Nasir Kazmi Poetry

Tanhayi Ka Dukh Gehra Tha
Mein Darya Darya Rota Tha

Ek Hee Leher Na Sambhli Warna
Mein Toofaanon Se Khaila Tha

Tanhaayi Ka Tanha Saaya
Dair Se Mere Saath Laga Tha

Chhor Gaye Jub Saaray Saathi
Tanhaayi Ne Saath Diya Tha

Sookh Gayi Jab Sukh Ki Daali
Tanhaayi Ka Phool Khila Tha

Tanhaayi Mein Yaad-e-Khuda Thi
Tanhaayi Mein Khauf-e-Khuda Tha

Tanhaayi Mohraab-e-Ibaadat
Tanhaayi Manbar Ka Diya Tha

Tanhaayi Mera Paa-e-Shikasta
Tanhaayi Mera Dast-e-Dua Tha

Wo Jannat Mere Dil Mein Chhupi Thi
Jisay Mein Baahir Dhoond Raha Tha

Tanhaayi Mere Dil Ki Jannat……………..
Mein Tanhaa Hun, Mein TanhaTha…!

Tere Milnay Ko Be-Kal Hogaye Hain
Magar Ye Loog Paagal Hogaye Hain

Bahaarain Le Ke Aaye Thay Jahaan Tum
Wo Ghar Sunsaan Jangal Ho Gaye Hain

Yahaan Tak Barh Gaye Aalaam-e-Hasti
Ke Dil Ke Honslay Shal Ho Gaye Hain

Unhain Sadyon Na Bhoolay Ga Zamaana
Yahaan Jo Haadsay Kal Ho Gaye Hain

Jinhain Hum Dekh Kar Jeetay Thay Nasir
Wo Loog Aankhon Se Ojhal Ho Gaye Hain

Yaad Aata Hai Roz-o-Shab Koi
Ham Se Rootha Hai Be-Sabab Koi

Lab-e-Jo Chhaon Mein Darakhton Ki
Wo Mulaaqaat Thi Ajab Koi

Jab Tujhe Pehli Baar Dekha Tha
Wo Bhee Tha Mausam-e-Tarb Koi

Kuch Khabar Le Kar Teri Mehfil Se
Door Betha Hai Jaan-e-Balab Koi

Na Gham-e-Zindagi Na Dard-e-Firaaq
Dil Mein Yunhi Si Hai Talab Koi

Yaad Aati Hai Door Ki Baatain
Pyaar Se Dekhta Hai Jab Koi

Chout Khaayi Hai Baar-Haa Laikin
Aaj Tou Dard Hai Ajab Koi

Jin Ko Mitna Tha Mit Chukay Nasir
Un Ko Ruswa Karay Na Ab Koi

Be-Karaan Tanhaayion Ka Silsila Reh Jaaye Ga
Tere Mere Darmiyaan, Bas Ik Khalaa Reh Jaaye Ga

Aks Beh Jaayein Ge Saaray Dhoop Ke Sailaab Mein
Aur Koi Paanion Mein Jhaankta Reh Jaaye Ga

Mujh Ko Mere Hamsafar Aisa Safar Darpaish Hai
Raasta Kat Bhee Gaya Tou Faasla Reh Jaaye Ga

Loog So Jaayein Ge Khamoshi Ki Chaadar Orh Kar
Chaand Soonay Aanganon Mein Jaagta Reh Jaaye Ga

Jo Kubhi Os Ne Parheen Theen Mujh Se Nasir Maang Kar
Naam Mera Un Kitaabon Mein Likha Reh Jaaye Ga

Bhari dunya mein jee nahin lagta,
Jaane kis cheez ki kami hai abhi..

Yun Baitha Hun Dil Ke Daagh Se Khush
Jaisay Bacha Charaagh Se Khush

Jab Taaron Ki Shamain Jhilmilain
Saaqi Ne Kia Ayaagh Se Khush

Gham Chorh Gaya Jisay Jagaa Kar
Wo Dil Na Howa Faraagh Se Khush

Ab Naala-e-Dil Na Chairh Bulbul
Ye Baagh Hai Shor-e-Zaagh Se Khush

Ab Raas Hai Ka Kunj-e-Gham Hee “Nasir”
Ab Dil Nahi Sair-e-Baagh Se Khush

Teri Zulfon Ke Bikharnay Ka Sabab Hai Koi
Aankh Kehti Hai Tere Dil Mein Talab Hai Koi

Aanch Aati Hai Tere Jism Ki Uryaani Se
Pairhan Hai Ke Sulagti Howi Shab Hai Koi

Hosh Uraanay Lageen Phir Chaand Ki Thandi Kirnain
Teri Basti Mein Hun Ya Khwaab-e-Tarb Hai Koi

Geet Banti Hai Tere Sheher Ki Bharpoor Hawa
Ajnabi Mein Hee Nahi TU Bhee Ajab Hai Koi

Lye Jaati Hain Kisi Dehaan Ki Lehrain “Nasir”
Door Tak Silsila Taak-e-Tarb Hai Koi

Juda huye hain bohat log ik tum bhi sahi,
Ab itni si baat pe kya zindagi haraam karain..

Jab tak ham masroof rahe yeh dunya thi sunsaan,
Din dhalte hi dheyaan mein aye kese kese log ..

Sheher ki be’chiraag* galiyon mein,
Zindagi tujh ko dhoondti hai abhi..
