Manind e darya hai zeest sumundur tak ravaan

Jab talak hai nafas 'sahil', tab talak hai jaan

Kar le tu talaf jo chhahe, nizaam sab maula ka hai

Neela hai neela rahega, ai bande tera aasmaan

Dil kis ka jal raha hai aaj, sulagti naar se pursish kya

Dil nahin to raakh kya hai, tu hi bata, ai dukhaan

Hai hasraton ka majmua, kehte ho jisey insaan tum

Ainey me dekh kar khud ko, hota hai abas pareshaan

Khushamaden kya karneen 'sahil', yaksaan hain jab bande sab

Ghafoor to sabka ek hi hai, sabka woh asl mehrbaan.

2.

Yeh kis ki gali hai, rihaaish yeh kis ki

Hum kyon chale aaye, khwahish yeh kis ki

Mahabat to jazba hai wafa ka, jaanaan

Mahabat men phir aazmaaish yeh kis ki

Takte ho tum maah o anjum ko, phir

Guftagu hum se, sataaish yeh kis ki

Gul, chaman men haseen tha khila hua

Aaj zulfon men gul hai, aaraish yeh kis ki

Shaikh, dastaar e muflisaan kyon sar per tere,

Deekha kya raha hai, numaish yeh kis ki

Subh ta shaam humsafar tha, aaftaab

Ab sitaare hain saath, saazish yeh kis ki

Anjaam hai fana, tujhe fikr kya hai 'sahil'

Daur peeri ka hai, phir kaahish yeh kis ki

3.

Kh-moshi

Sukhan ki baat kyon, jab kh-moshi hai chhayi hui

Dil per, ai 'sahil' mian, aandhi si aayi hui

Naseem na shajar na hi toofaan ki hulchul

Yeh daastaan kis ne yaro, hai qabal sunayi hui

Kabhi aate they gulcheen, gulshan men baaghbaan

Aaj gulsitaan ko kis ne, hai chaadar pehnayi hui

Khabar na thi talaf ki kya, yaaro tumhen koi

Daanistaah kyon hai raah meri, aaj yun sajayi hui

Kar raha hun main bayaan, haqeeqat ko aaj

logo Mere dard ko na samajhna tum, meri duhayi hui

Maana ke raaz hotey hain har dil men , pinhaan

Tumhaare dil men kya hai kaho, baat chhupayi hui

Khush they hum tanhayi men, ai dosto khud ke saath

Juda kyon hum se ab, hamari tanhayi hui

Kabhi tu hi tha mehfil ki raunaq, jaan uski tu

Kyon lagti hai, ai yaar mere, teri shakl satayi hui

Bharam tera chaman men hai, rakhiyo tu sambhaal kar

Fikr nahin hai 'sahil' mujhe , gar ruswayi hui

3.

Imtehaan na lo tum meri aarzoo ka

Main to muntazir hun kisi adoo ka

Maana, jhonke nassem ke hain dilkash

Be hijaab ho jaanan, paas karo tum aabroo ka

Zahn nahin, dil hai zabaan mahabat ki

Fayeda na uthao tum raat ki guftagu ka

Yun shab ko niklogi to maand hoga chaand

Kya hoga batao, phir izhaar e jugnu ka

Dosto, zabt e girya ki na do hidayat mujhe,

Bahen na ashk mere, kya hoga ravaan joo ka

Maqaam tera apna hai, ai khazaan , per

Samjhaun kaise dil ko main, haal rang o boo ka

Manaaun kahan tak aawaara dil ko, main

Yaro batao, kya hoga meri khoo ka

Ai joo e ravaan, tu thahar ja zara

Paas kar, lab per baithe us sukoot joo ka

'Sahil', muntazir tha Iqbal haqeeqat ka, lekin

Gar mil jaaye manzil to kya hoga justaju ka

4.

Jalwa tanhayi ka,

Kabhi yahan bhi baith kar dekh lo

Suno ge tum dil ki sada

Tanhayi men, ai 'sahil' mian

Nahin hota hai insan, khud se juda

Kabhi yahan bhi baith kar dekh ko

Pao ge taskin kamaal ki

Dil baneyga naghma saaz

Kh- moshi se aa kar milo

Dekho nakhra, uska naaz

Paoge taskin kamaal chi

Saara jahan isi men hai

Nahin hai manzil aur koi

Kashti e zeest hai girdaab men

Nahin hai sahil aur koi

Ghazab hai ki yeh tanhayi

Saara jahan isi men hai

5.

Jo dil me aaye 'sahil' wohi kaam kar

Ravaan darya ki ma-nind irqaam kar

Nahin hota hai kuchh bhi bin qasd kabhi

Ai bashar, tu zakhmon ka mo'aafi se iltiyam kar

Junoon ka hona bhi zururi hai saaqi

Tu jaam men doobne ka intezaam kar

Tah khaana to nasheman hai iblees ka

Ai bande, jo karna hai, sar e baam kar

Bhooli hai yeh duniya naam izzat ka

Ai bashar, tu insaan ka ehtiraam kar

Ufuq ko dekh, ghuroob ho chala hai aaftaab

Kaar apne tu musafir, sar anjaam kar

Tafreeq kaisi, khuda to sabka ek hai

Tu har aasitaan per 'sahil', ja salaam kar

6.

Main kuchh bhi nahin, sab khuda ki ata hai

Kitna haseen manzar hai, yeh kaunsi jagah hai

Khwaab iram ke aur firdaus ki tamanna,

Kyon lagta hai kabhi, zindagi tu saza hai

Kab tak rahenge naqsh e pa zameen per

Kya puchhta hai shaikh, sab us ki riza hai

Ik safar hai hayat, saza kya aur kya jaza

Yaro, iik lamha aur, kul zees ik lamha hai

Ya rab, takhleeq hai teri yeh insan nayaab

Tu hi bata farishta kaun aur bala kya hai

Marhala hai zeest, isey qaafila hi samajh

'Sahil', maikadah aaj to kal khaanqah hai

7.

Khandar se guftagu kaisi, jab khud hi be jaan ho

Zinda ho gar dil to phir, guftagu aasaan ho

Be shak be zabaan hai, be hiss nahin hai pathhar

Gar dekh sako tum aansu, to guftagu aasaan ho

Uth te hain valvale be sa saakhtagi se jab

Khamosh hoti hai sada, dard ho ya fughaan ho

Machalte they armaan kabhi, be tabaanah, yaro

Ab rota hai be bas yeh dil, koi to armaan ho

Mat bhoolna tu 'sahil' kabhi, rishta jabal o darya ka

Pathhar agar na roye to, darya kyonkar ravaan ho

8.

Ujaale ki nahin,baat hoti hai andheri raat ki

Haqeeqat se baeed yahan khuraafaat ki

Mere alfaaz kya denge mere honey ki gawahi

Jab zameen khud zaamin hogi, ik roz is baat ki

Muntazir rehti hai zindagi, fana ki sar ta sar

Us aakhiri saans ki, wo zulmat bhari raat ki

Momin ko kyon aate hain khayal kafirana

Saqi,kya yehi asaas hai tere kharabaat ki

Jab zindagi khud karti hai baaten nijaat ki

Koi to samjhao yaro, ehmiyat kaenaat ki

Be mohaba hai itna is daur ka insan

Mat karo mujhse baaten tum mohaabaat ki

Hungama e zeest ne kiye valvale kh-mosh

Kyon karte ho zikr yaro ab lutf e jazbaat ki

Gar paikar e ghazal bana le zindagi ko 'sahil'

Mahsoos na hogi zururat , tujhe qalam o dawaat ki

9.

Aaj yahan kal wahan, yun hi ravaan hai kaarwaan

Phir dekhiye naar ko, aur udta sa uska dhuaan

Saath reh kar waqt bitana, laazim ha ai mir mian

Kisey kahenge thikana, aur kisey varna aashiaan

Khana nashin ko kiya, khana ba dosh tu ne, mir

Manzil jab saraab thi, baandha kyon tu ne paimaan

Chaley jab ghar se saqi, zulmat bhari yeh shaam thi

Tilism mehfil ki samjha, sahar sa kaisa yeh samaan

Dil ke daagh rakh pinhaan, zaalim hai yeh daur bahot

Kisey khabar aur chaak karey, ai bismil, tera yeh damaan

Mohre aur pyaade hain sab, sab ki chaal hai apni

Bisaat e zindagi se behtar, shatranj hai aasaan

Ai wahdaniat ke qaail, yeh zameen bhi to usi ki hai

Jis ja per baitha hai tu 'sahil', wohi hai aasitaan

Takhliqaat usi ki hai, hum nadi woh bahr

Tarsa aur yahood kaun, kaun brahman kaun musalman

8.

Musallat hai insaan, insan per aaj

Doosron ke sar o saamaan per aaj

Maah per daagh zaahiran nahin hain

Ke daagh hain sab, is ke daamaan per aaj

Daulat parasti ka shikaar hai yeh

Jaane kehte hain kaise honhaar hai yeh

Ghulaam ana ka, andaaz kaafirana

Khayaali ghodon per sawaar hai yeh

Isey parwa nahin kisi baat ki bhi

Subh imroz, aayenda raat ki bhi

Sitam raseedah hai hayaat

Isey fikr nahin hai kaaenaat ki bhi

Kaun samjhaayega isey, kaho

Kaun bachaayega isey, kaho

Yeh zeest nahin kaarzaar hai ab

Kaun pehnaayega chaadar, kaho

9.

Ai bashar tu jeena aur marna seekh

Sar jhuka kar chalna seekh

Khuzu se badh kar kuchh nahin hai

Khuda ko yaad karna seekh

Yeh insaan bahot deewaana hai

Vahshat zada yeh zamana hai

Bhej payambar khudaya tu

Gar jahaan ko tujhe bachaana hai

10.

Mahlon me reh kar bhi insan ghareeb hai

Soch 'sahil' yeh baat kitni ajeeb hai,

Khushi to rehti hai zar se koson door

Taskeen, kaun jaane kis ka naseeb hai

Na sitaare falak ke, na chaman ke gul

Asli daulat to yaro sabr o shaqeeb hai

Shaheedon men shaheed to masiha tha

Qurbaani ki misaal to saleeb hai

Dars de koi to isey zabt e sukhan ka

Yaro, phisalti bahot yeh zaalim jeeb hai

Karzaar hai zindagi muqabila karte raho

Fallsafe ke liye to bahot kaafi khateeb hai

Kashti ko sambhaale na khuda, dosto

Jahan ka paasbaan, to maula raqeeb hai

Kyon aate hain khwaab jannat ke baar ha

'Sahil', kya baargaah e khuda, ab qareeb hai

11.

Laakh samjhaya zahn ko, armaan kahan maante hain

Kab ruka hai ravaan darya, hum to itna jaante hain

Kar lo bahas, firasat mando, jahan ki asliat per

Hum takte hain falak ko roz, haqeeqat hum jaante hain

Tu dil fareb hai zindagi, mere dil ka aayena kehta hai

Aur muntazir hai thaka nafas, ajal ka hum maante hain

Kitna gehra hai sumundur, puchhta kyon hai, kashti sawaar

Jab paasbaan hai khuda tera, har toofaan yeh jaante hain

Bita le dost tu zindagi lamha ba lamha, ai 'sahil'

Falsafa hai justaju mafhoom ki, hum khub isey jaante hain.

12.

Kaam, naam aur anjaam, yeh sab tai hai

Sahib kaun, kaun bibi, ghulam bhi tai hai

Mehnat, mushaqat, aaraam tai hai

Kya hai mubaah, kya haraam, bhi tai hai

Kis pesh raft ki baat ho rahi hai, bande

Jab zamin ka haakim aur aasmaan tai hai

Kyon pucchta hai faasila manzil tak ka, raahi

Jab umr teri moiyyan hai, har gaam tai hai

Zindagi to jee, nasheb o faraaz se mil

Baad e marg 'sahil', dawaam bhi tai hai

13.

Dushman na ho to, khud ko dushman bana lo

Tanhayi ko 'sahil' phir anjuman bana lo

Na gul hon na gulshan na baaghbaan koi

Tum apne hi dil men, ik chaman saja lo

Kaenaat ka maalik mahz maula hi hai

Tum aankhon men hi apna, gagan basa lo

Har ja hain khaar, yeh gulsitaan hai kaisa,

Nazar se tum dosto, khaar ko saman bana lo

Na uth sako agar tum, kabhi udaasi se apni

Phir, tabassum se apne hi man ko behla lo

Do dhaara zabaan ko miyaan me rakho

Maahaul ko apne zaufgan bana lo

Ghurbat men rehne walo faramosh na hona

Yeh khaak hai tumhari, is watan ko saja lo

Samet te ho kya kuchh, hayat me tum yaro

Jaana hai haath khaali, ik kafan to bana lo

Anjum to nahin ho yaro, phir chamkoge kaise

Raah zulmat men deekhao, naam raushan kara lo

'Sahil', tarasho tum zahn mem aqdaar puraane

Dushwaar hai jiddat, isey kuhan bana lo

14.

