MuntaKHab-e-rozgar Abulkalam-azad, Urdu Nazam By Saeed Arifi

qadam qadam pe aqidat se sar hai KHam mera
chala hai su-e-rah-e-mo'atabar qalam mera
dil-o-dimagh ko uncha bana diya jis ne
fuyuz-e-ilm se aala bana ya jis ne

baDe KHulus se deta tha dars-e-insani
hue hain jis ki badaulat zamir nurani

wo jis ne rah-e-mohabbat dikhai thi hum ko
wo jis ne rasm-e-uKHuwwat sikhai thi hum ko

wo jis ne bartar-o-baala KHayal baKHsha tha
jo la-zawal hai aisa kamal baKHsha tha

wo ek fikr jo ba-e'tibar karti hai
nazar mein kabil-sad-iftiKHar karti hai

wo jis ne zist sajai jalae dil ke charagh
usi ke soz ne baKHshi hamein mata-e-dimagh

usi ne tarz-e-takallum ki chashni di hai
usi ne ilm ki KHush-rang zindagi di hai

usi ne harf-e-hidayat se sarfaraaz kiya
KHuda ka shukr hamein aashna-e-raaz kiya

gulon se pyar anadil se us ka yarana
sukun-o-amn ka markaz tha us ka kashana

mata-e-ilm luTati rahi hai zat us ki
bahut daraaz thi zulf-e-nawazishat us ki

ruKH-e-hayat ko baKHshi hai ek jila us ne
shuur zauq-e-nazar ka ata kiya us ne

sukun dil ko mayassar tha us ki qurbat se
hum ahl-e-hind ki azmat hai us ki nisbat se

ufuq pe ubhra jo wo al-hilal ki surat
jawan ho ke rahi al-balagh ki fitrat

hain tazkire mein kuchh aise nuqush-e-fikr-e-jamil
ghubar-e-KHatir-o-KHutabaat ki sajen qindil

jo tarjuman se phaili kalam ki KHushbu
sanware us ne hi pechida aql ke gesu

usi ne saz-e-adab ko sada-e-nau baKHshi
shikasta-dil ko anokhi ada-e-nau baKHshi

dayar-e-gul mein wo aaya tha muskuraata hua
har ek KHar-e-chaman ko gale lagata hua

gulon ka rang saba ka shiar laya tha
wo ek bahaar tha husn-e-bahaar laya tha

na us bahaar se ab tak bhara tha dil apna
ki chand lamhon ko us se laga tha dil apna

qaza-e-husn chaman ko chaman se chhin liya
shabab jaise naweli dulhan se chhin liya

bahaar hai na wajud-e-bahaar baqi hai
dilon mein yaad-e-numud-e-bahaar baqi hai

buzurg-o-muKHlish-o-ali-waqar tha wo shaKHs
ki ek muntaKHab-e-rozgar tha wo shaKHs
