Actor, FarhanAkhtar recites his Great-grandfather, MuztarKhairabadi’sPoetr~ Nakisikiaankhkanoorhoonnakisikedilkaqararhoon. . .
A five volume collection of MuztarKhairabadi’s poetry entitled “KHIRMAN”, compiled by ShriJavedAkhtar, was released by Shri M. Hamid
Ansari, Vice President of India in New Delhi on September 05, 2015.
The ghazal is as follows:
naa kisee kee aankh kaa nurhu, naa kisee ke dil kaa kararhu
jo kisee ke kamna aaa sake, mai woh ek mushtheghubarhu
naadawa-e-dard-e-jigar humai, naa kisi ki meethi nazarhu main,
naa idharhu main naa udharhu main, naa shakqeeb hunaatararhu
meraa rang rup bigadgaya, meraa waqt muhjse bichadgaya
jo chaman khi jan me ujadgaya, mai usikee fasle baharhu
pay fatiha koi aaye kyon, koi char phulchadayekyon
koi aake shamajalaye kyon, mai woh be-kasi kaa majarhu
naa main aaghu naa lagavhu, naa suhaaghu naa subhaavhu,
jo bi gadgaya wonaseebhu, jo nahiraha wodayarhu
naa toh mai kiseekaa habibhu, naa toh mai kisee kaa rakibhu
jobi gadchalagaya woh nasibhu, jo ujadgaya woh dayarhu
naa kiseekee aankh kaa nurhu, naa kiseeke dil kaa kararhu
jo kisee ke kamn aaaa sake, mai woh ek mushtheghubarhu