Chaman ka paasbaan hai usi ka baaghbaan

Khaak honge ik din gul o khar, baaghbaan raftgaan

Falak per hain mah o anjum, kal hogi shab e taar

Sunenge phir unhin ki hum, kisi se daastaan

Be niyaaz, be parwa, na waqt paristish ke liye

Ai la abaali insaan, tera ravaiyya hai gurezaan

Kab tak rahega zamin per, ai insan, tu hi bata

Muntazir hai, har lamha, dekh muztarib aasmaan

Kostey ho kyon qismat ko, ai logo, tum hi batao

Zaalim nahin hai waqt maano, wo to ho hai meharban

Jab hogi maghfirat har haal men, ai bashar

Gunaah tasleem kar, gar hai tu na pashemaan

Jab talak na jaanega haeeqat ko tu insaan

Man rahega tera udaas, dil tera giryaan

15.

Kyon chahta hai le jaana tu, fuzool phir apne saath

Is majaaz libaas ka chaak daaman aur iska

Na rukna, ai 'sahil' kahin waqt hi na ruk jaaye

Chalte rehna gaam ba gaam, tu misl e darya, ravaan.

Peeri bhi ik marhala hai zindagi ka, dost

Na sahi jawaani saath, tu nahin hai na rawaan

Abhi to khursheed falak per hai hamsafar wo tera

Kaise hon phir mah o anjum tu hi bata, uryaan

16.

Kamsin wo bahot shaam thi, shab ki wo ghulaam thi

Maikade men tere saqi, raunaq e gulfaam thi

Nahin banega wali tu, insan hai insan hi reh

Qasd kyon ki 'sahil' tu ne, jo aaghaaz se hi na kaam thi

Bhatakte rahey zameen per, be hosh o hawaas hum

Jis shai ki thi justaju bahot, wo taskeen sar e baam thi

Ravaan raha wo mustaqil sumundur tak, darya

Asaas uski pukhta thi, usey tamanna e dawaam thi

Danke bajaaye darogh ne, ja kar gali gali

Kh-mosh rahi be bas sadaqat, wo jo badnaam thi

Khoya sa kyon hai 'sahil' tu, kuch to hamen bata

Kya parwaaz hui hai andaleeb, jo hum kalaam thi

Kis kaam yeh shaan o shaukat, yeh kaakh o gulzaar, yaro

Yaad aati hai aaj bhi, wo tanhayi jo gumnaam thi

Khud hi men wo daur, har taur se mukammal tha

Namkin thi wo zindagi, jo waqt ki na ghulaam thi

Waqt laga hai seekhne men, ai 'sahil' hamen

Mubaah kya tha jahan men, aur kaunsi shai haraam thi

17.

Istehza na karo yaro kahin ro na padun

Behte aansuon ko phir kya shabnam kahoge

Ya jataa te hamdardi unheen ashkon ko phir

Mere zakhmon ka tum ungen marham kahoge

Maano aaye gar chehre per tabassum kabhi

Masarrat kahoge khwah alamat e gham kahoge

Toote huay jaam aur yeh bikhri hui mai

Saqi, isey raunaq e mehfil ya darham kahoge

Pyala jo deekhaye nairangi e aalam ka

Fusoon gar kahoge ya jaam e jam kahoge

Maaney jo baat tumhari har gaam per hamesha

Usey gharazmand kahoge ya humdum kahoge

Roothi hai bulbul jaane hum se kyon 'sahil'

Ab tum bhi nahin, kya hamen sanam kahoge.

18.

Siva rab ke jahan ko kaun sambhaalega

Jo likhi hai usne, usey kaun taalega

Jo himmat na haare toofaanon ke aage

Wo maula ki riza se qismat ko manaa lega

Raushan ho dil men jiske tajalli e khuda

Wo veerani men bhi dil ko, saja lega

Yaad rakhna tum dosto wo paasbaan hai sabka

Khuda momin ko ghaflat se bacha lega

Yaro, kya karni hai mehfil janaaze ke liye

'Sahil', khud ko bhi kaandhon per utha lega

19.

Na daanista ho gunaah, to gunaah nahin hai

Gar dil se na uthe to wo aah nahin hai

Zamin per to hotey hain maah jabeen 'sahil'

Falak per na ho to woh maah nahin hai

Kar daalo gar raakh to kam kam na karo

Sulagti hui naar kabhi tabaah nahin hai

Raasta chuno to soch samajh kar yaro

Pauncchaaye pagdandi, per wo raah nahin hai

Surur to hai saqi, lekin asl nahin hai

Jo nazron se pilaya wo baadah nahin hai

Kya deekhayega hamen tu raasta , ai 'sahil'

Jabke wali bhi to aakhir khuda nahin hai

20.

Kya karunga main le kar yeh dawa, bata

Jab mere marz ka ilaaj, chaaragar,hai dua

Na mila gar silah meri ilteja ko koi

Teri dawa ka hoga , phir hashr kya, bata

Kyon thahra hai bata, kaarwaan, ai mir

Khaanabadosh ki aawaaragi ko hua hai kya

Ravani ki thi jisey kal talak, tamanna

Aaj sumundur ki doori, bani haail hai kya

Badla na dasht o sahra na mah o anjum koi

Mat suna tu kahani, kya hua hai, bata

Khayal tere bhi 'sahil' ajab hain mian

Kabhi na saaz hai tabiyat, kabhi jawani ravaan

21.

Dagmagayen ne qadam imaan se kabhi

Kaash, nikle na haaye zabaan se kabhi

Zamin per bahot hain duahwaarian

Yaro, takrayen na hum aasman se kabhi

Hawas dekhi hai, ai sumundur teri

Ab mila de darya e rawaan se kabhi

Hazaaron se milte hain yaro har roz

Koi to mila do ek insaan se kabhi

Thak gaya hun khudaya tang raahon se main

Deekha de mujhe raah aasaan kabhi

Bhoola hai insaan, libaas apna hi 'sahil'

Deekha de usey, uska chaak daamaan kabhi

22.

Mat karo baaten tum dil ke khaanon ki

Daftar e ulfat hai na kaam armanon ki

Seekh lo yaro aadaab mezbaani ke

Phir, karna baaten tum mehmaani ki

Zikr khizr ka, kabhi ikseer e hyaat ka

Koi shakl to dikhao mujhe jaavidanon ki

Har kuche men ghoomte hain aaj, hosh mand

Yaro, koi to baat karo be ghar deewaanon ki

Jab karti hai raushan hijaab ko qandeel

Ghalati kya hai kaho maasoom parwanon ki

Har lamhe men pinhaan hai ik zindagi

Baaten karte ho dosto tum zamanon ki

Khaar tak nahin, gulon ka kya kehna

Be rehmi dekhiye, haal ke baghbanon ki

Saqi, na rind na jaam na hi mai kahin

Tu puchhta hai kaifiyat maikhaane ki

Usey kya darayega kaho zalzala koi

Jis ke dil men tamanna hai aasmanon ki

Na dikhao usey tevar apne, toofaanon

Jisey aadat ho paiham imtehanon ki

Mah o anjum ki sair aur guftagu falak se

'Sahil', koi to baat karey yahan ke insaanon ki

23.

Dagmagayen ne qadam imaan se kabhi

Kaash, nikle na haaye zabaan se kabhi

Zamin per bahot hain duahwaarian

Yaro, takrayen na hum aasman se kabhi

Hawas dekhi hai, ai sumundur teri

Ab mila de darya e rawaan se kabhi

Hazaaron se milte hain yaro har roz

Koi to mila do ek insaan se kabhi

Thak gaya hun khudaya tang raahon se main

Deekha de mujhe raah aasaan kabhi

Bhoola hai insaan, libaas apna hi 'sahil'

Deekha de usey, uska chaak daamaan kabhi

24.

Jazba e mahabat bhi ik futoor hai

Na jaane kiska yeh zaalim qusoor hai

Husn bhi to teri inayat hai zuroor

Maula, husn ke aage dil majboor hai

Chaman na gesu na bulbul ki sada

Yaad e khuda hi dilon ka suroor hai

Shab hai to mah o anjum ka noor hai

Subh ka aaftaab goya rab ka zuhoor hai

Yeh naaz o nakhra, yeh ishwa tera, ai zeest

Puchha jab maut se, kaha us ne ghuroor hai

Rukhsat hota hai jo jahan se, jaane do

'Sahil', Hangama e janaza bhi kya dastoor hai

25.

Nawa, jaras e shabgeer ki suno

Phir, daastaan raanjhe aur heer ki suno

Andaleeb ka geet, laila majnun ka preet

Phir, ghazal suno to 'Taqi Meer' ki suno

Larzaayen qadam, imaan dagmagaaye

Tatolo zahn ko,aur zameer ki suno

Mashwara deta hai waqt har lamha

Hamsafar hai, us raahgeer ki suno

Paon ki bediyaan bhi deti hain sada

Ai aawaara dil,us zanjeer ki suno

Jo rakhte hain dil men tasawwur khuda ka

Koi to kaho un se, us tasweer ki suno

Ai munsif, maana raub o daab shaikh ka

Kabhi to mujh jaise daamangeer ki suno

Maana ke wali bhi koi maula to nahin

Yaro hai to woh momin, us safeer ki suno

Hairat se tak raha hun, jahan ko main, 'sahil'

Jahan dekho, shor e daar o geer hi suno

26.

Na sunao koi taraane, na sahi

Na ao tum maanane, na sahi

Hum tanha hi baithe acche hain

Na aao dil lagaane na sahi

Yaadon men taaza hai waqt purana

Na sunao koi fasaane, na sahi

So jayenge yaro, rotey huay

Na aao tum sulaane, na sahi

Shaam hogi shab, shab sahar, be shak

Na aao raah dikhlaane, na sahi

Aaftaab humsafar hai har gaam, dosto

Na aao hamen jagaane , na sahi.

Mafhoom zindagi ka kya hai, 'sahil'

Na aaye koi samjhaane, na sahi

27.

Rakhte hain hum bhi nazar dekho kaisi

Ke hogi kal ki sahar dekho kaisi

Yaro, hogi fajr har shab ki, maana

Hogi ubharti magar dekho kaisi

Haseen hon gar rang sahar ke tumhaare

Guzarti hai phir do pahar dekho kaisi

Hum to chale zulmaton men logo

Ab hogi kal ki raahguzar dekho kaisi

Bandagi men basar ki hayat, 'sahil'

Ab maula ki hogi mehr dekho kaisi

28.

Na dair o haram men sukun 'sahil'

Na maikhaane, na rang e mehfil

Kya uth gaya hai chain o aman

Ya is daur ka insaan, hai be dil

Har jagah hai shor o hungama

Na behr ko taskeen, na sahil

Asl bhi hua hai gharq yahan

Har shai hai to bas yun hi baatil

Kahin to hoga koi, 'sahil'

Bashar jo na ho ghaail

Karun phir main usey salaam

Koi banda aisa gar jaaye, mil

29.

Ravaan hai darya, ravaan aaftaab

Kis se guftagu, kaisa khitaab

Misl e toofaan hain valvale

Dil hai so, to bahot be taab

Ravaan hai darya, ravaan aaftaab

Sawaal hain so, to be shumaar

Pursish kis se aur kya jawaab

Fehrist e zahn so khaali hai

Denge kis ko kya hisaab

Ravaab hai darya, ravaan aaftaab

Kabhi ijaara tha yeh sumundur ka

Aaj jidhar dekho hai girdaab

Sukun kya paayega, aii bande tu

Jab asl se door hain tere, khwaab

Ravaan hai darya, ravaan aaftaab

Bismil hain jahan men sab

Daagh liye ghumta hai, maahtaab

Jo chaaho samjho , yaro

Gayi haya, haya hijaab

Ravaan hai darya, ravaan aaftaab.

Soorat nahin, ho seerat haseen

Ho saman ya ho gulaab

'Sahil', kaar hon nek, miley sawaab

Ravaan hai darya, ravaan aaftaab

30.

Darya ka paani sumundur se kam hai

Chalte reh 'sahil' jab tak jaan o dum hai

Jaise suraj ravaan hai subh se shaam tak

Na khushi usey na hi ranj o alam hai

Kabhi to dekh udte huay parindon ko

Ism e zeest hai safar, aur kya lum hai

Parkha hai tere khaanon ko, ai dil

Kahin sukun hai aur kahin gham hai

Ek gul hi kaafi hai, ai vaaiz mujhe

Wohi jannat, wohi mera chaman hai

Dil ki sada kh- moshi hai 'sahil'

Wohi mahabat ka sukhan hai

31.

Shireen hai teri zabaan , maana

Jaanam, chashm qaatil to hai

Koi to sun lo sur mere, yaro

Be sura sahi, lekin dil to hai

Tu hai saaqi, main hun, jaam hai

Na sahi hujum, rang e mehfil to hai

Zakhm sil bhi jaayen to kya hua

Dosto, dil be bas ghaail to hai

Dafn kiya naghmon ko zamaane ne

Shukr hai jhankaar e payal to hai

Na miley manzil na sahi, ya rab

Teri justaju, aarzoo e manzil to hai

Chhord jaaye zeest kabhi , to kya

Humsafar, woh qaza zaalim to hai

Samajhta hai 'sahil' zindagi, khub

Gunaahgaar sahi logo, aalim to hai

32.

