Shakhs-E-Insaan. Poem by Takbeer Salati

Dil thehar gaya, un aankho ko dekh kar
Nazam -o-mausiqi jaisa aalam hogaya
yun toh umeed rakhna aashiqun ki tareef hai
magar dunya mai pagal bhi toh rehtay hai
taaro se chamakti huwi roshni, yun dekhi
chand sharam mai jhukh kar sajda karnay laga
tum ne toh yun zaalimo ki tarah nujhe sanjeeda qaraar kiya
mana ki mai ek raagh ki tarah behti gayi,
lekin waqt ne toh aawaz tak nahi di
ronay walla dil to ek insaan ka hi hota hai,
varna zaalimo se kya tavaja ki jaye
imtihan pe imtihan leta gaya wo shakhas
aasman bhi hasnay laga tareef mei
yun toh aashiqun ka kaam hai mazaak karna
tum bhi has lete majlis mei,
dil tuta toh kya huwa,
maut bhi toh aati hai insaan jaise alfazon mei.
