Ibteda
haiN
aur bhee duniya meiN suKHanwar bohot achche
kehte haiN ki 'GHalib' ka hai andaaz-e-bayaaN
aur
Balli maarhah ke mahalle
ki wo pechida daleeloN ki see wo galiYan
saamne Taal ke nuKkad pe baTeroN ke posheede
guD-guDaati hui paaN pi peekoN meiN wo daad wo waH-waH
chand darwaaze par laTke huye boshida
se kuch TaaT ke parde
ek baKri ke mamiyaane ki awaaZ
aur
dhoondhlaayi huyi shaam ke be-noor andhere
aise deewaroN se mooH joD kar chalte haiN yahaN
chuDi-waala unke katri ke badi bee jaise
apNi boojHti hui aaNkhoN se darwaaze TaTole
aisee be-noor andheri see gali qaasim se
ek quran-e-sukhan ka safa khulta hai
asad allah Khan 'GHalib' ka patha milta hain
1. har ek baat pe kehte ho tum ke 'too kya hai'
?
tumheeN kaho ke yeh andaaz-e-guftgoo kya hai ?
ragoN meiN dauDte firne ke
ham naheeN qaayal
jab aaNkh hee se na Tapka to fir lahoo kya hai ?
chipak raha hai badan par lahoo se pairaahan
hamaaree jeb ko ab haajat-e-rafoo kya hai ?
jalaa hai jicm jahaaN dil bhee jal gaya
hoga
kuredate ho jo ab raakh, justjoo kya hai ?
rahee na taaqat-e-guftaar, aur agar ho
bhee
to kis ummeed pe kahiye ke aarzoo kya hai ?
2.
aah ko chaahiye ik 'umr
asar hone tak
kaun jeeta hai teree zulf ke sar hone tak ?
aashiqee sabr talab
aur tamanna betaab
dil ka kya rang karooN KHoon-e-jigar hone
tak ?
ham ne maana ke taGHaful na
karoge, lekin
KHaak ho jaayeNge ham tumko KHabar hone tak
GHam-e-hastee ka 'Asad' kis'se ho juz
marg ilaaz
shamma'a har rang meiN jaltee hai sahar hone tak
3. ishq mujhko naheeN, wehshat hee sahee
meree wehshat, teree shohrat hee sahee
ham bhee dushman to naheeN haiN apne
GHair ko tujh se mohabbat hee sahee
ham koee tarq-e-wafa karte
haiN
na sahee ishq, museebat hee sahee
4. qaasid ke aate aate khat ik aur likh rakhooN
main jaanta hooN jo wo liKhenge jawaab meiN
kab se hooN kya bataaooN jahaan mein kharaab
meiN
jab haaye hizr ko bhi rakhoo gar hisaab meiN
muJh tak kab unki bazm meiN aata thaa
dauR-e-jaam
saaqi neiN kuch mila na diya ho sharaab meiN
taaqir na intezaar meiN neeNd aaye umr
bhar
aaNe ka 'ehed kar gaYe aaYe jo khwaaB meiN
'GHalib' chuTi sharaab par ab bhi kabHi kabHi
peeta hooN roj-e-abro shab-e-maahtaab meiN
5. hazaaroN KHwahishaiN 'eisee ke har KHwahish
pe dam nikle
bohot nikle mere armaaN lekin fir
bhee kam nikle
nikalna KHuld se aadam ka sunte aayaiN
haiN lekin
bohot be_aabru hokar tere kooche se ham nikle
mohabbat meiN naheeN hai farq jeene
aur marne kaa
usee ko dekh kar jeete haiN jis kaafir pe dam nikle
KHuda ke waaste parda
na kaabe se uThaa zaalim
kaheeN 'eisa na ho yaaN bhee wohee
kaafir sanam nikle
kahaaN maiKHaane ka darwaaza 'GHalib'
aur kahaaN waaiz
par itana jaante haiN kal wo jaata tha ke ham
nikle
6. dil hee to hai na sang-o-KHisht dard se bhar
na aaye kyoN ?
royeNge ham hazaar baar, koee
hameiN sataaye kyoN ?
dair naheeN, haram naheeN, dar naheeN,
aastaaN naheeN
baiTHe haiN rehguzar pe ham, GHair hameiN uTHaaye kyoN ?
haaN wo naheeN KHuda_parast,
jaao wo be_wafa sahee
jisko ho deen-o-dil 'azeez, uskee galee meiN jaaye
kyoN ?
'GHalib'-e-KHasta ke baGHair kaun se kaam
band haiN ?
roiye zaar-zaar kya, keejiye

