Haay ..

ae rone walo hai yeh riwayat me likha

jis dam qayam koofe me mukhtar ne kiya

jo bhi the qatilane shaheedane karbala

re unme se koi jab bhi gireftar hota tha

hukme ameer par wo sitam jab sunata tha

mukhtar sar ko peetke bus rota jaata tha

haay..

ek roz tha ye koofe ke darbaar ka sama

ibne numair apne sitam karta tha bayaa

todi thi maine sinae akbar me khud sina

uthta tha shor khaimo se maara gaya jawaa

maa jiteji guzar gai, zainab bhi margai

ek barchi mere kitne jigar paar kargai

haay..

ek roz karke laaya gaya hurmala aseer

bola wo ran me maine chalaye the teen teer

us waqt pehla teer chalaya tha ae ameer

bhar kar chala jo mashk toh mazloom ka safeer

mashkeeze se jo teer mera paar hogaya

aisa laga ke qatl alamdar hogaya

haay..

bola laee ye karb ka hai dusra maqaam

laaye jo apni god me besheer ko imaam

sukhi zaba phirata tha hoto pe tishnakaam

yu qat'a ibne zahra ka maine kiya kalam

hil hil gaya lahad me jigar buturab ka

are maqtal me neher hogaya bacha rabab ka

haay..

darbar me ye sunke qayamat ka tha samaa

are peero jawaan rote the lele ke hichkiya

bola ye hurmula abhi baaqi hai dastaa

jis dam tera husain tha teero ke darmiyaa

wo teer aakhri tha jo maine chalaya tha

arey us teer ne husain ko zee se giraya tha

haay..

phir shor wa husaina ka uthta tha baar baar

jab qaid karke laya gaya shimre bad sheyaar

bola wo mere haath me khanjar tha tez dhaar

jisse kiye husain ki gardan pe tera(13) waar

khanjar rawa tha halq pe ibne batool ke

dil kat rahe the saath me aale rasool ke

haay..

ab iske baad meer takallum baya ho kya

ae pursadaro sochna dil me kabhi zara

kyu itna waqt qatile shabbir ko laga

kis waste husain ka katta na tha gala

mehsher me ye khulega sitam kaynaat par

khanjar ke kuch nishaan hai zahra ke haath par