Main to bana lun ghamon ka, aashiana magar

Kya kahega yeh zaalim, zamana magar

Aaj chaman ko dekhta hai maayus, baghbaan

Kal bulbul ka naghma tha, suhana magar

Guzaari jis ne raat mah o anjum ko takte

Aashiq tha zurur, tha deewaana magar

Sula de ai lori, dikha de chund khwaab

Mat bhulna aftaab ko jagana, magar

Jaga kar suraj ko, subh ko bulana

Mat bhulna,ai lori, mujhe uthana magar

Bikhar jaata hai wo mahabat men, maana

Zururi hai 'sahil' dil ka lagana, magar

Haseen ho bahot, yun hi aati rehna

Ai, yaado, laazim hai kya satana magar.

33.

Maangi hai zindagi ki dua jis ne meri

Ya rab, usi qaatil ne to li hai jaan meri

Har insaan ki koshish, naqsh e pa hon qaaim

Kisey fursat hai yaro, suney daastaan meri

Kiya karte hain log jo chaahe dil un ka

Kis ne poochhi hai kabhi koi haan meri

Suna de faisla munsif, saza e maut de

Kar de tu zindagi phir aasaan meri

Zabt e sukhan laazimi hai 'sahil', aagaah rehna

Kahin chal na jaaye shamsheer zabaan , meri

34.

Woh aashiq hi kya jo roya na ho

Woh daaman hi kya jo dhoya na ho

Woh gul tumhara nahin hai yaro

Jis ka tukhm bhi tum ne boya na ho

Kaandha na diya to ghamkhwaari kaisi

Woh baar hi kya jo dhoya na ho

Woh paak kya hoga daaman kaho

Jo aab e kauser men ja kar duboya na ho

Khufta rehna bhi ik kamaal hai, 'sahil'

Woh jaagega kya jo soya na ho.

35.

Ghamkhwaar ban kar samjhaane gaye

Afsos! be naqaab dost pehchaane gaye

Shaahk se girta tha patta, saba sahaare

Haif! Woh etimaad ke ab zamaane gaye

Dhun apni men mast, raah apni bana kar

Toofaanon se ladte woh deewaane gaye

Dilon se uth gaya jab yaqeen hi yaro

Phir mandir aur masjid, woh aasitaane gaye

Samajhte they tujhe hum majnoon kabhi

'Sahil', dil waale to dekh aaj veeraane gaye

37.

Khoon gul ka ho ya chaman ka

Lahu tapkege har badan ka

Surkh hoga rang har khaar ka

Har barg o baar o saman ka

Dahshat na dekhi jahan men aisi

Rang, laal muntazar kafan ka

Num chashm hai baaghbaan ki

Tadpega zameer is zaman ka

Kya haal hai 'sahil' tu hi bata

Tere pyaare se is watan ka

Pesh raft ki dhun hai, yaro

Kya kahun is dasht o diman ka

38.

Kya khilenge phool us dasht o diman men

Kya jaagega zameer kabhi insaan ke man men

Kam hogi vahshat kya jahaan men kabhi

Kya hogi kam kaifiyat, dahshat ke fan men

Ai gunahgaar, teri chashm e num suboot hai

Bande, veeraani hai aaj tere chaman men

Maayoos kyon hai, ai bagbaan soch

Gul nahin, khaar ugte hain iblees ke tan men

Aaj bhoola hai bashar khuda ko, 'sahil'

Kotahi hai bahot is ki lagan men

39.

Naseeb apna hai gar is ujde dayaar men

Nahin hai is se zyada kuchh sansaar men

Mehrbaan hai hum per ab khazaan bahot

Batao, ai gulo, kahan they tum bahaar men

Na dil saaf, na aitbaar ainey per koi

Aaj dekhte hain log chehra zangaar men

Aisa jangal bana hai jahan aaj, dosto

Ek doosre ko dhundte hain log shikaar men

Na kisiko taskeen, na hi dil ko aaraam

Doobi baithi hai duniya sab, afkaar men

Kaisi be dardi ka zamana hai, yaro

Sur tak nahin hai payal ki jhankaar men

Lutf be qaraari ka le kar dekh, 'sahil'

Kya rakha hai tere jazba e qaraar men

40.

Daastaan e 'Sahil'

Yaad aate hain ab bhi woh din pech o taab ke

Guzaari theen raaten bin neend o khwaab ke

Andhere they aise har taraf jab mere

Goya, falak bhi dekhta tha khwaab mahtaab ke

Chaman tha per khazaan thi, bahaar ke saraab

Dar ba dar phirte they, liye tassavur gulaab ke

Kaarzaar e hayaat ne diye dars mujhe

Duaen karte jao, muntazir na rehna jawaab ke

Sitara nahin hai tu chamkega kaise

Asl chhord kar na daurna peeche saraab ke

Aaj bhoola hai insan maahiyat aadaab ki

Dhundne men laga hai zariye asbaab ke

Dosto himmat na haara yeh 'sahil' kabhi

Sahil ko toofan kya daraayenge aab ke

41.

Jisey kehta hai tu 'sahil' mera dasht o diman,

Wohi khazan ka khazana hai mera chaman

Behta hai gar aab e kauser kahin,

To mere bhi dar pe hai darya, jaman

Hungama hai itna jahan men aaj yaro,

Baat wohi karo jis men ho kuch vazan

Samajhna tum yaro kaamyaab zindagi

Mil jaaye gar kaandha uthaane ko kafan

'Sahil', zinda hai dil men aur zinda rahega,

Jab tak nafas hai mera hubb e watan

42.

Nahin aati hai jab wafa mujhe

Mat bana jaanam tu khuda mujhe

Sulagta shola hun, bujh jaunga

Mat de tu ab hawa mujhe

Kya fayeda tera, ai zameer bata

Raasti ki raah per chala mujhe

Muztar hai dil, ilaaj mushkil

Ai bulbul, tu hi aa kar sula mujhe

Aftaab ne gar na uthaya kal

Ai qaza, aa kar le ja mujhe

'Sahil', aisa bhi kya faur hai

Tere haq men karni hai dua mujhe

43.

Kya hum na kehte they gham buri bala hai

Yahan kaun kab kis se khushi se mila hai

Jabeen per shikan, baatin men valvale

Jisey dekho sukun nahin, dil men gilah hai

Yaqin nahin hai chaarahgar marham pe teri

Varna, bata paani se kaun kab jala hai

Shak aur shubah haavi hai, yaqeen nadarad

Kabhi kehte they ghar jisey dost, aaj qila hai

Vajah kuch to hogi muztarib maahaul ki

'Sahil', kya kabhi patta bhi bin hawa hila hai

Gar uth bhi jaaye etimaad insaan per kabhi

Yaro, arsh e bareen men sab ka maula hai

44.

Tum ko dekh kar tabiyat kuchh ghabrayi hai

Ai bahaaro, lahd per yeh kaisi aaraayi hai

Usey sair kya karaoge, chaman ki kaho

Jisey khazaan ke libaas se shansaayi hai

Yeh sozish kaisi, naghma e bulbul men aaj

Jaane kis ghata ki ab, woh khabar laayi hai

Shaakh e gul murjhaaye,to num chashm hai maali

Us raunaq e mehfil se behtar, meri tanhayi hai

Yeh dil nahin sahra hai gul kya khilaoge

Jahan gul o khaar men mustaqil ladaayi hai

Shaam ko lutf e jaam, subh ko dair o haram

Naaseh, kya yeh bhi koi paarsaayi hai

Dair o haram na maikhaane se vaasta

Kooche men vaaiz, bata kyon ruswaayi hai

Kaasa ba dast hai fakir, per hai shaadmaan

Yaro, kya hum ne ameeri ki saza paayi hai

Reh jaam o subu o saaqi se door, 'sahil'

Paarsaayi men hi teri bhalaayi hai

45.

Nahin aati hai jab wafa mujhe

Mat bana jaanam tu khuda mujhe

Sulagta shola hun, bujh jaunga

Mat de tu ab hawa mujhe

Kya fayeda tera, ai zameer bata

Raasti ki raah per chala mujhe

Muztar hai dil, ilaaj mushkil

Ai bulbul, tu hi aa kar sula mujhe

Aftaab ne gar na uthaya kal

Ai qaza, aa kar le ja mujhe

'Sahil', aisa bhi kya faur hai

Tere haq men karni hai dua mujhe

46.

Be rukhi dekhiye aaj ke mezbaanon ki

Fikr nahin hai koi unhen mehmaanon ki

Adab se mahroom yeh bashar kidhar jayega

Baat mat kijiye be ehtiraam zabaanon ki

Rahm dil nahin hai zamana aaj ka

Kisey fursat hai soche, wo nazaranon ki

Peer o murshid, sant o fakir, haif!

Yeh nahin to baat kya hai aasitanon ki

Har lamhe men pinhaan hai hayaat kaamil

Baat karte hain log guzre zamanon ki

Khaar tak nahin gulon ka kya kehna

Aaj murawwat dekhiye baaghbaanon ki

Karti hai raushan jab qandeel hijaab ko

Ghalati kya hai kaho,maasoom parwanon ki

Na saqi na rind na khumgaah kahin

Kya puchhte ho dosto, kaifiyat maikhaanon ki

Be baak hai wo insan, ai toofaanon

Jisey aadat ho musalsal imtehaanon ki

Usey kya daraayega zalzala, 'sahil' bata

Tamanna ho jiske dil men aasmaanon ki

47.

Tum ko dekh kar tabiyat kuchh ghabrayi hai

Ai bahaaro, lahd per yeh kaisi aaraayi hai

Usey sair kya karaoge, chaman ki kaho

Jisey khazaan ke libaas se shansaayi hai

Yeh sozish kaisi, naghma e bulbul men aaj

Jaane kis ghata ki ab, woh khabar laayi hai

Shaakh e gul murjhaaye,to num chashm hai maali

Us raunaq e mehfil se behtar, meri tanhayi hai

Yeh dil nahin sahra hai gul kya khilaoge

Jahan gul o khaar men mustaqil ladaayi hai

Shaam ko lutf e jaam, subh ko dair o haram

Naaseh, kya yeh bhi koi paarsaayi hai

Dair o haram na maikhaane se vaasta

Kooche men vaaiz, bata kyon ruswaayi hai

Kaasa ba dast hai fakir, per hai shaadmaan

Yaro, kya hum ne ameeri ki saza paayi hai

Reh jaam o subu o saaqi se door, 'sahil'

Paarsaayi men hi teri bhalaayi hai

48.

Maana ke raunaq bahot hai, rangin hai mehfil

Tanhayi ne bana diya hai, dil mera sang dil

Na uthen gar valvale to kya karega dil

Kya hoga uski dhadkan ko, tu bata, 'sahil'

Waqt si marham nahin, ai chaarahgar samajh

Gehre jitne bhi hon zakhm, ho jaate hain mundamil

Aafaton ka saamna kar ke, ai 'sahil'

Seekh liya hai main ne bhi,rehna khush dil

Masaail to bahot hain, koi to batao hal

Peeri men hai jawaan ab bhi, yeh kambakht dil

49.

Humne maikade men eid manaayi, aaj

Dair o haram men ki ghazal sarayi aaj

Ta' ajub hai ke simoom bhi, yaro

Bhes badal kar milne, hai aayi aaj

Ai baad e saba tu aayi to hai, lekin

Kya tu koi naveed laayi hai aaj

Chalte aaye hain raah apni per hum

Dekhte hain kis mod per qismat laayi hai aaj

Hum samajhte they 'sahil', 'taqi meer' ko shahenshah

Na jaane kis ne hamen, yeh ghazal sunayi hai aaj

50.

Saqi, na sahi na pila tu mai e naab aaj

Yeh bata kyon hai khaali, ma'bad men mehraab, aaj

Aaye they tere dar pe liye umeed hum, saqi

Ke milegi yahan peene ko mai e naab , aaj

Varna, jaate ghar raqeeb ke, soch zara saqi

Milti wahan khul kar hamen sam e sharaab, aaj

Rukhsat hua hai kaarwaan, mud kar to dekh, mir

Dekhenge sahra men, gul o chaman ke khwaab, aaj

Ja chuka hai qaafila, tanha hain chaand sitaare

Tu hai 'sahil', zameen hai, na gilah na sawaab, aaj

Ajab hai kitni baat yeh tanhayi men hai sukun

Kh-mosh hai dekh dil tera, nahin betaab, aaj

Kashti e hayaat bhi ab jhumti hai faza men

Taskeen hai sumundur ko, nahin koi gharqaab, aaj

So lena 'sahil' khwaabon ki baahon men tu aaj

Na dene honge kisi ko, sawalon ke jawaab aaj

51.

Milta hai sukun to inabat men

Maula ki khidmat o ibadat men

Kya rakha hai yaro, tum hi kaho

Aaj ke darham o raqaabat men

Thaam lo haath phir firasat ka

Basar na ho zeest adavat men

Fikr kya karni, aate hain toofaan

Jaanaan, har rishta e mahabat men

Zareefana hai yaro wo hi insan

Jo zeest guzaare zarafat men

Khel qismat ka hai, tum kya karoge

Hanste raho phir shaqaavat men

Aao baharo muntazir hai chaman

Na rahega mustaqil, taravat men

Mubarak ho usko, ai 'sahil' mian

Jisey milti ho taskeen, rafaqat men

52.