7. woh firaaq aur woh wisaal kahaaN
?
woh shab-o-roz-o-maah-o-saal kahaaN ?
thee woh ik shaKHs ke tasavvur se
ab woh raanaai-e-KHayaal kahaaN ?
'eisa aasaaN naheeN
lahoo rona
dil meiN taaqat jigar meiN haal kahaaN ?
fikr-e-duniyaaN meiN sar khapaata hooN
maiN kahaaN aur ye wabaal kahaaN ?
8. tere waade par jiye ham to ye jaan jhooT
jaanaa
ke KHushee se mar na jaate agar 'eitabaar hota
ye na thee hamaaree qismat ke wisaal-e-yaar
hota
agar aur jeete rehte yahee intezaar
hota
ye kahaaN ki dostee hai ke bane haiN dost
naaseh
koee chaarasaaz hota, koee GHamgusaar
hota
kahooN kis se maiN ke kya hai, shab-e-GHam

9. baazeechaa-e-atfaal hai duniya mere aage

mat pooch ke kya haal hai mera tere peeche
?

imaaN mujhe roke hai jo khiNche hai mujhe
kufr
ka'aba mere peeche hai kaleesa mere
aage
go haath ko jumbish naheeN aaNhoN meiN

rehne do abhee saaGHar-o-meena
mere aage
10. kisee ko de ke dil koee nawaa_sanj-e-fuGHaaN

na ho jab dil hee seene meiN to fir muNh meiN zubaaN kyoN
ho ?
wafa kaisee ? kahaaN ka ishq ? jab sar
phoDna THehra
to fir 'ei sang_dil tera hee sang-e-aastaaN kyoN ho ?
yahee hai aazmaana to sataana kis
ko kehte haiN ?
`adoo ke ho liye jab tum to mera imtihaaN kyoN ho ?
qafas meiN mujh se roodaad-e-chaman kehte
na Dar hamdam
giree hai jis pe kal bijlee woh mera aashiyaaN kyoN ho ?
11. ye na thee hamaaree qismat ke wisaal-e-yaar hota
agar aur jeete rehte yahee intezaar hota
koee mere dil se pooche tere teer-e-neemkash

'GHalib'-e-KHasta ke baGHair kaun se kaam
band haiN ?
roiye zaar-zaar kya, keejiye
haay-haay kyoN ?
14. zulmat_kade meiN mere shab-e-GHam ka josh hai
ik shamma'a hai daleel-e-sahar, so KHamosh hai
daaGH-e-firaaq-e-sohabat-e-shab kee jalee

ik shamma`a reh gaee hai so wo bhee KHamosh hai
aate haiN GHaib se ye mazaameeN KHayaal
meiN
'GHalib', sareer-e-KHaama nawa-e-sarosh hai
15. dil-e-naadaaN tujhe huaa kya hai ?
aaKHir is dard kee dawa kya hai
hamko unse wafa ki hai ummeed
jo naheeN jaante wafa kya hai
dil-e-naadaaN tujhe huaa kya hai ?
aaKHir is dard kee dawa kya hai
ham haiN mushtaaq aur woh bezaar
ya ilaahee ! yeh maajra kya hai ?
jab ki tujh bin naheeN koee maujood
fir ye hangaama, 'ei KHuda ! kya hai
jaan tum par nisaar karta
hooN
maiN naheeN jaanata duaa kya hai
16. unke dekhe se jo aa jaathi hai moonH par raunaq
wo samajhteN haiN ke beemaar ka haal achcha hai
dekhiye paate haiN pushaaq butoN se kya
faiZ
ik barhaman ne kaha hai ke ye saal achcha hai
humko maaloom hai jannat ki haqeeqat lekin
dil ko khusH rakHne ko 'GHalib' ye khayaal achcha hai
17. sab kahan-kuch lala-o-gul mein numaayaN ho gayee
KHaaK mein kya surateN hongi ke piNhaN ho gayee
ranZ se khu-garZ hua insaaN to mit jaata
hai ranZ
musHkilyeN muJh par padi itnee ke aasaaN ho gayee
yuN hi gar rota raha 'GHalib' to e-ehle
jahaaN
deKHna in bastiyoN ko tum ke weeraaN ho gayee
18. na tha kuchch to KHuda tha, kuchch na hota to KHuda
hota
duboya mujhko hone ne, na hota maiN
to kya hota ?
huaa jab GHam se yooN behis to GHam kya
sar ke kaTne ka
na hota gar juda tan se to zaanooN
par dhaRa hota
huee muddat ke 'GHalib' mar gaya
par yaad aata hai
wo har ek baat pe kehana, ke yooN hota to kya hota ?
