Socha nahii.n accha bura, dekha sunaa kuch bhi nahii.n
Maangaa khuda se raat din tere siva kuch bhi nahii.n
Jis par hamaari aankh ne moti bichhaaye raat din
Bheja wohi kaagaz use hamne likha kuch bhi nahii.n
I didn’t think of good or evil, didn’t see or hear anything
Day and night, I asked God for nothing but you
I sent her that sheet without writing anything
Mujh se bichad ke khush rahte ho
Meri tarah tum bhi jhoothe ho
You are also a liar like me
Koii phool sa haath kaandhe pe tha
Mere paanv sholo.n pe chalte rahe
Magar umra bhar haath malte rahe
Muhabbat, adaavat, wafa, berukhi
Kiraaye ke ghar the badalte rahe
A palm like a flower rested on my shoulder
My feet kept walking on embers
But kept regretting the whole life
Love, enmity, loyalty, indifference
Kept changing like rented houses
Usne hansi hansi mei.n hamko rula diya
Chutki mei.n ret lekar usne uDa diya
She teased my heart so as to awaken every sorrow
In jest, she made me cry
When I asked a lot, where to find you
She took a pinch of sand and tossed it away
Dil mei.n diivaar kyu.n khadi kar lii
Heart-beats would have been buried
Why did you erect a wall in the heart
Wo kya tha jise hamne thukra diya
ReplyDeleteMagar umra bhar haath malte rahe
waah janaab.
BTW, really like the new look. Easier on the eyes.

ReplyDeleteGood compilation of Bashir Badr's shers.
ReplyDeleteI have always enjoyed "Socha Nahi Achha Bura" and it is one of my favorite from Bashir Badr's.
The second stanza is beautiful in that ghazal..
देखा तुजे, सोचा तुजे, चाह, तुजे पूजा तुजे,
मेरी खता मेरी वफ़ा, तेरी खता कुछ भी नहीं.
Why you have stopped blogging for so long?
