Aise Daro-Deevaar ka ik Ghar Banaana Chaahiye

Suddenly this morning, I remembered one line from a Ghazal by Mirza Ghalib:

          "Be daro-deevaar sa ik ghar banaaya chaahiye"

Considering the phase, we are going through nowadays, 

I thought if we want to bring the good old days back, then we should also try to build such a house:

           "Aisay daro -deevaar ka ik ghar banaana chaahiye " 

Then, swiftly - inexorably this Nazm (poem) started to flow in my mind like a stream.

Sadaaqat aur dayaanat daari
kee eenton say bani
Buniyaad par, 
Tiki ho ik aisee 
                           Aimaal ki imaarat 
jis ki daro deevaar say
chhalakati hon 
Mohabbat aur 
Eesaar kee kirnain, 
jis ki dahaleej par 
Faraib aur aiyyaari kay
kaarobaar na hon,
Mehaz khaloos say hoti ho
                        Mohabbat ki tijaarat 
Nafarat ki zang-aasooda 
Chitkani jahaan 
darvaazon par na ho, 
Hasad-aamez havaa ka 
jahaan koyi guzar na ho, 
Anaa ki oonchi oonchi
aasmaan ko chhooti
vahaan koyi chhatain na hon,
Hirso-havaa ya rashk ki 
garmi na ho vahaan -
Mehsoos ho havaa mein 
            Mohabbat ki haraarat 

Mil kay 'Rajan' sab ko 
          aisaa ghar banaana chaahiye 
phir se agar vo sunehara 
           vaqt puraana chaahiye

              'Rajan Sachdeva'
