Majaz ki shayyiri

hizaab kitna parwar ab utha leti toh achcha tha
khud apne husn ko parda bana leti toh achcha tha
teri neechi nazar khud teri ismat[pativarta] ki muhafiz hai
tu iss nashtar ki tezi aazma leti toh achcha tha
teri cheene zabin khud ik saza kanoon-e-fitrat mein
issi shamsheer se kaate saza leti toh achcha tha
yeh tera zard rukh, yeh khusk lab, yeh veham yeh vehshat
tu apne sar se yeh badal hata leti toh achcha tha
dil-e-mazrooh ko mazrooh tar karne se kya hasil ?
tu aanshu ponch kar ab muskura leti toh achcha tha
tere zere nagin ghar ho, mehal ho, kasar ho, kuch ho ?
main yeh kehta hun tu arzoo sama leti toh achcha tha
agar khilwat[akele] mein tune sar uthaya bhi toh kya hasil ?
bhari mehfil mein aa kar sar utha leti toh achcha tha
tere maathe ka tiiqa mard ki kismat ka taara hai
agar tu saaze bedaari utha leti toh achcha tha
ayaan hai dushmanon ke khanjar par khoon ke dhabe
unnhe tu range aariz se mila leti toh achcha tha
sana'yen kheench li hai sar-phire baagi jawanon ne
tu saamne zaraahat ab utha leti toh achcha tha
tere mathe pe yeh aanchal bohat hi khoob hai lekin
tu iss aanchal se ik parcham bana leti toh achcha tha

husn phir fitna gar[jhagda paida karne wala] hai kya kahiye
dil ki zaanib nazar hai kya kahiye
phir vahi rahguzar hai kya kahiye
zindgi raah par hai kya kahiye
husn khud parda dar hai kyya kahiye
yeh hamari nazar hai kya kahiye
aah toh beasar thi barson se
nagma bhi be-asar hai kya kahiye
husn hai ab na husn ke jalwe
ab nazar hi nazar hai kya kahiye
aaj bhi hai majaz khaak nashin
aur nazar arsh par hai kya kahiye

kya tujhko khabar hai hum kya kya
ae shorishe dauran bhool gaye
veh zulfe pareshan bhool gaye

ae shauqe nazara kya kahiye
nazron mein koi surat hi nahi
ae zauke tasvvur kya kijiye
hum surate janan bhool gaye
ab gul se nazar milti hi nahin,
ab dil ki kali khilti hi nahin
ae fasa'le baharan rukhsat ho
hum lutfe baharan bhool gaye
sabka toh madava[illaz] kar daala
apni hi madava kar na sake
sabke toh gariban sii daale
apna hi gariban sii na sake
yeh apni waffa ka aalam hai
ab unnki zaffa ko kya kahiye
ik tashtare zehare aagiin[zehar mein bhujha hua khanjar] rakh kar
nazdeek rage jaan bhool gaye

dair-o-kaba ka main nahi qayal
dair-o-kaba ko aastan na bana
mujh mein tu ruuhe sarmadi matphonk
raunq-e-bazm-e-aarifan na bana
dasht-e-zulmaat mein bhatkane de
meri raahon ko qehqasan na bana
ishart-e-zahal-b-tergi mat cheen
mehram-e-raaze do jahan na bana
bijliyon se jahan na ho chashmak
uss gulistan mein aaishiyan na bana
khaare chashm-e-hareef rehne de
hirze bajuye dostan na bana
meri khud bainiyan na le mujhse
jalwaye afroze mahoshan na bana
dile sad paraye hawadish ko
takhte mashke gul rukhan na bana
meri khud'dariyon ka khoon na kar
mutribe bazme dilbaran na bana
maho anjum se mujhko kya nisbat
mujhko innka mijazdaan na bana
jisko apni khabar nahin rehti
ussko saalre karvan na bana
meri jaanib nigahen lutf na kar
gham ko iss darza kamran na bana
iss zamin ko zamin hi rehne de
iss zamin ko tu aasman na bana
meri hasti niyazo shaunq sahi
issko unnwane dastan na bana
raaz tera chip nahi sakta
tu mujhe apna razdaan na bana

