Shaayar


Shohrat ka nahi saudai shaayar
Daulat bhi nahi iska nishaanaa
Bus bhatkay hai dil dil ki mehfil
k mil jayay koi chehra-e-daanaa

Umr apni tehzeeb ko day jaataa hai shaayar
JazboN ko neeNd say jagaa laataa hai shaayar

Safar-e-shayar kaho ya naam laylo tanhai ka
k itna dushwaar hai jeena laal-e-khudai ka

Afkaar iskay aadmi kay bhoolay huay ahsaas
JunooN iska mehw-e-neeNd main say jaagoN ki talaash

Nahi pehchaany parwaazaiN iski daur-e-zamaanaa iska
Dariya-e-haazir main hai shayar ik safinaa-e-fardaa

Tasleem-e-shaayar hai gar aadmiyat ko pa jay aadmi
Muaaf gunaah sub hoNgay gar muhabbat ko pa jay aadmi.

Meaning;Daanaa-intellectual(wise),Laal-e-khudai-gem of nature, Afkaar-thoughts,Mehw-eneeNd-in the sleep,ParvaaIn-flights, Dariya-e-haazir-river of present,Safeenaa-e-fardaa-boat of future,Tasleem-e-shayar-recognition of poet

The poet doesn't sell himself for fame
Nor does he aim for wealth

He moves through emotional meetings
Hoping to meet someone with intellect

He offers his life for what's right
And awekens the sleeping emotions

Aloofness is one of his other names
It's hard for this gem of nature to live

His thoughts are lost emotions of man
His craze is to see light in the dark

The world does not see his flights
In the current river lies his future boat

Let man show humanity, submits the poet
Should man embraces love, his sins will be forgiven