Kuchh gharq sa rehta hun main

Kuchh khaali sa rehta hun main

Jaise jaam o subu hain tere, Saqi

Bin mai, tanha sa rehta hun main

Jaam mahabat ka pilaye koi

Mujhe aa kar sulaye koi

Neenden kahan hain kaho meri

Yaro, khwaabon se milaayekoi

Baarish ki boonden kab girengi

Un se aankhen num kab hongi

Tadap zameen ki kab mitegi

Sada bulbul ki kab goonjegi

Sookhe darya men aab kab hoga

Andheron men dosto charaagh kab hoga

Tishnagi bhi zaalim hai 'bahot

'Sahil', yeh dasht o sahra, baagh kab hoga

53.

Kaho yeh kis shai ka bazaar tha

Kaun yahan kis se do chaar tha

Dekha chharaagar ko aaj ghoomte huay

Kaho kaun sa shaikh yaan beemar tha

Dalaal dekhe, dekhe parinde haseen

Kaho kaun kis ka shikaar e bazaar tha

Kabhi chalti thi duniya us raaste per

Raasti ka jo kul rahguzaar tha

Ab bhi hai khushbu, ai yaro, dekho

Kabhi apna bhi aisa gulzaar tha

Aaj guzarte huay chund ashk girey,'Sahil'

Bata, kya woh tera hi ujda mazaar tha

54.

Zinda-dil ghamkhwaar ab nahin hain

Aansuon ke aasar ab nahin hain

Sard dilon se ashk kya tapkenge,

Ke garam woh baazaar ab nahin hain

Sambhal kar chalna, ai musafiro tum

Maujooda raahen hamwaar nahin hain

Tujhe dekhte hain dair o haram men,

Saqi Kya jaam o subu o maikhwaar nahin hain

Neend nahin aati hai raat bhar jinhen

Pareshaan hain dosto, bedaar nahin hain

Mausam e bahaar to hai 'sahil', lekin

Chaman men ab wo gul o khaar nahin hain

55.

Aaye hain maikade hum saqi, ke sar zad ho gham

Pi lenge aaj tu jo pilai, udaas hain bahot hum

Guzregi phir shab taskin se, farda ke lenge khwab

Yaad teri bhi aayegi, jab qareeb hoga sanam

Urooj hua jab aaftab, chamak utha tha falak

Phir, kya hua 'sahil' bata, kyon hai yeh shaam e gham

Na puccho yaro daastaan gham ki, gham to hai balaa

Nuskha batao ravaan rahey, jis se rukta hua dum

Naqsh e pa bana gaye ajdaad bhi tere

Mita diya talatum ne har unka qadam

Likhte reh 'sahil' miaan, bana isey shughal

Chhord baaten gham ki tu, utha le tu qalam

Haath men tere jaam ho, qareeb ho tere sanam

Aur kya rakha hai duniya men, bhool tu jaam e jam

56.

Dhuaan kidhar gaya

Sulagti reh gayi hai naar, dukhaan kidhar gaya

Maah o anjum chhup gaye, dukhaan kidhar gaya

Gharq hua sarwat men insaan dekho kaise

Rab ka naam o nishaan nahin, imaan kidhar gaya

Jabal pe dekho kaun hai, hai kiska wo mahal

Imaandaar hai daaman e koh, be imaan kidhar gaya

Chain o aman tha naam uska, ajdaad ke zamane men

Aaj khet kashmir ke lahu men gharq, zaafraan kidhar gaya

Be rahm hai waqt ai hukmiranon, yaad rahey tumhen

Wo raaja aur wo maharaaja, wo sultaan kidhar gaya

Le gaya dukaan 'sahil' uda kar jaane kahan

Sulagti reh gayi hai naar, dhuaan kidhar gaya

57.

Muntazir baitha hai har insaan

Ke farishta e ajal ki sawaari aayegi,

Ai shaikh, sambhal ja

Ik din teri bhi zurur baari aayegi

58.

Sannata yeh kaisa, khaamshaan yeh kaise

Neela nahin hai, aasmaan yeh kaisa

Mil jaaye maula zameen per kabhi

Yeh aarzoo kaisi, mera armaan yeh kaisa

Na naam o nishaan na tasweer koi, phir

Khizar wo kaisa, javidaan wo kaisa

Hifaazat karey na awaam ki jo , shaikh

Numainda wo kaisa, sultaan wo kaisa

Naam Allahrakha, zabaan pe maula

Kaho duniyawalo, insaan wo kaisa

Tafreeq kya hai 'sahil', tu hi bata

Aaj ka bashar, haiwaan hai yeh kaisa

Na zahn men sukoon, na dil ko taskeen

Khudaya, yeh banda tera pareshaan hai kaisa

59.

Daastaan e Musaafir e Zeest

Jis kaarwaan ki talaash thi, wo kehkashaan men kho gaya

Thak kar phir aaj'sahil' bhi, kahin dasht o diman men so gaya

Tabiyat thi kuchh aiasi us ki, har shajar ka woh baar tha

Majboor kiya jab fitrat ne, wo wahin ka phir ho gaya

Dekha jab maidan e jung, har su dekha lahu jab

Sulagte sholay dekh kar, chund ashk phir wo ro gaya

Le mazaa shajar ka tu, mat bhul ghaafil wo kis ka hai

Chalte chalte rahguzar men, tukhm ko jo bo gaya

Mahabat bhi kya shai hai yaro, zinda kab aur kab murda

Maante they apna jisey, wo hi daaman bhigo gaya

Aagaah nahin jo khatron se, milega kya gauharusey

'Sahil', bin pawaar ki kashti le kar, khud ko jo dubo gaya.

60.

Aaye hain maikade hum saqi, ke sar zad ho gham

Pi lenge aaj tu jo pilai, udaas hain bahot hum

Guzregi phir shab taskin se, farda ke lenge khwab

Yaad teri bhi aayegi, jab qareeb hoga sanam

Urooj hua jab aaftab, chamak utha tha falak

Phir, kya hua 'sahil' bata, kyon hai yeh shaam e gham

Na puccho yaro daastaan gham ki, gham to hai balaa

Nuskha batao ravaan rahey, jis se rukta hua dum

Naqsh e pa bana gaye ajdaad bhi tere

Mita diya talatum ne har unka qadam

Likhte reh 'sahil' miaan, bana isey shughal

Chhord baaten gham ki tu, utha le tu qalam

Haath men tere jaam ho, qareeb ho tere sanam

Aur kya rakha hai duniya men, bhool tu jaam e jam

61.

Kya kufr go ghadaar hai

Aur momin imaadaar hai

Khuda ek hai yaro

Sabka woh parwardigar hai

Gira ho zamin per gar

Shajar ka wo baar hai

Udta hai saba ke saath

Barg uska yaar hai,

Hum to hain sahil ke dost

'Sahil' sumundur paar hai

Usey jazbe na samjhao tum

Jazbon ka wo sardaar hai

Jab chaahe 'sahil' ko

Toor pe deedaar hai

Yaad rakho tum hamesh

Wo maula ka khaas yaar hai

62.

Khanabadosh hain sab ai karwaan e meer

Na kisi ke paon men bediyan na koi zanjeer

Yeh aawaaragi hai kaisi koi to samjhao

Kya so gaya hai aadam ka, maula zameer

Dair o haram men chain,na khumgah men surur

Na vaaiz ki zururat, na aasitan e peer

Muztar yeh kitna, yaro sheesha le aao

Koi to dikhao isey is ki tasweer

Na ukhoovat koi na hamdardi kahin

Ya rab, kya insan bana hai iblees ka safeer

Dekh daulat ka nasha, zaalim hai yeh itna

Aaj Ibadat karte hain 'sahil', sirf peer o faqeer

63.

Shabnam kya giri dahaan e gulaab per aaj

Maano, mehr ki ho husn ne kauser ke aab per aaj

Kiran haafize men jaagi, tlfli ki jab janaab

Le gaya tasawwur phir, lab e chenaab per aaj

Kya rakha hai maikade men, vaaiz tu hi bata

Kyon jaate gar aitbaar hota, aap janaab per aaj

Subh o shaam ka shumaar, ginta kya hai, bande

Munhasir nahin hain lamhe tere, inke hisaab per aaj

Chal dair o haraam ko aazma len, ai momin 'sahil'

Uth ta ja raha hai bharosa, saqi ki sharaab per aaj

Socho, ai hukmiranon, beh jaoge varna tum

Sahil pe nahin khade ho, ho lab e girdaab per aaj

64.

Kya ban kar reh gayi hai yeh ijaaradaari faqeeron ki

Kyon dilchaspi nahin hai ulfat men aaj ameeron ki

Kabhi jaam mahabat ke chhalakte they maikhaane men

Saqi, boli lagti hai ab rindon me jaageeron ki

Bahas, firasat mandon men adab ki hua karti, kabhi

Aaj zikr qilon ka, aur hoti hain baaten zakheeron ki

Tera raub o daab yahan kis kaam, ai shaikh bata

Yeh to mehfil hai ghareebon aur chund dabeeron ki

Woh bhi kya zamaana tha, har su tha qahqaha

Aaj justaju hai us zamaane ki tasweeron ki

Ai nau jawaanon, ai ghurbat ke mehmaanon, suno

Aab o gil ko zururat hai apne aseeron ki

Kisey kya milega jahan men kab, kaun jaane

'Sahil', khel hai yeh lakeeron ka, baat taqdeeron ki

65.

Milegi manzil teri dua ko 'Sahil',

Per, tujh men junoon e parwaaz to ho

Sunega maula har aah teri

Per zuhoor e jabeen e niyaaz to ho

Aarzoo, khwahish, tamanna, hasrat

Sawaab milega, raast namaz to ho

Ajab hai yeh insan khudaya tera

Aaj tere naam ki koi aawaaz to ho

Aayenge dair o haram bhi, vaaiz

Kaash meri umr daraaz to ho

Teri mehfil men saqi hungama bahot hai

Per, maikade men peene ka andaaz to ho

Padhenge yaro ghazal hum zurur

'Sahil', kahin koi naghma pardaaz to ho

66.

Thahar ja, ai aftaab, haseen hai tera naqaab

So rahi hai shab abhi, hai dil mera be taab

Mat kar hisaab shab o roz ka, bas yun hi rehne de

Jeene de yeh zeest mujhe, aahista, be hisaab

Kal tak toofaan jo uthey they, they sumundur men kahin door

Chaley aaye hain aaj dar pe kyon, ban kar wo girdaab

Dil men tere gar soz nahin, phir kya karey sitaar

Reh jaayega, ai mauseeqaar, haath men phir mizraab

Intekhaab na kar chaman men, phool, phool hain 'sahil'

Gul khilte hain jab dil men yaro, khilta hai gulaab

Maana, phool phool hai, sahi farmaya janaab, lekin

Sahib e idraak karta hai baseerat se, intekhaab

67.

Sahil', sukun bhi ik parinda hai, zurur

Aaj is shaakh per, kal jaane kis shajar per

Aayen hain tere dar pe, talaash surur ki hai

Saqi, chhord aaye hain sukun hum, aaj ghar per

Yeh chaman hai ya biyabaan, mat puchh jaanum

Daar o madaar hai iska, teri nazar per

Chalte reh raahi, fikr maazi ki kyon tujhe

Naqsh e pa rahen na rahen, raahguzaar per

Qahar dekh, ai munsif, unki nazron men zara

Ilzam na laga qatl ka, bezabaan khanjar per

Maikada, dair o haram, dasht o sahra sab,

Lekin, dum torey ga 'sahil', rab ke dar per

68.

Na sarwat na shauhrat na deegar junoon

Tamanna e dil hai mukammal sukoon

Neend khwabon men guzre, aftaab saath uthoon

Sada koel ki main har subh hi sunoon

Mai e naab to milegi saath hoor ke kabhi

Tere jaam se saqi ek aur ghoont pi lun

Na mandir na masjid na kalisa koi

Baatin men khuda hai, jannat hai daroon

Baasit hai maula, kya dega ai shaikh tu

Namaaz men kuch na maanga, tujhse kya maangun

Khud ko khush rakhna zimma mera hi hai,

Qasd karta hun 'sahil' ke khush reh sakun

Tasawwur hai tera dil men khudaya

Jee karta hai bas, ab tujhe dekh lun

69.

Na fikr dil ki na jaan ki khabar

Lamhe yun bhi guzarte hain aksar

Daastaan kya sunayen barg o baar ki

Rota reh jaata hai bechara shajar

Yun badalte hain log naqaab, yaro

Ab masnooyi chehre aate hain nazar

Kabhi rotey they pathhar bhi zaar zaar

Aaj dil huay hain lgon ke pathhar

Jannat ki mujhko nahin hai khabar,

Per teri duniya to ya rab hai zer o zabar

Zaat khuda ki pehchaan, 'sahil' mian

Us se nahin hai koi zaat bar tar

Jee chaahta hai aa kar tujh se milun

Maula, kahan se laaun main baal o par

70.

Kar lenge tauba tauba, 'sahil'

Ho to jaaye zakhm, mundamil

Sookh to le yeh jaam mai ka

Ro to le yeh pathhar dil

Aaye hain mehfil men teri

Kar lenge tauba hum jaanam

Naam 'sahil' to pukaaro

Mahabat ki hai, ai sanam

Dhundta hai kya 'sahil' bata

Manzil teri bata hai kya

Dar ba dar ghoomta hai kyon

Ma'bad se tu maikada

71.