Majaz ki shayyiri

khud dil mein reh ke aankh se parda kare koi
haan lutf jab hai paa ke bhi dhoondha kare koi
tumne toh hukamen tark-e-tamnna suna diya
kis dil se aah tark-e-tamnna kare koi
duniya larz gayi dil-e-hirman naseeb ki
iss tarah saaz-e-aish na cheda kare koi
mujhko yeh aarzu veh uthaye naqab khud
unnko yeh intzaar takaza kare koi
ye toh kisi ko zara'ete didar hi na ho
ya phir meri nigah se dekha kare koi
hoti hai iss mein husn ki toheen-e-'majaz'
itna na ahl-e-ishq ko ruswa kare koi

Majaz ki shayyiri

yeh meri duniya, yeh meri hasti
nagma, taraazi, sahbaa parasti[sharab ki puja]
shayar ki duniya, shayar ki hasti
ya nak'ae'gham[topic of pain] ya shore masti
sab se gurezan[allagh], sab par barasati
aankhon ki masti mehngi na sasti
ya khuldo[zannat] saqi-e-zezbe masti
ya tukde tukde damani hasti
mehve safar hun, gharm-e-safar hun
meri nazar mein rifiyat[bulandi] napasti[neechi jagah]
unn ankhdiyon ka aalam na pucho
sahba hi sahba, masti hi masti
veh aa bhi jaate, veh ho bhi jaate
chashm-e-tamnna phir bhi tarsati
unnka karam hai unnki muhbbat
kya mere nagmen, kya meri hasti

Majaz ki shayyiri

saara alam gosh-bar[kaan lagaye huye] aawaz hai
aaj kin haathon mein dil ka saaz hai ?
tu jahan hai zamzama parwaz hai
dil jahan hai gosh-bar aawaz hai
haan zara zur'aat dikha re zazbe dil
husn ko parde pe ane naaz hai
ham-nashii dil ki haqiqat kya kahun
soz mein duuba hua ik saz hai
aap ki makhmoor aankhon ki qasam
meri mai-khwari ab tak raz hai
hans diye vo mere rone par magar
unnke hans dene mein bhi ik raz hai
chhip gaye veh saaze hasti chheddkar
ab toh bas aawaz hi aawaz hai
husn ko nahak pasheman kar diya
ae junoon yeh bhi koi andaaz hai
saari mehfil jis pe jhoom uthi 'majaz'
veh toh aawaz-e-shikast-e-saaz hai

Majaz ki shayyiri

kamal-e-ishq hai diwana ho gaya hun main
ye kis ke haath se daman chhuda raha hun main
tumhi toh ho jise kehti hai nakhuda duniya
bacha sako toh bacha lo ki duubta hun main
ye mere ishq ki majbooriyan ma'az[allah bachaye] allah
tumhara raz tumhin se chhupa raha hun main
iss ek hizab pa' sau behizabiyan sadke
jahan se chahta hun tum ko dekhta hun main
batane wale wahin par batate hain manzil
hazar baar jahan se guzar chuka hun main
kabhi ye zom ki tu mujhse chhip nahin sakta
kabhi ye veham ki khud bhi chipa hua hun main
mujhe sune na koi maste baadaye ishrat
'majaz' tuute huye dil ki ik sada hun main

Majaz ki shayyiri

raashaa sa jo yaan dasto-girebaan mein dekha
hindu mein na paaya na musalmaan mein dekha ?
saf'faak[bereham] se yeh aabru yeh gazabnaaksi aankhen
ik daag sa har qalb-e-pur armaan[arman bhar din] mein dekha
farkhaanda zabiin[naseebo wala maatha] ho ke bhi shamsheer ba_kaf hai
shaitaan ne kya seen'aye eesaan mein dekha
ab dard kaleje se lagaye huye firi'aye
imaan se paaya hai na imaan mein dekha
iss se toh mazaaz aap bhi be_baharaa ho shayad
jo soz'ye waffa aap ke hiziyaan[bukhar mein ulta-sidha bolna,bakwas] mein dekha

