Imran's Poetry: 03/30/15

Mar 30, 2015

Poocha tha us ne hal bari muddat kay baad

Kuch par gay hai aankh main , yeh keh kay ro paray

Kisay mohabbat karon , bhout ghreeb hoon

Log biktay hain main khareed nahin pata

Tu hans raha hai mujh pe mera haal dekh kar

Aur phir bhi main shareek teray qeh'qahon main hoon

Mout bar'haq sahi magar Mohsin

Saans lena bhi ek qayamat hai

Na shair hoon main , Na sha'oor-e-ishq mujh ko

Main to likhta hoon keh haal-e-dil bayaan kar sakon

Zara thehro keh baarish hai , yeh tham jaye to phir jana

Kisi ka tujh ko choo jana mujhay acha nahin lagta

Teray aanay ka maloom nahin

Baarish kay ti hain imkaan bhout

Aur kuch nahin hota to bhari baarish main

Aur kuch nahin hota to bhari baarish main

Tujh se bichray huye raaston par safar karta hoon

Bikharta ja raha hoon main aaghosh-e-tanhai main

Kaash koi mera hota jomujhay khud main samait leta

Faaslay barhay to ghalat fehmiyan aur bhi barh gayein

Us ne woh bhi sunna jo main ne kaha bhi nahin

Hum hi be'taab nahin dard-e-judai ki qasam

Karwatein raat gaye woh bhi badalta ho ga

Aaj phir un se mulaqaat hui hai Mohsin

Aaj phir dil pe koi zakham laga ho jaisay

Adaab-e-wafa bhi seekho ishq ki baar'gaah main

Faqat youn dil laganay se dilon main ghar nahin bantay

Youn ba'kamaal huye her kamaal se pehlay

Jawaab dhoondnay niklay sawaal se pehlay

Jab imtihaan ho karri shart kamraani ki

Khushi khushi se milay gi kamaal se pehlay

Fana ki had se hoon ab intizaar-e-mehndi main

Zawaal aanay ko hai la'zawaal se pehlay

Yeh kis lahoo ki hai surkhi shafaq kay maathay pe

Misaal kon si hai be'misaal se pehlay

Jab intedaab-e-nakeerain hain jaza-o-saza

Phir ehtisaab hai kiyon intiqaal se pehlay

Tum apnay zarf kay Aousaaf khoob ginwaao

Woh tor de ga sabhi istimaal se pehlay

Her ik rang pe Mohsin ka rang taari hai

Haseen woh hi tha husan-o-jamaal se pehlay

Woh ashk ban kay meri chashm-e-tar main jab aaya

Sha'oor soz-e-mohabbat ka mujh ko tab aaya

Adhooray pan ka tamasha hai meray chaaron taraf

Yahan pe koi nahin , jis kay hissay main sab aaya

Phir us kay baad zubaan qaid ho gayi meri

Bas ik baar tera naam zer-e-lab aaya

Na sajda haaye aqeedat main be'khudi utri

Na khaak-e-hasto ko utarnay ka koi dhab aaya

Jissay yaqeen ho awaragi kay maslik par

Ussay khayal dil-o-dar'badar ka kab aaya

Ameer-e-shaher ne Aahon pe jab saza rakh di

Ghreeb-e-shaher ko tab yaad apna Rab aaya

Sufaid ho gaye jo sar kay baal bhi

Hamaray gaaon ka beta palat kay ab aaya

Kehty hain ussay shaher kay sab log maseeha

Woh shakhs meray dard se anjaan sa kiyon hai

Be'adal hi hoti rahi yahan pyaar ki taqseem

Is shaher main pyaar ka fuqdaan sa kiyon hai

Izhaar kay ba'wajood bhi mujh ko muyassar nahin to phir

Seenay main us kay pyaar ka toofan sa kiyon hai

Jo hum se koi taa'luq hi nahin rakhta

Us shakhs kay loat aanay ka imkaan sa kiyon hai

Matti ka bana hai to ghul kiyon nahin jaata

Pathar ka agar hai to phir insaan sa kiyon hai

Haya ki shokiyon se uthtay uthtay jhuk gayein

Meri qismat main un kay teer bi aaye kamaan ho kar