Khuda na karey kabhi ho aisa

Khuda miley to aisa vaisa

Mahaul aisa hai jahan men 'sahil'

Har ek ki zabaan pe, hai khuda paisa

72.

Safar men 'sahil' aaj nazakat yeh kaisi

Zahr ki nadiyon men halawat yeh kaisi

Kabhi ulfat ke sunte they naghme yahan

Aaj dilon men har su, adawat yeh kaisi

Jo insan karega wo vaisi bharega, phir

Dosto taqdeer kya hai, kahawat yeh kaisi

Liye phirte hain log dilon men khanjar

Zabaan shireen, phir sadaqat yeh kaisi

Na sajda koi na lab pe naam rab ka

Tu hi bata 'sahil' ibadat yeh kaisi

Aaj khud ko maula samajhta hai, insan

Yaro, tum hi batao baghawat yeh kaisi

Commented [S1]:

73.

Nasha tera hai saqi anjaam sohbat ka hai

Bhatak jaata hai insan qusur hasrat ka hai

Nikle they ghar se aur manzil thi ma'bad

Chaley aaye maikhaane, hukm qismat ka hai

Chaman men to phoolon ki bahaar hai aaj

Udaas gulaab, asar khaar ki sohbat ka hai

Tujhe maana hai khuda per khuda tu nahin hai

Jaanam, ghalati meri nahin, qusur ulfat ka hai

Jahanum to haasil hogi hi, yeh masilah nahin hai

Dosto, door kitna hai firdaus sawaal jannat ka hai

Deewana tha majnun, kyon ghaail hai 'sahil'

Khuda se hai ulfat, qusur mahabat ka hai

74.

Tamanna, hasrat, khwahish, 'sahil'

Kabhi maikada, kabhi kaaba manzil

Khuda hi jaane kisey hui aur kahan

Tasalli aur hasraton se raahat, haasil

Tera kya thikana ai zindagi , bata

Humrahi har gaam hai qaza mustaqil

Main to haal hi men jeeta hun yaro hamesh

Kaun jaane kya bala hai mustaqbil

'Sahil', maut to ek haadisa hai, bas

Hum to zinda rakhte hain , mustaqil yeh dil

75.

Yeh kiska dhuaan udta ja raha hai

Yeh kis dil jaley ka bhala hua hai

Be rahm hai dil, zaalim wo mustaqil

Kis per kaun aaj kidhar maraa hai

Neela falak, farozaan sitaare

Kis ne baadalon ko aaj kaala kiya hai

Yeh kiski aawaaz yeh naaseh hai kaun

Yaro, zameer aaj kiska zinda hua hai

Khuftah jahan, be parwa so raha hai

Tu hi aaj 'sahil' bas jaaga hua hai

76.

Tere khaar hain behtar ai ujde huay gulshan

Murjhaye huay phoolon ki kaisi hai mehfil

Jis teer e nazar se uth ti hai mahabat

Usi teere e nazar se dil hota hai ghaail

Sumundur ki mauj se pursish yeh kaisi

Kyon aayi hai milne tujhe woh sahil

Ajab hai yeh kitni duniya teri maula

Sumundur hai zariyai aur kabhi wo haail

'Sahil', na ki hum ne fikr na parwa kabhi

Ke honge ya na honge yeh zakhm mundamil

77.

Ai zindagi, tere hum bahot qareeb hain

Ai maut, tere to hum raqeeb hain

Kiye ja, jeeye ja, naam isi ka hayaat hai

Kisey khabar, ai musafir, tere kya naseeb hain

Mat koso tum yaro qismat ko apni

Jahan men aur bhi bahot ghareeb hain

Masiha ke muqaddar men saleeb tha

Aaj, har su tabaahi, aur bhi saleeb hain

Bas kar vaaiz thak gayi hai majlis aaj

'sahil' hai, rab ke aur bhi kayi habeeb hain

78.

Hum bhool chuke hain 'sahil' us raahguzaar ko

Per, choomti hai ab bhi saba us gul o khaar ko

Kab tak rahegi haavi tujh per khazan, bata

Bula le ai chaman tu, ab roothi bahaar ko

Dar ba dar maikhaane ki hai kyon tujhe talaash

Ai majnoon, samajh le mehfil tu ujde dayaar ko

Aish o ishrat ka bhi uth ta hai dhuaan kabhi,

Hawa mat dena yaro tum bhadakti naar ko

Be zanjeer ana le doobegi behr men zurur

Buri bala hai dosto, mat paalo aasteen ke maar ko

Milega kaandha to mazaar tak hi, ai shaikh tujhe

Kya sajaata hai tu is musht e ghubaar ko

Zameen per sitaare bahot hain, soch zara

Ai insan, le jaata hai toofaan hawa sawaar ko

Likhte ja 'sahil', padhte reh kalaam apna

Ajal ke baad hi milti hai pasandeedgi, ashaar ko

79.

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they

'Sahil', falak o aasmaan they,

Peeri na thi qareeb kahin

Kabhi hum bhi dil jawaan they,

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they.

Kabhi hum bhi haseen daastaan thay

Aah they, aur sard fughaan they,

Kaasa ba dast yaar per

Kabhi hum bhi meharbaan they,

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they.

Kabhi hum bhi kisi ki jaan they

Ibadat ki aasitaan they,

Khaanabadoshon ki hum bhi , yaro

Har haal aashiaan they,

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they.

Maayoosi ki hum muskaan they

Nafraton ka nuqsaan they

Ladte they hum shaikh se

Ghareebon ki hum zabaan they

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they,

Kya kehne hain rang tere

Kya kehne hain dhang tere

To badalta hai waqt kaise

Hum to chalte hain sang tere

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they

Dil jalon ki marham ki dukaan they

Un ke dard ka gireybaan aur daamaan they,

Khareed o farokht ka sisila na tha

Ke, din pur sukoon aur log insaan they

Kabhi hum bhi meer e kaarwaan they

Zinda reh kar bhi justaju rahi zindagani ki

Guftagu hoti rahi hai zeest, teri ravaani ki

Bhool raha hai 'sahil' mafhoom tu hayat ka

Fikr kyon turbat per tujhe gul fishaani ki

Pathhar ka vazn liye, dil ghoomta hai kyon

Utaar kafan musafir, yaad dila jawaani ki

Saqi, rind tere choor hain mai ki maayoosi men

Fajr ka soch, kar baaten un se shaadmaani ki

Ai faasiq, jal jaayega sharaar e gunahgaari men

Arq e infeeaal ki soch, fikr sharmindagani ki

Nasha kaisa hai aaj ahl e siyaasi ka 'sahil'

Muntazir ikseer ke, tishnagi nahin paani ki

81.

Tu kyon ro raha hai 'sahil', gilah naseeb se hai kya

Teri fughaan se kuchh hai zaahir, andaleeb ban kar suna

Nahin hun tera dushman, hun yaar main tera

Rakhunga raaz dil men, tu habeeb ban kar bata

Sunen hain qisse sabke, naale bhi sab sunen

Tu daastaan apni, dost, ajeeb o ghareeb suna

Khoon e jigar se likhta hoon, jo aaye dil men yaro

Kis ne mujhe khwahmakhwah , yun adeeb kaha

Dil saaf hai munsif, main suboot kya dun tujhe

Sahaaif ki qasm khaayi hai, tu saleeb pe chadha

Tu momin hai 'sahil' yeh to rab nen bhi maana

Aur kaun hai yahan qareeb, hamen bhi to bata

Dost banaye yaro, naam zindagi ka hai dosti

Shikast manzoor hai, khuda raqeeb ka karey bhala

82.

Tishnagi se pooch 'sahil' suroor kya hai aab men

Raaz kitne pinhaan hain, be bas dil e be taab men

Shumar kyon gunahon ka, ai vaaiz tu hi bata

Kotahi hai, ai be khabar, tere aaj hisaab men

Tabahi tera shauq hai, zauq bhi shayad khazan

Khushbu kaisi, phir bata, chaman ke aaj gulaab men

Aaye hain khumgaah hum saqi, pila ab nazron se tu

Khaali hain jab jaam tere, nasha kya hai sharaab men

Khwaab dekhe din men hum ne, raat ko khufta bhi

Farq kya hai bolo yaro, haqeeqat aur saraab men

Anjaam kya hoga dosto, kaho naadaan insan ka

Shanakht karni jo bhoola hai, adoo aur arbaab men

Badla hai zamana kaise, yaqeen dil men hai nahin

Sadaqat tere, ai vaaiz, nahin hai khitaab men

Be sahara tu nahin hai, naakhuda hai tere saath

Pukhta rakh imaan bande, gar kashti hai girdaab men

'Sahil', ma'bad tere dil men hai, kar le tu tawaaf

Kab mila sukoon kisiko, majaazi asbaab men

83.

Tamanna, aarzoo, khwahish se, kab mili taskeen kisi ko

Mil kar khaak men bhi 'sahil', kab mili zameen kisi ko,

Khel hai yeh muqaddar ka, chaahat se phir vaasta kya

Kab mili chaahne se, kabhi zeest haseen kisi ko

Hungama ho raha hai yaro, mazhab ke aaj naam per

Mushkil kya hai sochna, kyon behkayega deen kisi ko

Sukoon milta hai sab hi ko, jabeen e niyaaz men

Nahin deti hai taskeen, maghroor jabeen kisi ko

Maskhari hai duniya 'sahil', har shakhs yahan naqqal hai

Sultan ke libaas men bhi, kab mili tamkeen kisi ko

Tang dil hai jahan yeh kyon, tu hi bata, ai rab, mujhe

Aaj dushwaar kyon hota hai kehna, aafreen kisi ko

84.

Kab chalega qaafila, kitni aur taakheer hai

Hum to thahre musafir, rab kaarwaan ka meer hai

Khushi aur ghami bhi, jo bhi hai so yahin hai

Tu hi bata rab mere, phir jannat kyon be nazeer hai

Kya libaas pehnaate ho, sajaate ho tum kisey

Ud jayega faza men, jism to khaak o khameer hai

Chhord umeed javidaani ki, wo to ik saraab hai

Arq tapke jabeen se, wohi hayaat ki ikseer hai

Daastaan ban kar reh jaati hain, yaaden maazi ki

Mitti ke putle hain sab, na koi raanjha na heer hai

Na sun meri na ghaur kar, kar jo dil men aaye

Ai musafir, sun baatin ki, jahan tera zameer hai

Tafreeq, shughal insaanon ka, varna sab to ek hain

Puchh khuda se, yaar tu, sagheer hai ya kabeer hai

Yaro, qatl karne jaate ho haath men liye tegh

Yeh to socho haath men uske, qismat ki lakeer hai

Kaasa le kar phiroge, naam rab ka bhi logey

Dil se maangta hai jo dua, wohi asl fakeer hai

Dua karte ja tu 'sahil', khuli hawa men mauj kar

Zameen per hain chund bediyaan, zindagi zanjeer hai

85.

Kya kabhi is chaman men bahaar thii

Baghbaan aur bulbul men guftaar thi

Rang gulon ke they aatish fishaan

Kya gulsitaan men bhadakti naar thi

Khazaan ne kiya barbaad mustaqil

Kya gulon ki kabhi yaan sarkaar thi

Aaj bikhre huay hain khandar har ja

Kya yahan phoolon ki kabhi deewaar thi

Ai baad e naseem tu kyon na aayi

Tujhe aane men kya koi aar thi

Amad o raft unki to fitratan thi

Bahaar o khazaan men kya takraar thi

Gar qismat ne likha tha biyabaan, 'sahil'

Kya be bas khazaan gunahgaar thi

86.

Hasb e haal Insaan

Paani ka bulbula aur musht e ghubaar hai

Khudaya, yeh insaan tera be aitbaar hai

Bhoola hai tujhe, ehsaan farmosh hai

Hungama ba pa hai, yeh khud zimmedaar hai

Marham liye phirta hai chaaragar tu kyon

Is ke seene se teer to aar paar hai

Itna door ja chuka hai sadaqat se yeh

Ab to,chehron per likha hai, makaarr hai

Khud gharaz hai itna tera insaan, ya rab

Na apna, na kisi ka, na tera yeh yaar hai

'Sahil', kyon jaata hai yeh ma'bad bata

Yaro, pashemaan bashar hai, gunaahgaar hai

Bhej paighambar tu duniya men, maula

Har haal, usi ki jahaan ko darkaaram hai

87.

Raat guzarne per khatm ho jaati hai baat

Shab e hijraan ki bhi hoti hai aftaab se mulaqaat

'Sahil', kya hua, kyon hua, anban yeh kaisi

Logo, mat karo mujh se yeh fuzool sawalaat

Shaadmaani ke chehre pe qaus e quza, phir

Kyon hoti hai ashkon ki shab bhar, barsaat

Kisey hasil hui fateh qismat per kaho

Karni padti hai sulah, hon jo bhi haalaat

Ai ehsaan faramosh insaan rab ki hai kaaenaat

Kya dega tu kisi ko yahan koi saughaat

Sar jhuka kar chal aur taqdeer kar tasleem

88.