Majaz ki shayyiri

partav[chayya]-e-sagar-e-sahbaa[madira] kya tha
raat ik hashn[hangama] sa barpa kya tha
kyun jawani ki mujhe yaad aayi
maine ik khwab sa dekha kya tha
husn ki aankh bhi namnaak hui
ishq ko aapne samjha kya hai
ishq ne aankh jhuka li varna
husn aur husn ka parda kya tha
kyun 'majaz' aapne 'saagar' toda
aaj yeh shehr mein charcha kya tha

Majaz ki shayyiri

junoon shauq ab bhi kam nahi hai
magar veh aaj bhi barham[khaffa] nahi hai
bohat mushkil hai duniya ka sanwarna
teri zulfon ka pecho kham nahi hai
bohat kuch aur bhi hai iss jahan mein
yeh duniya mehaj gham hi gham nahi hai
takaze kyun karun paiham[baar-baar] na saaqi
kise yaan fikr-e-besho kam nahin hai ?
udhar mashkook[unbelieveable] hai meri sadaqat[sachai]
idhar bhi bad_gumani kam nahi hai
meri barbadiyon ka humnashinon
tumhe kya khud mujhe bhi gham nahin hai
abhi bazm-e-tarb se kyu utthun main
abhi toh aankhen bhi purnam nahin hai
va-e-seele gham va-seele hawaadis
mera sar hai ki ab bhi kham nahi han hai
'majaz' ik badakash[sharabi] toh hai yaqinan
jo hum sunte thay veh aalam nahin hai

Majaz ki shayyiri

jigar aur dil ko bachana bhi hai
nazar aap hi se milana bhi hai
muhbbat ka har bhed paana bhi hai
magar aapna daaman bachana bhi hai
jo dil tere gham ka nishana bhi hai
qateel-e-zaffaye zamana bhi hai
yeh bijlkti hai kyun dam-ba-dam
chaman mein koi ashiana bhi hai
khurd[chota] ki itiyaat zaroori sahi
yahi toh junoon ka zamana bhi hai
na duniya na ukaab kahan jaayiye
kahin ahl-e-dil ka thikana bhi hai
mujhe aaj saahil pe rone bhi do
ki tufan mein muskurana bhi hai
zamane se aage toh badhiye 'majaz'
zamane ko aage badhana bhi hai

Majaz ki shayyiri

nahi yeh fikr koi rahbare kaamil[guide] nahin milta
koi duniya mein maanuse mijaz-e-dil nahin milta
kabhi saahil pe rehkar shauq-e-tufan se takraayen
kabhi tufan mein reh kar fikr hai saahil nahin milta
yeh aana koi aana hai ki bas rasman chale aaye
yeh milna khaaq milna hai ki dil se dil nahin milta
shikaste pa' ko mazda, khastgaane raah ko mazdaa
ki rahbhar ko suraag-e-jaadiye manzil nahin milta
vahan kitnaon ko takhto laaz ka armaan hai kya kahiye
jahan saa'el[begger] ko kaasiye saa'el nahin milta
yeh qatl-e-aam aur be_azn qatl-e-aam kya kahiye
yeh bisnil kaise bismil hain jinehn qatil nahin milta

