Ghazal:

hain Izzatain watan ki jinhoon ne utaaryaan
Ruj ruj ke un ko aasmaa.N deta hoon galiyaan

Aaamar ho ya ke ho koi jamhooriyat nawaz
Is mulk ki sabhoon ne hain ruj ruj ke maariyaan

shoor o shughaf se bhi kahin aata he Inqalaab!
sunta he aasmaan faqat aaho zaariyaan!

Paise nahin paas mager he maqam e shukr
chalti hain main kade main bhi apni udhaariyaan

Kehne se jhoot hey mujhe nafrat bala ke yaar
ger che hazaar baar he dunya ne phaaryaan

sair e chaman ko aaj phir nikle hain pe ke mae
yaroon guloon se khaas yaan apni hain yariyaan

Khalid Jamil Naam he badnaam chaar so
jaane hain tujh ko loog karachi ta Khariyaan

freedom

Great thinker and philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche described freedom as a two step process. One gets freedom from a bondage and moves towards an aim. Freedom in itself is not worthwhile:it is the aim towards which one moves after setting oneself free, that makes freedom important.

So what is the aim for which we Pakistanis won freedom? What we have as an aim? and if we do not have an aim, what is the worth of our freedom?

The moment I decided to Set myself free
I felt the weight of chains more than ever
on my feet. I , in fact for the first time, and
also for the last time, found those chains so heavy.
But the beauty of my aim was overwhelming,
...So, I shattered the chains and ran towards my aim,
Dancing and singing, though the dangers in my life,
Increased a thousandfold .

ashaar

Dil ki majbooriyaa.N hai.N apni jagahPait Sahab ki apni majboori

Un ko bhaata he koocha e janaa.NIn ko derkaar bas he do rooti

ashaar

is khaak e arz e paak ko Jannat Pukaariyo
Sab haariyo jahaan main himmat na haariyo

Sajid raha hoon jaan ne jahaan der pe aap ke
Kehta he dil ke ab yahin jaa.N ko bhi wariyoo

ashaar

Dekha jo kainaat ka daman phata hua
Dil ne khuda ke naam ka taanka laga diya

Zahir hua jo chaak e garaibaan e kainaat
Sui ne dil ki ishq ke dhaaga se si diya

hamd

Hamd
Wo shamma jis ke noor se rooshan he kainat
Taroo.N ke karwaan ki manzil he us ki zaat

Aflaak ki tahoo.N main ik Heera he dostoon
Gehna saki na jis ki kashish mooj e haadsaat

Qazzaq e aql ne ise thama nahin kabhi
Is Durr e bemisaal tak pohonche na us ke haat

Us ganj e be hudood ki he justujo tumhain
Paane ko jis ko kam he bohut arsa e hayat

parde main apne zaat ke bethe ho chup chupa
sunte nahin guzarishain, kerte nahin ho baat?

Paana he ger khuda ko tu dil main talash ker
kion ke nigaah e dil pe ayaa.N he khuda ki zaat!
