Jahan Weeraana Hai

Jahan weeraana ha
Jahan weeraana hai pahle kabhi aabad yaan ghar the
Shaghaal ab hai jahan baste, kabhi bashar yaan the
Jahan chatial hai maidan aur sarasar ek khaaristan
Kabhi yaan qasar-o-oaiwan the, chaman the aur shajar yaan the
Jahan phirte bagoole hain, unraate khak sahra mein
Kabhi urti thi daulat, raqas karte seembar yaan the
Jahan hain sang reze, the yahaan yaaqut ke taude
Jahan kankar pare hain ab, kabhi rulte gohar yaan the
Jahan sunsaan ab jungle hai aur hai sher-e-khamoshan
Kabhi kya kya the hangaame yahan, aur shor-o-shar yaan the
Jahan ab khak par hain naqash-e-paae-aahu-e-sahra
Kabhi mahw-e-tamasha deeda-e-ahl-enazar yaan the
Zafar ahwaal aalam ka kabhi kuchh hai, kabhi kuchh hai
Ke kya kya rang ab hain aur kya kya peshtar yaan the
Translation

Jahan Katre Ko Tarsaya Geya Hun

Jahan katre ko tarsaya geya hun
Wahin dooba hua paya geya hun
Ba-haal-e-gham-rahi paya geya hun
Haram se deir mein laya geya hun
Balaa kaafi na thi ek zindagi kee
Dobara yaad pharmaya geya hun
Ba-rang-e-lala-e-veerana bekaar
Khilaya aur murjhaya geya hun
Agarche abr-e-gauhar-baar hun main
Magar aankhon se barsaya geya hun
'hafeez' ahal-e-zubaan kab maante the
Bade zoron se manvaya geya hun