Mahabat bhi 'sahil' ghazab ki dawa hai

Bulbul ki jaise chaman men nawa hai

Andheron men jaise jalta diya hai

Fazaaon men maano bahisht ki hawa hai

Lab per naam ka, zabaan doghli hai

Jo dil se bas nikle wohi dua hai

Khuda hi khuda hain jahaan men aaj yaro

Khuda ki kisey kaho parwa hai

Hum to maante hain 'sahil' tujh hi ko dost

Biyabaan ka raasta hi tere siwa hai

Tu kuch bhi nahin hai ai shaair magar

Muqabile men uske jo dil men basa hai

89.

Zarra e shikast e khaak ko rakh tu sambhaal kar

Dil se apne phir tu 'sahil' chund sawaal kar,

Kya hua gar haara tu zeest ki nabard men

Kab dee shikast maut ko, kisi ne, khayaal kar

Mailaan e tab kyon, khud ko mitaane men

Hosh kar, ai bashar, jahaan ko mat paayemaal kar

Buri bala hai aish o ishrat, yaad rahey, 'sahil' tujhe

Rakh kar naam rab ka lab per, zawaal ko mohaal kar

Zahn o zameer hai, nek diya hai dil khuda ne

Aql o firasat ka mukammal hamesh tu istemaal kar

90.

'Sahil', apnon ko ja kar apna lijiye

Roothon ko ja kar manaa lijiye

Mai e naab hai zaahid ab pi lijiye

Sharaab ho to be shak juda kijiye

Dil to sab hi ke hotey hain paak yaro

Gunahgaron ki sada bhi suna kijiye

Vazn ashkon ka kab tak uthaaye chalega

Tanhayi men raahi baha lijiye

Manjdhaar men kashti to laazim hai khauf

Lab e sahil ho girdaab to kya kijiye

Fitratan so jaata hai zameer bhi kabhi

Khuftah zameer ko dosto jaga lijiye

Fikr karta hai sabki tu 'sahil' mian

Dil apne ko bhi to hansa lijiye

91.

Sadaqat na ho to daastaan kya rulayegi

Charb zabaan kisi ko kya samjhayegi

'Sahil', qahar dekha ho jisne qismat ka,

Usey sulagti naar, bata kya jalayegi

Gar Surdas ban kar chaloge, dosto

Kor chashm ko raushani, raah kya dikhlayegi

Na jaoge agar gulsitaan tum kabhi

Andaleeb phir naghma, tumhen kya sunayegi

Aagaah karti hai qaza, woh hi anjaam hai

Khul kar jee, ai 'sahil', woh aur kya batayegi

92.

Kamaal e zabt e sukhan to dekh lun

Kh-mosh ashkon ka fan to dekh lun

Tasavvur ke hunar ko aazma lun aaj

Khwabon men ghar ka aangan to dekh lun

Parkha hai insaan ko, umr bhar humne yaro

Kuchh waqt pech o kham e zaman to dekh lun

Misl e khazan hai peeri yaad aata hai shabaab

Kaash, ek aur mausam e saawan to dekh lun

Jaati bahaar se hai ab ilteja, 'sahil'

Thahar, ek nazar aur saman to dekh lun

Dekhen hain phool biyabaan men haseen

Ai shaikh, tere kaakh ka chaman to dekh lun

93.

Tu kahey to falak se sitara le aaun

Talatum se jaanaan kinara len aaun

Aasmaan se kauser, qaus o quza ke rang

Main wujood e ulfat ka isteara le aaun

Hukm ho tera to har haal main jaanam

Husn se chheen, aatishpaara le aaun

Ek ishaara to de, nigahon se hi

Jannat se zameen per nazaara le aaun

Bal o par nahin hain, parwaaz hai mushkil

Tu chaahe gar phir bhi, udta ghubaara le aaun

Gar tu kahey 'sahil' to baat hi kya hai

Qaza ko manaa kar, zeest dobara le aaun

94.

Aa raha hu, sabr kar, aa raha hun,

Main qaafile men, ai qaza, aa raha hun

Reton ki main jhurmaton men

Sahra sahra bhatak raha hun

Umeedon ki taameel men

Diye main jala raha hun

Evaz bulbul ke har ja,

Main, khud ko naghme suna raha hun

Sahra men, ai yaro , main

Neendon ko sula raha hun

'Sahil', hamsafar hain mah o anjum

Aaftaab ko main jaga raha hun

95.

Dhundte rahey khazaan men, hum daaman bahaar ka

Dikhlaya phir baaghbaan ne, rukhsaar gunahgaar ka

Sharmsar khazan ne dekh kar, munh pher liya phir apna

Rukhsat hui le kar wo, sahara zaalim khaar ka

Aazmaish e himmat hoti hai maidan e jung men, yaro

Salakhon peechhe band sher, kya jaane shikaar ka

Ai parindo ghar banaya, tinkon se jab tum ne

Kya bharosa kaho tum, kisi boseedah deewaar ka

Shaikh, ghuroor kis baat ka, zaalim hai yeh dunya

Marz tere baatin men hai, mat puchh haal beemaar ka

Na kar iqraar, haq hai tera, ai munkir zuroor

Phir dekh lena ek din, tu anjaam is inkaar ka

Tamaashgaah hai zindagi, tamaashayi yeh bashar

Aata hai toofan bhi kabhi, phir jhonka bahaar ka

Parwaaz kiya shabaab ne, jab sitaron se khelne

Kya puchhte ho maazi ka tum, ulfat ke rozgaar ka

Khutbaah nahin hai kaar tera, firasat mat jataa

Vaaiz nahin hai 'sahil' tu, nibha kirdaar fankaar ka

96.

Na waqt per ikhtiyaar na mustaqbil per koi

Kyon leta hai, ai 'sahil', tu zakhm dil per koi

Hoor o ghulmaan ko bhi mil lenge kabhi

Darya ke tamashayi ko,miley sahil per koi

Kaasa liye baitha hai tere dar pe dekh kaun

Shaikh, tilism ho fusoon gar ka, tere sang dil per koi

Na pahunche mere dil tak gar payaam tera

Be qusur hai woh, ilzaam nahin mehmil per koi

Ilteja hai bas itni tujh se mere khuda

Kabhi aanch na aaye maula, tere 'sahil' per koi

97.

"Doob jaate hain umeedon ke safiney us men

Main na maanunga ke aansu hai zara sa paani''

Tujhko kehte hain firasatmand, log, naaseh

Hum to samajhte hain saari dunya hai deewaani

Vaaiz, gar patta bhi nahin hilta hai maula ke bina

Phir kya hai wo haadisa jisey kehte hain naagahaani

Kyon uth te hain man men yeh sawaal tere 'sahil'

Khuda ek hai aur wo hai munfarid, la saani

Jaisi bhi guzri ho zindagi tumhaari, dosto

Be misaal hai, haseen hai yeh zindagaani

98.

Hum wo zinda dil hain 'sahil'

Dekhi jis ne, har mushkil

Zimma liya haal ka khud per

Khuda per chhorda, mustaqbil

Kya tatolen dil kisi ka

Kaun narm aur kaun sang-dil

Be hosh hain baadakhwaar, Saqi

Kya zinda dil hai yeh mehfil ?

Zeest ka naam daulat nahin hai

Is pesh raft ka kaun hai qaail

Aasaan nahin hai jeena, yaro

Hamwaar raah ke dekho, haail

Aate hain lamhe wo bhi 'sahil'

Zeest aur kabhi maut ke maail

99.

Jal jaaye be shak , yeh khaak e badan mera

Na jaley khudaya, kabhi nasheman mera

Dua karta hun tujhse, ai maula, har roz

Rahey zinda hamesha yeh anjuman mera

Phool khilte rahen, chehron pe ho tabassum

Hara bhara aabaad rahey yeh aangan mera

Tere gulshan men, ai maali, hazaaron hain gul

Mere chaman men khilta hai ik saman mera

Ab chaahat hai bas itni si, ai 'sahil'

Usi saman se baney, ik din kafan mera

100.

Baat karte ho khwaabon ki, jo faqat nazaare hain

Udte udte khwaab bhi 'sahil' misl e ghubaare hain

Zabt e gham, zabt e aansoo, yeh to ishaarey hain

Ke raushan hai zahn aur yeh uske sitaare hain

Sajda, jabeen e niyaaz, naam rab ka lab per

Ai bande,, har haal yeh tere asl sahaare hain

Yaro, gulshan men jaate ho nau bahaar dekhne

Biyabaan men bhi gul hain jo qismat ke maare hain

Har gul men ho khushbu yeh zururi to nahin

Haseen phool bhi kabhi to bantey angaarey hain

'Sahil', khud hi se na hui jab shanasaayi koi

Bata, phir kisey kahen hum, ke woh hamaare hain

101.

Yeh faza e khamosh kyon, ai 'sahil', bata

Shab-e-hijr door hai kya hoga haal dil ka

Kya na hoga mere aaftaab ka urooj kal

Jaari rahegi mah o anjum ki mehfil, kya

Kya na soyenge sitaare kal subh ko, bata

Kya be karaan hogi raat kya hoga narm-dil ka

Utha lenge teri aashuftagi ka vazn, ai dil

Yaad rahey bhaar zyada na ho mehmil ka

Vaaiz ko na bula, mai e naab na pila

Soch saqi, kya hoga rindon ki mehfil ka

Hijr to hoga kab hoga visaal, ai nujoomi

Kya khabar 'sahil', kaun jaane haal is dil ka

102

De 'Sahil' jo de sakta hai, khul ke de

Faani hai jahaan, kyon karne giley shikwe

Misl e reg be sabaat hotey hain, yaro

Bahot naazuk hotey hain baahami rishte

Ai nau jawanon, tehzeeb ko na bhoolna

Seekh lo tum karna, aadaab - o - namaste

Bheje khuda ne paighambar zameen per

Lekin, roz to na aayenge yahan farishtey

Na paaydaar hai kitna yeh insaan 'sahil'

Phisalti zabaan hai aur paaon hain khisakte

Ya rab, kya shaitaan baste hain dil men iske

Maula, ab tu hi bata isey haq ke raste

Tu bhi keh de 'sahil' justaju thi khuda ki

Aur guzri hai zindagi, taraste taraste

103.

Kis per kab aa jaaye yeh aawaara jaan

La mahdood hai yeh dil, ai bahr-e- be-karaan

Rang o bu nakli, chitwan bhi munafiq

Mahabat karnewaale milte hain kahan

'Sahil' kufr hai ya hai yeh asliat e bayaan

Ai falak, nasheman kiska hai wo saatwaan aasmaan

Hum - aahangi men bhi daraaren aati hain

Ai humsafar zeest, tujh per jaan hai qurbaan

Imtehaan hai 'Sahil' har lamha e hayaat

Kis ne kaha ke yahaan jeena hai aasaan

Aao bahaaro jashn manaayen chaman men aaj

Alvida keh gayi hai be raham khazaan

Qaroon ki daulat men nahin hai itmenaan

Kya karenge pa kar hum bahr e be karaan

Mat kar koi sawaal vus'at- e- be- taabi ke

Khaanabadosh hai dunya, ai meer e kaarwaan

104.

Sataati hai bahot yaad-e-raftagaan bhi

Dekhta hai kh-mosh be bas aasman bhi

Sumundur ki talaash hai behte darya ko

Thak kar rukta hai kahin, hai ravaan bhi

Ai bashar, pa ba joolaan kyon hai tu

Jeena mushkil hai bahot per aasaan bhi

Dil ka paak hona to farmaan hai khuda ka

Lekin, sadaqat se rangi ho teri zabaan bhi

Dushman bhi ghar aaye to farz hai tera

Yaad rakhna ke shaitaan hai tera mehmaan bhi

'Sahil', yaadgaar ki manzil rakh naam yaadon ka,

Dil peeri ka hai shikasta aur jawaan bhi

105.

Hairat hai ke dhadakta dil abhi jawaan hai

Hairat hai ke daur e hayaat abhi ravaan hai

Har shai kyon pa ba joolan hai, hairat hai

Hairat yeh bhi hai ke abhi khula aasmaan hai

Saqi, bata kya vaaiz ki thi mehfil yahaan

Dekh udaas kitna sar e ritl e giraan hai

Baad e nau bahaar nahin, daur e khazaan hai

Gul na khaar, haif! be kaif yeh samaan hai

Yaqin tha, imaan tha, dhadakta dil aur shola tha

Aaj jidhar dekhiye soz e dil ka dhuaan hai

Insaan tha, maula tha aur saatwaan aasmaan tha

Ab faza men dekh 'sahil' sirf vaham o gumaan hai

Note: sar e ritl e giran

Wineglass, goblet

106.

'Sahil' hai khwaah sahib e dil hai

Saraaye hai zeest, ya manzil hai

Tegh e ajal sar per jhoomti hai

Kaho, jeena aasaan ya mushkil hai

Ahl e junoon ko raah e junoon men

Junoon ka lutf pur haasil hai

Kya karega ja kar ma'bad, raahi

Gar jannat teri manzil hai

Ai musafit, tujhe yaad rahey

Sahil hi kashti ki manzil hai

Talaash hai tujh ko 'sahil' kya

Jab hayaat teri ik mehfil hai

107.

