Jadid Tahqiq, Urdu Nazam By Asrar Jamayee

sab se baDe muhaqqiq karte the ye tamasha
qabron se khinchte the urdu adab ka lasha

'sauda' ka ho wo ghuncha 'akbar' ka ya ho jumman
duggi ho ya ki tiggi tola ho ya ki masha

gahri nazar se apni har ek ko dekhte the
apne qalam se un ko hoti na thi nirasha

sari purani qabren jab khod lin baDon ne
zindon pe ho rahi hai ab mashq be-tahasha

in ka bhi postmortem karne lage researcher
maqtal mein aa rahe hain kuchh log be-tahasha

ye fan pe tabsira to karte nahin zara bhi
bas shaKHsiyat ka un ki Dhote phirenge lasha

tahqiq ka hai matter dulha bane the jab wo
shahnai bhi baji thi ya sirf Dhol tasha

is shahr mein sukunat jab se hui hai un ki
urdu hi bolte hain ya aur koi bhasha

hai harf un ka kaisa KHush-KHat hain ya ki bad-KHat
likhte hain saf-suthra ya hath mein hai rasha

rakhte hain munchh daDhi ya chehra hai safa chaT
ya zulf jhulti hai kandhon pe be-tahasha

aKHbar KHud hain paDhte paDhwa ke ya hain sunte
wo kaun se risale ka rakhte hain tarasha

cigarette ke alawa pite hain aur kya kya
khate hain chocolate ya marghub hai batasha

taftish ho rahi hai langDa ke kyon hain chalte
sasural mein piTe kya begam se be-tahasha

tahqiq hai ye kaisi likhwa ke jab unhin se
thesis karen mukammal han kuchh badal den bhasha

tahqiq-e-nau ki gaDi yunhi rawan-dawan hai
har jamia mein hota hai bas yahi tamasha

haq baat khul ke kah di 'asrar' 'jami' ne
ru-e-suKHan kisi ki jaanib nahin hai hasha
