dil-e-safi

dil-e-safi ye ho ai 'mehr' khuda ki rahmat
main ne mahsus kiya hai bahut aaram yahan
gosha-e-afat us ko kahin to zeba hai
kaisi taskin ka hai kaise sukun ka ye makan


is tarah shahar se kuchh dur koi mabad ho
shaara-e-am se hat kar ki na ho bhid wahan
koi jae bhi jo us ja to irada kar ke
ye na ho har kas-o-na-kas ho wahan gasht-kunan


jae tanha ho makan gosha-e-uzlat sa ho
jis taraf dekho nazar aae khamoshi ka saman
saya-e-afgan hun kuhan sal darakht us ja par
aisi thandak ho ki bas aae wahan jaan mein jaan


sahn mein aab-e-musaffa pada hauz bhi ho
aur wo aisa maskan ki na ho jis ka bayan
girah mein hun raushen besh-baha patthar ki
saf aisi ki na ratanka bhi nazar aae wahan


samne aankh ke mabad ka ho burj-e-sangin
jis ki tamir ko barson hue hon ya sadiyan
gharaz aisa ho makan aur to wan baitha ho
aur khamoshi o sukun chaar taraf se ho ayan


tu wahan baitha ho aaram se aur tere siwa
aadmi-zad ka dhundhe na nazar aae nishan
dekh kar aankh mein nur tabiat mein surur
to ye samjhe ki zamin par hai yahi bagh-e-jinan


hai yahi haal jo dekho to dil safi ka
wahi taskin-o-sukun aur wahi rahat hai yahan
wahi thandak hai wahi nur-o-surur-o-maufur
hai yahan bhi wahi taskin-o-khamoshi ka saman


main yahan baith ke ai 'mehr' maze leta hun
aur samajhta hun zamin par hai yahi bagh-e-jinan