Ab aur kya kisi se marasim badhaayen hum

Jab dil men sukun hai, hain be niyaaz e gham

Dawa na dua na hi chaaragar ka faisla

Hamdardi se badh kar nahin hai marham

Zara si saba uljha deti hai hamen

Tumhen raaz kya bataayen, tum naazuk ho sanam

Be suri hai bulbul, gham usey hai kya

Kyon manaa rahey hain chaman men, gul maatam

Yaqin hai asaas, ai sukhan sanj 'sahil'

Wo bhoola hai rab ko jiska shauq hai vaham

108.

Daastaan na sunao tum vaardaat- e -qalb sunao

Kahaniyan tum baithe baithe yun na banao

Rafeeq e zindagi to sab hi hain, 'sahil' mian

Tum kabhi anees e ajal ban kar deekhao

Hayaat e ishq to jaageer hai jawaanon ki

Kuchh sunao to baat ramziyyat ki sunao

Gar sitaron se guftagu hai bulandi e nazar

To yun baith kar hum se tum baaten na banao

'Sahil', parwaaz kar, ja mil khuda e do jahaan se

Kya khabar koi farishta kahey, aao, aa jao

109.

Khata hui hai 'sahil' se yeh to maana zuroor

Koi vajh bhi to puchho kya tha wo majboor

Maghfirat to hogi roz e mahshar, munsif

Daar per mat chadha jab khata hai manzoor

Inkisaari hai ta'b yeh jaante ho tum

Nahin shaamil hai 'sahil' men, ik zarra e ghuroor

Wo insaan hai seedha saada yeh maante hain sab

Baat kijiye aap apni, shaikh sahib huzoor

Sanjidah hota hun main sun kar khutbe tere

Kya jaane tu vaaiz, mai e naab ka suroor

Chalo uboor karen yaro shayad us paar miley hoor

Firdaus kis ne dekha, jannat hai bahot door

Tajalli miley, ya rab, to nasheman men mere

Nahin jaana hai mujhe sair e koh e toor

Biyabaan ho ya dasht o sahra, yaad rahey 'sahil'

Wo zulmat se kya darega jiske dil men ho noor

110.

nigaah e mard e momin rok deti hai toofaan ko

Fughaan teri 'sahil' cheer deti hai aasmaan ko

Tere zulm ki charcha shahar men phaili hai aise

Sunte hain shaikh, sharm aati hai zindaan ko

Insaan insaan men farq kya hai batao yaro

Tabaqe ka na ho izzat phir bhi do mehman ko

Sunao kahaani to kahaani hi sunao

Kabhi tamasha na banao daastaan ko

Bahot zaalim hai duniya faani hotey huay

Sambhaal kar rakho logo tum apne daamaan ko

Jaise rakhte hain shamsheer ko niyaam men

Sambhaale rakh, ai sahil' tu apni zabaan ko

111.

Ibadat to 'sahil' ishq e butaan hai

Varna, imaan bhi ik khula aasmaan hai

Sauda imaan ka, sauda jahan ka

Tu bata maula yeh kaisi dukaan hai

Kya hua hai kaho, baahami rishton ko,aaj

Jab murawwat hi khud men, rooh e rawaan hai

Andaleeb, gulsitaan, nasheman mera

Jaanaan, tu hi bata kahaan teri jaan hai

Kya karen hum bharosa kisi per koi

Mahabbat bhi yaro, jab bad gumaan hai

Jidhar dekhiye ik hungama ba pa hai

Kya hua hai jahaan ko, yeh kaisa insaan hai

Bhoola hai kyon tu rab ko musafir

Na makaan hai tera, na la makaan hai

Jeeney ke sahaarey bahot hain , dosto

Gham hai, dard hai, yaad e raftgaan hai

Kuchh padh kalaam aisa ke maanen tujhe shaair

Radeef qafiya milana to 'sahil' aasaan hai

112.

Qaza ka karti hai peeri intezaar

Aur rehti hai zeest har lamha, hoshyaar

Ajab hai maut o hayaat ka rishta

Milte hain jaise khazan o bahaar

Zeest, misaal hai bulbule ki, 'sahil'

Usey aab kahun ya musht e ghubaar

Zinda hai hasrat tamashayi men

Jaane sahil hai kaisa darya ke paar

Kyon jaate ho karne maazi ki sair

Jab milti hain yaaden tumhen daaghdaar

Baarish men karta hai gaane ko jee

Fusungar hai naghma, raag malhaar

Usey phool hi milenge har ja, logo

Dost hon jiske chaman ke khaar

Taabedaar hain tere maan le jaanaan

Sach keh rahey hain, ai haseen, sarkar

Karey jo chhahey yeh matlabi dunya

'Sahil', tu to rakh apna zameer, bedaar

113.

Muntazir hai dhuen ka aasman aasmaan

Parwaaz karta hai dekho dhuaan dhuaan

Rok sakte ho shaikh to rok kar dekh lo

Darya ka behna hai ravaan ravaan

Mahabat ki hum ne ki izzat mukammal

Raaz dil men raha nihaan nihaan

Mat bahao inhen darya ki maanind

Ashk hotey hain yaro, giraan giraan

Hua karta tha kabhi imaan awwal

Aaj faza men bhi hai, gumaan gumaan

Bhatakte rahey umr bhar hum yaro

Sukun ki talaash men kahan kahan

Maana ke 'sahil' hai sin raseedah

Per dil uska ab bhi hai jawaan jawaan

Dil shikasta na hona dosto kabhi

Leta hai rab, imtehaan imtehaan

114.

Waqt ka pa band hun, waqt hai zanjeer

Waqt sab per haavi hai, murshid ho ya peer

Kasa ba dast faqir ho ya ho koi ameer

Kaun hai sagheer in men aur kaun hai kabeer

Khokhla hai daulatmand, khuftaah hai zameer

Ajab hai yeh dunya logo, hoshyaar hai faqeer

Nazar jhukaaye aate hain dar pe tere sab

Kaun hai gunagaar munsif, kaun daamangeer

Bujh chuka hai noor dil men insan ke, ya rab

Zameer jaga, lau jala, baatin kar muneer

Peshraft hungama hai, karen jo chaahen log

Kh-mosh ho kar sun 'sahil', kya kehti hai taqdeer

115.

Sanjeedagi bhi 'sahil' kya na muraad hai

Maskharon ko jahan men daad hi daad hai

Kartab gaah yeh duniya, tamashayi sab

Naqaal ki zabaan to pur aazaad hai

Aasaan hai qadam rakhna raah e darogh per

Raast ki raah to yaaro bahot be daad hai

Kya hua hai khudaya qahr ko tere

Jab har su yahan, mahz istebddaad hai

Kabhi basta tha dilon men haq ka tassavur

'Sahil', aaj haqeeqat jahan ki irtedaad hai

116.

Marhale dard ke jab bhi aate hain

Hum kuchh der ruk kar guzar jaate hain

Ashk to behte hain be bas hi yaro

Hum to ranjeedah dil ko behlaate hain

Nazar aati hai bu shikastagi ki, jab

Hum apne veeraan kuche ko sajaate hain

Hamdard kaun hai tanhayi ka 'sahil'

Hum to ro kar khud ko sulaate hain

Naaraaz hai aaftaab bhi hum se, yaro

Bahot mushkil se khud ko jagaate hain

Ajab hai yeh zamaan bhi dekhiye, kaisa

Log, haath thaam kar bhi giraate hain

Tanz aamez hai yeh dekhiye kaise

Anjaane bhi aaj naam se hi bulaate hain

Chhord gayi bulbul bhi chaman aaj mera

'Sahil', ab naghme hum khud ko sunaate hain

117.

Aatish e gul, khaak e zameen, ujda gulistaan

Kiska hai 'sahil' bata, yeh udta hua dhuan

Mat bahao ashk yaro pareshaani men tum

Kya karoge uthegi jab dard e dil ki fughaan

Sawaal karna hai yaro to khud hi se karo

Sookhe chashm se puchho ashk kitne hain giraan

Kabeer hai kitna tera zindaan, ai insaan

Qaid hai tu hudood e zamin o aasmaan

Suna ai 'sahil' kahani tu zeest ki apni

Mat suna daaastan koi hadees e digaraan

118.

Tashreeh e Mahabat

Bandish hai, zanjeer hai, naam mahabat hai

Wafaa hai asaas, bunyaad sadaqat hai

Fitrat to dil ki hai khaanabadoshi, logo

Per aawaargi e dil to adaavat hai

Karo jis se chaaho mahabat tum yaro

Khud se mahabat bhi ik zururat hai

Kabhi banti hai raakh ulfat bhi, dosto

Phir to baad e saba bhi uqoobat hai

Daur e mahabat bhi ajab hai 'sahil'

Dil raushan aur zahn men zulmat hai

119.

Kyon puchhte ho logo mera pesha hai kya

Tum hi batao yeh be kaari hai kya

Saqi se puchhte hain log,maikhwaari hai kya

Chaarahgar se 'sahil', dil ki beemaari hai kya

Teri mehfil men shaikh yeh toote sitaare kaise

Sitaron ki falak se hui aatish baari hai kya

Raaz pinhaan hain sab ke dilon men jab

Kya batayen tumhen parda daari hai kya

Khurshid ka aamad o raft muztari nahin

To batao phir logo be qaraari hai kya

Rab ke hotey huay samjhao tum, yaro

Hayaat ki zimmedaari hamari hai kya

Yaro, maut to maut hai,kaari nahin hai maut

Bata phir'sahil', khauf o kyayal e maut kaari hai kya

Kyon banaata hai tu insaan, fazaon men kaakh

Paayedaar, hawaaon ki sawaari hai kya

Yaro, har roz jo lagata hai shart tum se

Woh aaftaab tum se kum jawaari hai kya

120.

'Sahil' ka khumgaah se sarokaar hai bahot

Raah e shauq ke gulon per aitbaar hai bahot

Jalwe husn ke dekhe hain yaro bahot, lekin

Barq ki tajalli, be misl nazaara hai bahot

Khaanabadosh hai yaro,yeh dil fitratan

Qaid hai zuroor, lekin aawaara hai bahot

Tishna baitha hai kyon lab e darya, musafir

Behte aab ki tujhe jab darkaar hai bahot

Maana ke zaalim hai waqt ki shamsheer, per

Aazaar men yaro, waqt madagaar hai bahot

Doobti kashti bataaye mafhoom sahil ka

Yaro,, sahil ka sahara, sahaara hai bahot

'Sahil', zimma jahaan ka mera nahin hai

Main ne koochey ko apne sanwaara hai bahot

121.

Charagh e raah kya bataaye manzil hai kahan

Doobti kashti kya bataaye sahil hai kahan,

Kis se puchhte ho sawaal zara socho, yaro

Bechaara zahn kya bataaye dil hai kahan

Jisey aadat ho soney ki sitaron taley

Usey kya khabar baalish e makhmal hai kahan

Har shai ka makaam bhi muayyan hai yaro

Jaise dhuoond leta hai kaasa narm dil hai kahan

Woh mitti ke khiloney se badh kar nahin hai

Dosto, insaan se na puchhna, gil hai kahan

Usey khud nahin maaloom bekhudi hai aisi

Kya bataayega 'sahil', 'sahil' hai kahan

122.

Sard fughaan, ranjish-e-be-jaa, dil hai udaas

Imaan hai, yaqeen hai, khushi kyon nahin hai paas

Sawaal uth te hain kaise zahn men ab 'sahil'

Kabhi apna thi dunya, ab charagh na koi aas

Gar shab ko na sunaaun, to sunaaun phir kisey

Daastaan e waqt e jaur hai be qaraari ki assaas

Hum kya karen shaikh tere kaakh o gulzaar ka

Mutamayin hain hum apne jahaan -e- iflaas

Hogi pasand ravaani darya ki kisi ko

Khud- daar uski aafreen, na ho jisey koi pyaas

Yaro, hungama ba pa hai jidhar bhi dekhiye

Kho baitha hai jahaan apna hosh o hawaas

'Sahil', koi zururi to nahin hai kehni har baat

Mat kar tu baaten, jo na aayen kisi ko raas

123.

Sar men sauda, larazte huay qadam

Per, aarzoo e zeest se nikle na dum

Girdaab to 'sahil' hai sumundur ka khel

Kyon kash ma kash men phir, ghir gaye hum

Mat koso tum yaro, sang dil, sang dil

Us shaikh se milao jiski aankh ho num

Anjaam zindagi ka maaloom hai sabko

Kya bataayega logo tumhen jaam e jam

Is peshraft ke junoon men kufr dekhiye

Bhoola hai insaan paak dair o haram

Khauf nahin hai kisi ko zindaan se aaj

Parwah kisi ko nahin gar ho bhi zam

Shaair hun, mera kaam hai shayr padhna

Na suney koi, tu to sun le sanam

Naam na loonga ghalib na firaq na aur

Shaair to hum bhi nahin kisi se kum

Tu chalte chal 'sahil' tanha hi sahi

Raah e khuda per khuda hai, tera humdum

124.

