Recitation
ہر راہگزر جائے ۔ شِو پرشاد وششٹ جاویدؔ فتح پوری
۱
عالم ہو یہ مستی کا، جب سجدے میں سر جائے
مستوں کی بلا جانے، شام آئے سحر جائے
۲
یہ دیر و حرم والے، کیوں راہ میں لڑتے ہیں
جب ایک ہی منزل تک ہر راہگزر جائے
۳
یہ دل کا سفینہ بھی، پروردۂ طوفاں ہے
ٹکرا کے تلاطم سے، ڈوبے تو اُبھر جائے
۴
وہ کون سی منزل ہے، وہ کون سا جادہ ہے
انساں ہو جہاں انساں جس سمت بشر جائے
۵
بےتابیِ دل سے تھی آوارگیِ پیہم
اب کون اِدھر آئے اب کون اُدھر جائے
۶
تقدیر چمک اُٹّھے، اُن خاک نشینوں کی
تو جن کو محبت سے ٹُھکرا کے گزر جائے
۷
رُت گیت کنول بھنورا، رس روپ کلی خوشبو
ہمراہ چلیں اُس کے، وہ شوخ جِدھر جائے
۸
بیٹھے جو ترے در پر، منہ موڑ کے دنیا سے
وہ اُٹھ کے ترے در سے، جائے تو کِدھر جائے
۹
آنسو بھی ہیں شبنم بھی، کلیاں بھی ہیں تارے بھی
سب کچھ ہے نظاروں تک گر تیری نظر جائے
۱۰
جاویدؔ نے کہہ دی ہے، اشعار کے پردے میں
وہ بات جو نشتر سی ہر دل میں اُتر جائے
हर राहगुज़र जाए – शिव प्रशाद वशिष्ठ जावेद फ़तह पुरी
१
आलम हो यह मस्ती का, जब सज्दे में सर जाए
मस्तों की बला जाने, शाम आए सहर जाए
२
ये दैर ओ हरम वाले, क्यूं राह में लढते हैं
जब एक ही मंज़िल तक हर राहगुज़र जाए
३
ये दिल का सफ़ीना भी, परवर्दा-ए तूफ़ाँ है
टकरा के तलातुम से, डूबे तो उभर जाए
४
वो कौन सी मंज़िल है, वो कौन सा जादा है
इन्सां हो जहाँ इन्सां जिस सिम्त बशर जाए
५
बेताबी-ए दिल से थी आवारगी-ए पैहम
अब कौन इधर आए अब कौन उधर जाए
६
तक़्दीर चमक उठे, उन ख़ाक-नशीनों की
तू जिन को मोहब्बत से ठुकरा के गुज़र जाए
७
रुत गीत कंवल भँवरा, रस रूप कली ख़ुशबू
हमराह चलें उस के, वो शूख़ जिधर जाए
८
बैठे जो तेरे दर पर, मुँह मोढ के दुनिया से
वो उठ के तेरे दर से, जाए तो किधर जाए
९
आँसू भी हैं शबनम भी, कलियाँ भी हैं तारे भी
सब कुछ है नज़ारों तक गर तेरी नज़र जाए
१०
जावेद ने कह दी है, अश’आर के पर्दे में
वो बात जो नश्तर सी हर दिल में उतर जाए

1
aalam1 ho yeh masti2 ka, jab sajde3 meN sar jaa’e
mastoN4 ki balaa5 jaan’e, shaam aa’e sahar6 jaa’e 1.condition, state 2.intoxication, trance 3.prostration, bowing in prayer 4.drunk in love, mad lovers 5.an expression meaning ‘who cares’ 6.dawn, morning
The ecstatic state/trance should be such that when the head bows in prayer, the mad lovers are completely unaware of the passage of time. They don’t care whether it is evening or dawn, they transcend time.
