BANTWARA ………।


WO SANNATA THA CHILLATA HUA
YA AZGAR KOI FUNKARTA HUA

THI RAAT YA KOI NAAGIN KA FUN,
SADKEIN SOI THI ODHE KAFAN ,

THE MAUT KE KHANJAR RAATON MEIN ,
AUR KHOON KE MANZAR RAHON MEIN ,

EK LAMBI KHAMOSHI BIKHRI THI ,
ANKHON SE ZUBAAN PAR UTRI THI,

HAR AANKH THI KUCH KHOON KI PYAASI,
HAR KATRE MEIN THI FAILI UDAASI ,

SARHAD SE LAHOO THA JUDA HUA ,
PAR SADKON PAR BIKHRA THA MILA HUA ,

HINDU O MUSALMAAN BHAI BHAI ,
BAN BAITHE THE AAPAS MEIN KASAI ,

JAB DONO GUROOR TAKRAYE THE ,(WEF : JINNAH AND GANDHI)
HAR GHAR KE DIYE BUJHAYE THE ,

MAAON KA RONA SADKON PAR ,
BETON KE CHEHRE THE PATTHAR ,

THI AAZADI ABHI ABHI MILI,
UMMEDEIN JAWAAN AUR KHILI KHILI ,

MATLAB NA SAMJHA AAZADI KA ,
AALAM THA BAS BARBADI KA ,

THE JAKHM PURANE ABHI BHARE ,
PAR NAYE GHAAV HUE HARE HARE ,

THA WAQT KA PAHIYA THAMA HUA ,
AAGE BADHNE KO KAANPTA HUA,

HINDUSTAN KO ABHI PAR JALNA THA ,
IS MANZAR SE AAGE CHALNA THA ,

THI SARHAD PAAR BHI KHOON KI HOLI ,
ROOHON SE JAHAAN SAJTI THI DOLI ,

BAROOD KA HAR OR DHUAN DHUAN ,
JISMON SE GHIRA DARIYA - O - KUAAN ,

JANGAL AUR SHAHAR MEIN FARQ KAHAAN ,
THE JAANWAR CHAHE YAHAAN WAHAAN ,

MAATHE KI BARF BHI LAAL HUI , ( WITH REFERENCE TO HIMALAYAS AND INDIAN OCEAN)
KADMON KA SAMUNDAR ROTA RAHA ,

KHAMOSH KHUDA THA OOPAR BAITHA ,
KHUDAI KA KATL YAHAAN HOTA RAHA

MAZHAB KO SANSON MEIN BASNA THA ,
PAR SAANSEIN MAZHAB MEIN BASI HUI ,

ANKHON MEIN DHUNDHLE KHWAB HUE ,
UNKI HAR NABZ THI JAMI HUI ,

THA DAUR BURA WO GUJAR GAYA ,
CHUBHTA SAPNA THA UTAR GAYA ,
PAR JAATE JAATE BHI WO ZALIM ,
BANTWARA KHOON KA KAR GAYA ..............