Majaz ki shayyiri

meri waffa ka tera lutf bhi jawab nahin
mere shabab ki qeemat tera shabab nahin
yeh mahtaab nahin hai ki aaftab nahin
sabhi hai husn, magar ishq ka jawab nahin
meri nigah mein jalwe hain jalwe hi jalwe
yahan hizab nahin hai, yahan naqaab nahin
hunoon bhi hadh se siva, shauq bhi hai hadh se siva
yeh baat kya hai ki main mauride ataab nahin
yahan toh husn ka dil bhi hai gham se sadpaara[tukde-tukde]
main kamyaab nahin veh bhi kamyaab nahin
yahan toh raat ki bedaariyan mus'slam[sampooran] hai
magar vahan bhi hasin ankhadiyon mein khwab nahin
na puuchiye meri duniya ko, meri duniya mein
khud aaftaab bhi zarra hai aaftab nahin
sabhi hai mai_kade dahar mein khuld waale
koi khrab nahin hai koi kharab nahin
'majaz' kisko main samjhaun koi kya samjhe
ki kamyaar muhbbat bhi kamyaab nahin

Majaz ki shayyiri

mujhse mat puuch "mere husn mein kya rakha hai"
aankh se parde zulmat[andhkaar ka parda] utha rakha hai
meri duniya ki mere gham se jahnuum bardosh
tune duniya ko bhi firdosh bana rakha hai
mujhse mat puuch "tere ishq mein kya rakha hai"
soz ko saaz ke parde mein chupa rakha hai
jagmaga uthti hai duniya-e-takhyyul jis se
dil mein veh shol-e-jaan_soz[painful] dabba rakha hai

Majaz ki shayyiri

veh naqaab aap se uth jaaye toh kuch door nahin
varna meri nigah shauq bhi majboor nahin
khatir-e-ahl-e-nazar husn ko manzoor nahin
iss mein kuch teri khata deed-e-mehzoor nahin
laakh chhipte ho magar chhip ke bhi mastoor[gupt] nahin
tum azab cheez ho nazdeek nahin duur nahin
zaraait-e-arz par veh kuch nahin kehte lekin
har ada se yeh tapkta hai ki manzoor nahi
dil dhadak uthta hai khud apni hi har aahat par
ab qadam manzile jana se bohat duur nahin
haaye veh waqt ki jab be_piiye madhoshi thi
haaye yeh waqt ki ab pii ke bhi makhmuur nahin
husn hi husn hai jis simt uthata hun nazar
ab kahan tuur nahin, barq-e-sar-e-tuur nahin
dekh sakta hun jo aankhon se veh kaafi hai 'majaz'
ahl-e-irfaan ki nawazish mujhe manzoor nahin

Majaz ki shayyiri

apne dil ko donon aalam se utha sakta hun main
kya samjhti ho ki tumko bhi bhuula sakta hun main
kaun tumse chheen sakta hai mujhe, kya veham hai
khud zulekha se bhi toh daaman bacha sakta hun main
dil mein tum paida karo pehle meri si jaraa'aten[himat]
aur phir dekho ki tumko kya bana sakta hun main
dafn kar sakta hun seene mein tumhare raaz ko
aur tum chaho toh afsana bana sakta hun main
main qasam khata hun apne tataq ke ejaaz ki
tumko bazme maaho anzuum mein baitha sakta hun main
sar pe rakh sakta hun taaze kishvare nuraaniyan
mehfile khursheed ko neecha dikha sakta hun main
main bohat sarkash hun lekin ik tumhare vaaste
dil biichha sakta hun main, aankhen bichha sakta hun main
tum agar ruutho toh ik tumko manane ke liye
geet ga sakta hun main, aansu baha sakta hun main
jazb hai dil mein mere dono jahan ka sozo saaz
barbate fitrat ka har nagma suna sakta hun main
tum samjhti ho ki hain pardfe bohat se darmiyan
main yeh kehta hun ki har parda utha sakta hun main
tum ki ban sakti ho har mehfil mein firdos-e-nazar
mujhko yeh daava ki har mehfil pe chha sakta hun main
aao milkar inqilabe taaza paida karen
dehar par iss tarah chha jaayen ki sab dekha karen

unnke altaaf ka itna hi fasoon kaafi hai
kam hai pehle se bohat dard-e-jigar aaj ki raat
