bint-e-hawwa

bint-e-hawwa hun main aurat hai mera ism-e-sharif
hai ye pahchan meri aur yahi hai tarif
mujh ko hai fakhr ki us qaum se nisbat hai meri
fatima mariyam-o-sita si hain rahbar jis ki


main bhi ashraf hun nigahon mein khuda ki mere
meri to god mein khele hain masiha kitne
kitne waliyon ne mere hath ki roti khai
kitne shahon ne mere panw mein jannat pai


main hi patthar ke makanon ko banati ghar hun
main hi duniya-e-mohabbat ka hasin mehwar hun
mere ausaf ginane ko ye kaghaz kam hain
sinf-e-nazuk hun magar ruh meri rustam hai


main ne jazbon ka tasadduq wa bharam rakkha hai
meri hi zat se mansub har ek rishta hai
man bahan hun kabhi biwi to kabhi beti hun
koi kirdar ho mardon se wafa karti hun


han magar shart-e-wafa ye hai ki paun bhi wafa
main bhi insan hun kamtar nahin rutba mera
aur rishton se alag bhi hai meri ek hasti
jo faqat ghar mein hi mahdud nahin rah sakti


ghuncha-o-gul se bhi kab chahiye tashbih mujhe
husn-e-sirat se mere dijiye tarjih mujhe
meri zulfon mere kajal ki na baaten kariye
kuchh mere zauq-o-zehanat ko bhi achchha kahiye


haisiyat ho nahin sakti nazar-andaz meri
rok sakta nahin ab koi bhi parwaz meri
aasman kya hai khala tak hai rasai meri
azm de sakta hai khud badh ke gawahi meri


be-nazir indara aur kalpana aur hir hun main
apne har khwab ki ab jagti tabir hun main
mera hargiz nahin kahna mujhe bartar samjhen
mard hazraat mujhe sirf barabar samjhen


main chalun shana-ba-shana to bura mat manen
meri hurmat meri azmat ko zara pahchanen
bint-e-hawwa hun 'hina' baat badi hai meri
nam aurat hai mera zat badi hai meri
