Wasi Shah Poetry

 

Dheeray Se Sarakti Hai Raat Us Ke Aanchal Ki Tarah

Dheeray Se Sarakti Hai Raat Us Ke Aanchal Ki Tarah
Uska Chehra Nazar Aata Hai Jheel Main Kanwal Ki Tarah

Baad Muddat Usko Daikha To Jism-o-Jaan Ko Yun Laga
Pyasi Zameen Pe Jaisay Koi Baras Gaya Baadal Ki Tarah

Roz Kehta Hai Seenay Pe Sar Rakh K Raat Bhar Jaga’uon Ga,
Sar-e-Sham Hee Mujhe Aaj Phir Sula Gaya Wo Kal Ki Tarah,

Mere Hee Dil Ka Makee.n Nikla Wo Shakhs “Wasi”
Aur Mein Shehar Bhar Me Dhundta Raha Usy Kisi Pagal Ki Tarah

Tum mere dard bhi, gham bhi, alaam bhi tum..

Tum mere dard bhi, gham bhi, alaam bhi tum,
Tumn mera chain ho jana, mera araam bhi tum,

Kamyaabi ko nahin hum ne tumhe chahaa hai ,
Hum tumhare hain bhaley ho gaye nakaam bhi tum,

Main maseeha hoon agar, mera wazeefa tum ho,
Main hoon mujrim meri jaan mera ilzaam bhi tum,

Kya zaroorat hai mujhe dard ke me’khaanon ki,
Tumhi nasha, tumhi paimaana, mera jaam bhi tum,

Mukhtlif se bahaanon se mujhe sochtey ho,
Aik din khul ke pukaro ge mera naam bhi tum,

Yeh seyaasat bhi ajab khail hai bholey panchi,
Yahan seyaad bhi tum ho, to teh’daam bhi tum,

Jis se roshan mera aangan hai tumhi ho woh chiraag,
Sach to yeh hai ke tumhi ghar ho, dar-o-baam bhi tum,

Raat din tum ko faqat tum ko mujhe sochna hai,
Meri furssat bhi tumhi aur mera har kaam bhi tum..

Is Zameen Pe Bhi Hay Selaab Meray Ashkon Say

Sochta Hoon Ke Usay Neend Bhi Aati Hogi

Ya Meri Tarah Faqat Ashk Bahati Hogi

Wo Meri Shakal Mera Naam Bhulanay Wali

Apni Tasweer Se Kia Aankh Milati Hogi ?

Is Zameen Pe Bhi Hay Selaab Meray Ashkon Say

Meray Matam Ki Sada Arsh Helati Hogi

Shaam Hotay Hi Wo Chokhat Pay Jala Kar Shamain

Apni Palkon Pay Kaii Khowab Sulati Hogi

Us Nay Silwa Bhi Liye Hongay Siya Rang Lebaas

Ab Moharram Ki Tarah Eid Manati Hogi

Hoti Hogi Meray Bosay Ki Talab Main Pagal

Jab Bhi Zulfon Main Koii Phool Sajati Hogi

Meray Tareek Zamano Say Nikalnay Wali

Roshni Tujh Ko Meri Yaad Dilati Hogi

Dil Ki Masoom Ragain Khud Hi Sulagti Hogi

Joon Hi Tasweer Ka Kona Wo Jalati Hogi

Roop Day Kar Mujhay Us Main Kisi Shehzaday Ka

Apnay Bachon Ko Kahani Wo Sunati Hogi

Ye Kab Kaha Tha Nazaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai

Ye Kab Kaha Tha Nazaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai ?

Mujhe Tou Chaand Sitaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai,

Main Dushmanon K Kisi Waar Se Nahi Darta,

Mujhe To Apne Hi Yaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai,

Khiza Ka Jabar Tou Seene Pay Rok Lete Hain,

Hamein Udaas Bahaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai,

Mile Hain Dosto Besaakhiyon Se Gham Itne,

Mere Badan Ko Sahaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai….

Main Iltifaat Ki Khandaq Se Door Rehta Hun,

Ta’alluqaat K Gaaron Se Khauf Aata Hai..
