Sher of Lala Madhav Ram Jauhar
dekhiye kyā dikhātī hai taqdīr
chup khaḌā huuñ gunāhgāroñ meñ
dekhiye kya dikhati hai taqdir
chup khaDa hun gunahgaron mein
barsāt kā mazā tire gesū dikhā ga.e
aks āsmān par jo paḌā abr chhā ga.e
barsat ka maza tere gesu dikha gae
aks aasman par jo paDa abr chha gae
niiñd aañkh meñ bharī hai kahāñ raat bhar rahe
kis ke nasīb tum ne jagā.e kidhar rahe
nind aankh mein bhari hai kahan raat bhar rahe
kis ke nasib tum ne jagae kidhar rahe
ilāhī kyā khule dīdār kī raah
udhar darvāze band āñkheñ idhar band
ilahi kya khule didar ki rah
udhar darwaze band aankhen idhar band
kū-e-jānāñ meñ na ġhairoñ kī rasā.ī ho jaa.e
apnī jāgīr ye yā-rab na parā.ī ho jaa.e
ku-e-jaanan mein na ghairon ki rasai ho jae
apni jagir ye ya-rab na parai ho jae
Thahrī jo vasl kī to huī sub.h shaam se
but mehrbāñ hue to ḳhudā mehrbāñ na thā
Thahri jo wasl ki to hui subh sham se
but mehrban hue to KHuda mehrban na tha
aa gayā 'jauhar' ajab ulTā zamāna kyā kaheñ
dost vo karte haiñ bāteñ jo adū karte nahīñ
aa gaya 'jauhar' ajab ulTa zamana kya kahen
dost wo karte hain baaten jo adu karte nahin
va.ada nahīñ payām nahīñ guftugū nahīñ
hairat hai ai ḳhudā mujhe kyuuñ intizār hai
wada nahin payam nahin guftugu nahin
hairat hai ai KHuda mujhe kyun intizar hai
is qamar ko kabhī to dekheñge
tiis din hote haiñ mahīne ke
is qamar ko kabhi to dekhenge
tis din hote hain mahine ke
kaun hote haiñ vo mahfil se uThāne vaale
yuuñ to jaate bhī magar ab nahīñ jaane vaale
kaun hote hain wo mahfil se uThane wale
yun to jate bhi magar ab nahin jaane wale

taḌap rahā hai dil ik nāvak-e-jafā ke liye
usī nigāh se phir dekhiye ḳhudā ke liye
taDap raha hai dil ek nawak-e-jafa ke liye
usi nigah se phir dekhiye KHuda ke liye
sadme uThā.eñ rashk ke kab tak jo ho so ho
yā to raqīb hī nahīñ yā aaj ham nahīñ
sadme uThaen rashk ke kab tak jo ho so ho
ya to raqib hi nahin ya aaj hum nahin
samjhā liyā fareb se mujh ko to aap ne
dil se to pūchh lījiye kyuuñ be-qarār hai
samjha liya fareb se mujh ko to aap ne
dil se to puchh lijiye kyun be-qarar hai
muḳhtār maiñ agar huuñ to majbūr kaun hai
majbūr aap haiñ to kise iḳhtiyār hai
muKHtar main agar hun to majbur kaun hai
majbur aap hain to kise iKHtiyar hai
hāl-e-dil sunte nahīñ ye kah ke ḳhush kar dete haiñ
phir kabhī fursat meñ sun leñge kahānī aap kī
haal-e-dil sunte nahin ye kah ke KHush kar dete hain
phir kabhi fursat mein sun lenge kahani aap ki

do hī din meñ ye sanam hosh-rubā hote haiñ

har kisī ke haath meñ hai ab nishānī aap kī
baz aae hum ye apna aap chhalla lijiye
har kisi ke hath mein hai ab nishani aap ki

dekha huzur ko jo mukaddar to mar gae
hum miT gae jo aap ne maili nigah ki

dil meñ aao maze hoñ jiine ke
khol duuñ maiñ kivāḌ siine ke
dil mein aao maze hon jine ke
khol dun main kiwaD sine ke
duniyā bahut ḳharāb hai jā-e-guzar nahīñ
bistar uThāo rahne ke qābil ye ghar nahīñ
duniya bahut KHarab hai ja-e-guzar nahin
bistar uThao rahne ke qabil ye ghar nahin
maiñ ne minnat kabhī kī ho to batā deñ zāhid
kaun se roz sifārish ko gunahgār aayā
main ne minnat kabhi ki ho to bata den zahid
kaun se roz sifarish ko gunahgar aaya
tum shāh-e-husn ho ke na pūchho faqīr se
aise bhare makān se ḳhālī gadā phire
tum shah-e-husn ho ke na puchho faqir se
aise bhare makan se KHali gada phire
ham ishq meñ haiñ fard to tum husn meñ yaktā
ham sā bhī nahīñ ek jo tum sā nahīñ koī
hum ishq mein hain fard to tum husn mein yakta
hum sa bhi nahin ek jo tum sa nahin koi
sab ko mahfil meñ nasīb un ke nazāre hoñge
ham kahīñ ġhash meñ paḌe ek kināre hoñge
sab ko mahfil mein nasib un ke nazare honge
hum kahin ghash mein paDe ek kinare honge
terā qusūr-vār ḳhudā kā gunāhgār
jo kuchh ki thā yahī dil-e-ḳhāna-ḳharāb thā
tera qusur-war KHuda ka gunahgar
jo kuchh ki tha yahi dil-e-KHana-KHarab tha

mausam-e-bārān-e-furqat meñ rulāne ke liye
mor din ko bol uThtā hai papīhā raat ko
mausam-e-baran-e-furqat mein rulane ke liye
mor din ko bol uThta hai papiha raat ko

holī kī shaam hī to sahar hai basant kī
munh par naqab-e-zard har ek zulf par gulal
holi ki sham hi to sahar hai basant ki
zarra samajh ke yuuñ na milā mujh ko ḳhaak meñ

zarra samajh ke yun na mila mujh ko KHak mein
ai aasman main bhi kabhi aaftab tha

'jauhar' tumhein nafrat hai bahut baada-kashi se
barsat mein dekhenge hum inkar tumhaara
