ہر ایک بات پہ کہتے ہو تم کہ تو کیا ہے

تمہیں کہو کہ یہ انداز گفتگو کیا ہے

نہ شعلہ میں یہ کرشمہ نہ برق میں یہ ادا

کوئی بتاؤ کہ وہ شوخ تند خو کیا ہے

یہ رشک ہے کہ وہ ہوتا ہے ہم سخن تم سے

وگرنہ خوف بد آموزی عدو کیا ہے

چپک رہا ہے بدن پر لہو سے پیراہن

ہمارے جیب کو اب حاجت رفو کیا ہے

جلا ہے جسم جہاں دل بھی جل گیا ہوگا

کریدتے ہو جو اب راکھ جستجو کیا ہے

رگوں میں دوڑتے پھرنے کے ہم نہیں قائل

جب آنکھ ہی سے نہ ٹپکا تو پھر لہو کیا ہے

وہ چیز جس کے لیے ہم کو ہو بہشت عزیز

سوائے بادۂ گلفام مشک بو کیا ہے

پیوں شراب اگر خم بھی دیکھ لوں دو چار

یہ شیشہ و قدح و کوزہ و سبو کیا ہے

رہی نہ طاقت گفتار اور اگر ہو بھی

تو کس امید پہ کہیے کہ آرزو کیا ہے

ہوا ہے شہہ کا مصاحب پھرے ہے اتراتا

وگرنہ شہر میں غالبؔ کی آبرو کیا ہے

हर एक बात पे कहते हो तुम कि तू क्या है
तुम्हीं कहो कि ये अंदाज़-ए-गुफ़्तुगू क्या है

न शो’ले में ये करिश्मा न बर्क़ में ये अदा
कोई बताओ कि वो शोख़-ए-तुंद-ख़ू क्या है

ये रश्क है कि वो होता है हम-सुख़न तुम से
वगर्ना ख़ौफ़-ए-बद-आमोज़ी-ए-अदू क्या है

चिपक रहा है बदन पर लहू से पैराहन
हमारे जैब को अब हाजत-ए-रफ़ू क्या है

जला है जिस्म जहाँ दिल भी जल गया होगा
कुरेदते हो जो अब राख जुस्तुजू क्या है

रगों में दौड़ते फिरने के हम नहीं क़ाइल
जब आँख ही से न टपका तो फिर लहू क्या है

वो चीज़ जिस के लिए हम को हो बहिश्त अज़ीज़
सिवाए बादा-ए-गुलफ़ाम-ए-मुश्क-बू क्या है

पियूँ शराब अगर ख़ुम भी देख लूँ दो-चार
ये शीशा ओ क़दह ओ कूज़ा ओ सुबू क्या है

रही न ताक़त-ए-गुफ़्तार और अगर हो भी
तो किस उमीद पे कहिए कि आरज़ू क्या है

हुआ है शह का मुसाहिब फिरे है इतराता
वगर्ना शहर में ‘ग़ालिब’ की आबरू क्या है

No need to say here that the above ghazal is the kalam of Mirza Ghalib. His takhallus is his signature in the last Shair. Like the painters sign at the bottom of the canvas. Newer trend here is the thumb impression, biometric is the new signature. Going back in time.

The trigger for the above ghazal is here in the last stanza of this song:

aakaash se taare toot padey
aankh se tapki jo meri daastaan

A very special song for Mohammad Rafi fans. This is what is real effortless singing. He makes it sound as if it is his ‘baayen haathh ka khel’. And it was his forte to seamlessly go from one mood to another, go from light, comic mode to qawwali, sounding quite serious and melodious and switch to western style, all in the space of less than a minute. If what I say does not make sense, than one can only listen to this song and confirm. What range and what smoothness of voice and diction. And adding the punjabi tadka too in a spoken line towards the end of the song.
