamin hai jis mein

firqe ugte hain firqe palte hain
dhaare sagar se kat ke chalte hain

khauf jab tak dilon mein baqi hai
sirf chehra badalte rahna hai

sirf lahja badalte rahna hai
koi mujh ko mita nahin sakta

jashn-e-adam mana nahin sakta