Shayad qaza ko tera intezaar hai

Lekin, zindagi tu badi be etibaar hai

Maana ke husn be misaal hai mahtaab ka

'Sahil', chehra wo haseen per daaghdaar hai

Ulfat naazuk hai, maidan e jung nahin

Hayat vaise bhi yaro kaarzaar hai

Kya shaan o shaukat, jalwa tera, Shaikh

Khuda ka banda hona hi iftekhaar hai

Sufi hai, khush qismat hai, jo chaaho kaho

Be qaraar jahan men, jisey qarrar hai

Mat puchh riza meri, ai khuda mere

Hukm kar ya rab, 'sahil' farman bardaar hai

125.

Gham e firaaq ko le kar kahaan jaayenge

Biyaabaan ke gul bhi ab zuroor sataayenge

Ajab hai yeh kitna, dekh silsila 'sahil'

Ke haseen gul bhi hamen aaj rulaayenge

Koi to kaho ja kar us sang dil se, yaro

Hum chehra e mahabat unhen deekhaayenge

Khuftagi se be zaar, khwaab na aayenge

Maah o anjum nahin, dil ke khaar sulaayenge

Kabhi tarasta tha naghma gosh e yaar ko

Ab lori bhi hum khud hi ko, sunaayenge

Haasil ho fateh maidaan e zeest men ya na

Hum khud ko, yaaro, to nahin haraayenge

Nabard hai yeh zindagi, ai qaza samajh

Ghalat fahmi na ho ke hum dar jaayenge

Tu rooth bhi jaaye hum se , gar 'sahil' kabhi

Tujhe to, ai dost, har haal hum manaayenge

126.

Ai jawaani, bahot yaad aati hai tu

Daur e peeri men bahot sataati hai tu

Sochta hun jab jawaani ka main

Woh bhadakti shab ki yaad aati hai tu

Aftaab aur main ghuroob hotey hain yaksaan

Per, umeed e subh bahot sataati hai tu

Main so raha hun kiran, mat jaga mujhe

Mere khwabon ko kyon jagaati hai tu

Naghme suna tu ai andaleeb mujhe

Soz e dil ke naale kyon sunaati hai tu

Ai baad e saba, kabhi ruk bhi to ja

Pareshaan kyon udti jaata hai tu

127.

Maikhwaar hun, maikada hai meri jaan

Tamanna e baarish hai, ai aasmaan

Tu na barse na girey shabnam, na sahi

Ashk bahaana to hai aasaan

Gul na milen gar chaman men dosto

Chalo, dhundte hain ja kar biyabaan

Chaar din ka mela yeh jahaan, yaro

Fuzool hain phir fughaan o giryaan

Bahot zaalim, jaan leva hai aarzoo

Leti hai yeh mukammal imtehaan

Shukr mana le ai 'sahil' miaan

Ke dil men khuftaah hain tere, armaan

128.

Sheesha miley mazaar per to baat hai saqi

Zabt ho jazbaat per to baat hai saqi

Dar rahey khula tera aarzoo hai dost

Subh ho khwaah raat, to baat hai saqi

Maah jabeen se mila to koi baat baney

Aaftaab se to khoob mulaqaat hai saqi

Lete hain hain khwab hum jaavidani ke

Zindagi to bas ik ribaat hai saqi

Muztarib kyon hai 'sahil', ai saqi bata

Rind ko dekh, kaisi qan'at hai saqi

129.

Sabr kar saqi taweel hai raah e maikadah

Namaaz padh kar kaafir, aa raha hun main

Chaman parast hun, azeez hain mujhe phool

Khaaron se riha pa kar, aa raha hun main

Kis gham men gharq hai andaleeb, batao

Ke naghme chaman men,suna raha hun

Tere dar pe, ai saqi, sab rind to nahin

Rab ke bandon ko mai e naab pila raha hun main

Na raanjhe, na farhad na waamiq ki daastaan

Ai humdum, kahani apni bata raha hun main

Kor chashm hai duniya, kya karun 'sahil'

Aayena jahan ko deekha raha hun main

Dar ba dar ghoomta hai yeh kaasa ba dast insaan

'Sahil', haath men liye sar apna, apna sar o saamaan

130.

Gul ko giley ka baar kya

Mahabat men jeet aur haar kya

Adoo na ho to yaar kya

Adavat na ho to pyaar kya

Khaak hua tukhm khaak men

Gul ka phir intezaar kya

Muztarib na ho gar tu kabhi

Ai dil, tera phir qarrar kya

Gar veeran na ho basti koi

Kaho iram aur gulzaar kya

Khwaab me kisi per vaar kya

Hawa men ghoda savaar kya

Karte ho baat maah jabeen ki jab

Phir husn ka hona daaghdaar kya

Dozakh na ho to firdaus kya

Bin khazaan ki kaho bahaar kya

Hasb e haal per hai yeh tabsira

Kharidaar na ho to baazaar kya

Kaaghaz ka phool hai sarvat, logo

Daulatmand aur daulat khwaar kya

Jangal bana hai yeh jahan, dekho

Kaho, gunah aur gunahgaar kya

Na ho agar shaitaan har su, dosto

Jannat men parvardigaar kya

Muqarrar hai qaza, ai 'sahil' mian

Yeh maut per rona zaar zaar kya

Ajal se khauf yeh kaisa yaro

Zindagi kam azzaar hai kya?

131.

Nuskha de ya kh-mosh baith, ai vaaiz mian

Kya hai koi paas tere dard e dil ka darmaan

Suna tujhe mahraab se khutba padhte huay

Laga mujh ghareeb ko tu zyada hi pareshaan

Kabhi haseen they khwaab chund raaton ke yaro

Umeed na thi yaqeen na tha, na koi gumaan

Veeraan hai meri basti, khaak hai wujood

Mat pakad ai qayamat, mera ab girebaan

Is hungama e daur e jahan men, dosto

Wo yaaden kuhan ho gayeen nisyaan

Kis lagan se likhta hai ai shaair tu

Teri tasteer ki lakeer banee rag e jaan

Kaasa b dast kyon ghoomta hai, ai 'sahil' sahib

Haath men liye sar apna, kul sar o saamaan

132.

Ijtema e maah o anjum ka dekhiye kamaal

Aisi anjuman to 'sahil' hai zameen per muhaal

Sitaaron ki chamak ya mere maah ki damak

Aalam e sifli ka kamaal, khwaah aalam ulawi ka jamaal

Woh parwaaz kya karega taqaabul e uqaab

Na hon jiske par aur na heen vaise baal

Yeh peshraft bala hai dosto kaho kaisi

Aaj paise ne kiya hai imaan ka paaemaal

Yaro, aqeedat se badh kar kuch bhi nahin hai

Kabhi haleef ka mat karna, tum na jaaiz istemaal

Kaafir ko banaya hai khuda hi ne dosto

Liye phirta hai usey woh, usi ka hammal

Hairaan hun main sun kar, ai 'sahil' miaan

Log kehte hain tera, kalaam hai be misaal

133.

Sham'a ke muqabil rukh e raushan kya hai

Mujhse nahin 'sahil', parwaane se puchh

Gar jalne men hai jaavidaani to phir

Fana hone ka lutf, us deewaane se puchh

Be sawaad hai sharaab, na hi nasha be khudi ka

Mai kyon hai aaj aisi, tu khazaane se puchh

Mast hai saqi apne pyaalon men jab

Kashish kya hai is ja ki, maikhaane se puchh

Dar hai, deewaar hai, baagheechey men phool

Haavi kyon hai tanhayi, aashiaaney se puchh.

Jaam me gharq rind ka anjaam mat puchh

Hazrat e vaaiz, zinda kaun hai , zamaane se puchh

Kahaani dar kahaani, haadissa dar haadisa

Kaisi guzri hai zeest, yeh afsaane se puchh

'Sahil', le gaya tha kisi ko firdaus tak meraaj

Sar e baam hai bahot dur, jazba e chaahne se puchh

134.

Wo jo nazar se mastoor hai

Wohi zulmat men dilon ka noor hai

Paikar e husn ka zikr kyon

Jab dil men tasavvur e hoor hai

Bhatakte dil se kya giley

Wo be bas o majboor hai

Nakhre mat deekha saqi, na pila

Nasheman pe mere angoor hai

Lutf andoz hai be wafai

Haaye, wafa bhi kya dastoor hai

Har su hai shaadmaani 'sahil'

Tere dil men kyon aaj ranjoor hai

135.

Hasraton ka majmua tera naam insaan hai

Sitaron ka nasheman tera naam aasmaan hai

Kya haal kiya hai tu ne, ai bande khuda ke

Jahan fana hi lagta hai tera darmaan hai

Yeh jhagde yeh fitne, hungama ba pa hai

Shaitan ka jahan hai, yahan insan kahan hai

Yeh jo chalta hai zameen per, kaun hai wo

Banda e khuda hai ya hindu musalmaan hai

Har aarzoo nahin banti hai dua, ai 'sahil'

Diljalon ki khwahish bas dood o fughaan hai

136

Shabnam giri gulaab per, tishna rahi zameen

Tadapti rahi hasrat kahin, shaadmaan kahin taskeen

Dil e muztar bata, kyon hai tu yun pareshaan

Door kyon hai sajdon se teri haseen jabeen

Nahin hai zamana ab sadaqat aur imaan ka

Pehlu men sab ke baitha hai, ik maar e aasteen

Kabhi karte they puja, dairo haramke tawaaf

Aah daulat banee hai yaro sab ki, habl e mateen

Likh jo chaahe 'sahil' tu, tanqeed kar ya tanqees

Zabaan teri pe alfaaz hon, to hon sirf shireen

137.

Yun bhi la mahdood thi wus'at mere armaan ki

Justaju is dil ko thi tanhayi ke darmaan ki

Hum na kehte they 'sahil' yeh pesh raft le doobega

Bhoola hai rab ko insaan, zururat hai iman ke saamaan ki

Har ja baste hain maula shaitaan jahaan men

Zururat hai jahaan ko tere insaan ki

Har gul gulsitaan men khaar bana baitha hai

Talaash hai dosto kisi paak biyabaan ki

Yeh tabsira hai 'sahil' teri duniya per aaj

Haalat khastah hai dekh kaisi is jahaan ki

138.

Jafa e ishq e butaan ki baat mat

'Sahil', guzre zamaane ki baat mat kar

Khursheed, na sham'a na hi maah o anjum

Har su hai zulmat, ja e farozaan ki baat mat kar

Mere ashkon ko dekh kabhi behte huay

Darya hai ravaan,tu toofaan ki baat mat kar

Aaj dekhi hai main ne raunaq chaman ki

Aashuftah hun, dil e veeraan ki baat mat kar

Mera haafize hai saaf manind e sheesha

Bhula diya hai maazi,nisyaan ki baat mat kar

Har shai hai nihaan, har dil men hain raaz

Chaand pehne hai naqaab, uryaan ki baat mat kar

Mujhe qaid kya karega, ai bad naseeb shaikh

Aseer hun armaan ka, zindaan ki baat mat kar

Gulsitan, biyabaan, garmiye baazaar , bas

Faqat inhen samajh lun, jahan ki baat mat kar

Asliat e zeest ghazal nahin hai 'sahil'

Qaatib e taqdeer, ghazal kwaan ki baat mat kar

139.

Taskeen milti to 'sahil' saadagi men

Khuda ki ibadat aur bandagi men

Taskeen na ho to kuchh bhi nahin

Na sarwat na shauhrat is zindagi men

So ja 'sahil' ilteja khwabon ki hai

Shayad miley taskeen tujhe khuftagi men

140.

Ye zulmat bhari shab bhi to kabhi taaban thi

Ye bujhi hui shama bhi to kabhi pareshan thi

Aks peeri ka sheeshe mem mat dekhiye

In aankhon ki masti, bhi kabhi jawan thi

Murjhate gul per afsos kyon, fana to laazim hai,

Us gul ki bhi to kabhi aan baan aur shaan thi

Yaro, mushkil hai bahot haqeeqat ka saamna

Naaseh ki kahani to dilchasp o aasaan thi

Adl ho hamesha yeh zururi to nahin

'sahil', qismat khud apne kiye per hairaan thi

141.

Aansoo na baha ai dil e nadaan

Marz e ulfat nahin hai meharbaan

142.

Maanta hun 'sahil' ke roz e paidaaish se hi

Ek muthi men hayaat aur ek men payaam e talabi hai

Andheron ka rishta raushani se hai gehra

Adavat ka jaise mahabat se hai

143.

Koi mahabat karnewalon ko yeh samjhaaye

Ke dil de kar phir wapasi nahin hoti

144.

Kho jaata hai 'sahil' tu khwabon men kyon

Kis raahat ki tujhe talaash hai

145.

Maikade ko jeena seekha de Saqi

Kabhi aa, aur masti e dil e 'sahil' ko dekh

Qafas men hun, baal o par nahin, to kya hua

Naam parinda hai, khalaaon ka hun main sayyaara

Un unglion ke lams se kyon mai chhalak gayi

Kiski theen wo ungliaan, kaun wo fusoongar

146.

Mujh se aa kar mil tanhayi men meri, varna

Hangaame men 'sahil' tu kho jaayega

'Sahil' mere qafas ke yeh nishaan kya hain

Zamin aur yeh aasmaan kya hain

Toofaan miley mujhe to sahil ke aas paas

'Sahil', jannat qareeb hai kitni dozakh ke aas paas

147.

'Sahil', woh bandagi hi kya jo be kaif ho

Khuda ho ya ho majaazi sanam
