قیصر الجعفری

English rendering

Barson ke ratjagon ki thakan kha gayi mujhe Sooraj nikal raha tha ke neend aa gayi mujhe Rakhi na zindagi ne meri muflisi ki sharm Chadra bana ke rah mein phailaa gayi mujhe Main bik gaya tha baad mein be-sarfa jaan kar Duniya meri dukaan pe lauta gayi mujhe Darya pe ek tanz samjhe ke tishnagi Sahil ki sard reet mein dafna gayi mujhe Ae zindagi tamam lahoo raaigan hua Kis dasht-e-be-suwaad mein barsa gayi mujhe Kaghaz ka chand rakh diya duniya ne haath mein Pehle safar ki raat hi raas aa gayi mujhe Kya cheez thi kisi ki adaa-e-supardagi Bheege badan ki aag mein nehla gayi mujhe Qaisar! qalam ki aag ka ehsaan-mand hoon Jab ungliyan jaleen to ghazal aa gayi mujhe
