انصاف کی ترازو میں تولا عیاں ہوا — حیدر علی آتش

Insaaf ki taraazu mein tola ayaan hua

Insaaf ki taraazu mein tola ayaan hua
Yusuf se tere husn ka palla giran hua
Roo-e-zameen pe aisa main bismil tapaan hua
Ud kar mera lahu shafaq-e-aasmaan hua
Is barq-wash ka ishq-e-nihaani ayaan hua
Abr-e-siyah aahon ka mere dhuaan hua
Peeri mein mujh ko ishq-e-haseen jawan hua
Baar-e-digar kabaade mein zor-e-kamaan hua
Ahl-e-zameen se saaf kahan aasmaan hua
Kis roz burj-e-maah mein farsh-e-kitaaban hua
Ma'doom daagh-e-ishq ka dil se nishaan hua
Afsoos be-chiragh hamara makaan hua
Do tukde ek waar mein khud habaab hai
Girdaab-e-mauj-e-tegh ko sang-e-fasaan hua
Dekha jo main ne us ko samandar ki aankh se
Gul-zaar aag ho gayi sunbul dhuaan hua
Milta nahin dimaagh hi gaisu-e-yaar ka
Kuchh in dinon mein mushk ka saudaagiraan hua
Khush-chashmon ke firaaq mein khaaye yeh pech-o-taab
Shaakh-e-ghazal apna har ik istikhwaan hua
Sakhti-e-raah-e-ishq se waaqif hue na paon
Josh-e-junoon mere liye takht-e-rawaan hua
Amboh-e-aashiqan se hua husn ko ghuroor
Kasrat se mushtari ki yeh saudaagiraan hua
Paivand-e-khaak ho gaye ik but ki raah mein
Patthar hamari qabr ka sang-e-nishaan hua
Phenka gaya na peer-e-falak na'al ki tarah
Koi na tifl-e-ashk hamara jawan hua
Tu dekhne gaya lab-e-darya jo chandni
Istaada tujh ko dekh ke aab-e-rawaan hua
Insaan ko chahiye ke na ho na-gawaar-e-taba
Samjhe sabaq usay jo kisi par giran hua
Us gul se arz-e-haal ki hasrat hi reh gayi
Kaante pade zabaan mein jo mail-e-bayaan hua
Allah ke karam se buton ko kiya mutee'
Zair-e-nageen qalamrau Hindustan hua
Insaaf main ne alam-e-asbaab mein kiya
Banwaai chandni jo muyassar kitaaban hua
Gardish ne us ki surma kiye apne istikhwaan
Chakki hamare peesne ko aasmaan hua
Qatil ki tegh se reh mulk-e-adam mili
Aahan hamare waaste sang-e-nishaan hua
Fikr-e-buland ne meri aisa kiya buland
Atish! zameen-e-she'r se past aasmaan hua
