garmii kaa roz-e-jang kii kyon kar karuun bayaan - Babar Ali Anees

aneeskarbalaa (marsiyaa)

garmii kaa roz-e-jang kii kyon kar karuun bayaan

dar hai ke masl-e-shamaa na jalane lage zabaan

vo luu ke alhazar vo haraarat ke alamaan

ran kii zamiin to surkh thii aur zard aasmaan

aab-e-khunak ko khalaq tarasatii thii khaak par

goyaa havaa se aag barasatii thii khaak par

vo luu vo aaftaab kii shiddat vo tab-o-taab

kaalaa thaa rang dhuup se din kaa misaal-e-shab

khud nahar-e-alqamaa ke bhii suukhe hue the lab

khaime jo the habaabon ke tapate the sab ke sab

udatii thii khaak khushk thaa chashmaa hayaat kaa

khaulaa huaa thaa dhuup se paanii Faraat kaa

jhiilon se chaarapaaye na uthate the ta ba shaam

maskin men machhalion ke samandar kaa thaa maqaam

aahuu jo kaahile the to chiite siyaahfaam

paththar pighal ke rah gaye the masl-e-mom khaam

surkhii udii thii phuulon se sabzii gayah se

paanii kuen men utaraa thaa saaye kii chaah se

koson kisii shajar men na gul the na barg-o-baar

ek ek nakhal jal rahaa thaasuurat-e-chinaar

hansataa thaa koii gul na lahakataa thaa sabazaraar

kaantaa huii thiisuukh ke har shaakh-e-baar daar

garmii ye thii kii ziist se dil sab ke sard the

patte bhii masle-e-cheharaa-e-madquuq zard the

aab-e-ravaan se muunh na uthaate the jaanavar

jangal men chhipate phirate the taair idhar udhar

mardam the saat pardon ke andar araq se tar

khaskhaanaa-e-mizhgaan se nikalatii na thii nazar

gar chashm se nikal kar thahar jaaye raah men

par jaayen laakh aablepaa-e-nigaah men

sher uthate the na dhuup ke maare kachhaar se

aahuu na muunh nikalate the sabzaazaar se

aaiinaa mahar kaa thaa muqaddar gubaar se

garduun ko tap chadii thii zamiin ke bukhaar se

garmii se muztarib thaa zamaanaa zamiin par

bhun jaataa thaa jo girataa thaa daanaa zamiin par

girdaab par thaa sholaa-e-javaalaa kaa gumaan

angaare the habaab to paanii sharar fishaan

muunh se nikal padii thii har ek maujkii zabaan

tah par the sab nihang magar thii labon pe jaan

paanii thaa aag garmii-e-roz-hisaab thii

maahii jo siikh-e-mauj tak aaii kabaab thii

aaiinaa-e-falak ko na thii taab-o-tab kii taab

chhipane ko barq chaahatii thii daaman-e-sahaab

sab ke sivaa thaa garm mizaajon ko iztiraab

kaafuur-e-subah dhuundhataa phirataa thaa aaftaab

bhadakii thii aag gumbad-e-charkh-e-asiir men

baadal chhipe the sab kurrah-e-zamharir men