2
yeh da’er1 o haram2 vaale, kyuN raah3 meN laRte4 haiN
jab ek hi manzil5 tak har raahguzar3 jaa’e 1.temple 2.mosque 3.path 4.quarrel 5.destination
Why do these people of temple and mosque quarrel along the path, when all paths lead to the same destination.
3
yeh dil kaa safiina1 bhi, parvarda2-e tufaaN3 hai
Takraa4 ke talaatum5 se, Duube to ubhar6 jaa’e 1.boat 2.nurtured 3.storm 4.clash, confront 5.storm 6.emerge
This heart is like a boat nurtured by storms; confronting tempests if it is sunk, it emerges again. The symbolism is of a storm of love. Whoever immerses themselves completely in love, emerges triumphant. Said amiir Khusro …
Khusro darya prem ka, ulTi vaa ki dhaar
jo utra so Doob gaya, jo Dooba so paar
… and jigar muradabadi …
ye ishq nahiN aasaaN itna hi samajh liije
ek aag ka dariya hai aur Doob ke jaana hai
4
voh kaun si manzil1 hai, voh kaun saa jaada2 hai
insaaN ho jahaaN3 insaaN jis samt4 bashar5 jaa’e 1.destination 2.path 3.where 4.direction 5.human
Which destination is it, where is the pathway in which humanity is universal; whatever direction one turns, there are human beings only i.e., they are not divided into religions or sects. The destination and the path that the poet is looking for is the path of love.
5
betaabi1-e dil se thi aavaargi2-e paiham3
ab kaun idhar aa’e ab kaun udhar jaa’e 1.restlessness 2.wandering, lost 3.repeated, constant
Restlessness-betaabi is probably restlessness because of the temptations and illusions of the material world. One can easily get lost in the constant wandering-flitting from one attraction to the other. The poet/sufi yearns for contentment-why should one keep turning from here to there, he asks.
6
taqdiir1 chamak uTThe, un Khaak-nashiinoN2 ki
tu jin ko mohabbat se Thukraa3 ke guzar4 jaa’e 1.fate, destiny 2.dust-dwellers, downtrodden, rejected 3.kick, reject
mohabbat se Thukraana- reject lovingly is a contradiction but can nevertheless be conceived as an act of love rather one of anger. Destiny shines on the humble khaak-nashiiN whom you reject lovingly. I am not sure I understand this. Is this addressed to the earthly beloved or the divine beloved. Is it a statement of humility that being lovingly rejected is enough. There is no expectation of success in love.
7
rut1 giit kaNval bhaNvraa, ras2 ruup3 kali Khushbuu
hamraah4 chaleN uss ke, voh shooKh5 jidhar jaa’e 1.season (spring) 2.juice, nectar 3.beauty 4.follow, accompany 5.playful, beloved
A sensual ode to the beloved – seasons, songs, lotuses, bees, nectar, beauty, buds and fragrance all follow wherever that playful one goes.
8
baiThe jo tere dar1 par, muNh moR2 ke duniyaa se
voh uTh ke tere dar se, jaa’e to kidhar3 jaa’e 1.door 2.turning away from 3.where
Those who sit at your door turning away from/renouncing the (material) world have no other place to go – where could they go from your threshold?
9
aaNsu bhi haiN shabnam1 bhi, kaliyaaN bhi haiN taare bhi
sab kuch hai nazaaroN2 tak gar teri nazar3 jaa’e 1.dew 2.withing sight 3.eyes, gaze, glance
Here teri nazar could be the gaze of the poet himself. Thus, tears, dew, buds and stars are all before you to see if only you raise your eyes and gaze at them. This could be an implication that god created beauty is all around you. All you have to do is, look.
10
jaaved1 ne kah dii hai, ash’aar ke parde meN
voh baat jo nashtar2 sii har dil meN utar jaa’e 1.pen-name 2.knife
jaaved says words (meanings) hidden behind the veil of ash’aar that descend into every heart like a knife … either painful, heart touching or heart warming truths.
