Ghazal
ज़मिस्तानी हवा में गरचे थी शमशीर की तेज़ी
This ghazal narrates a tale of intense, spirited, and socio-political upheaval, depicting the interplay between individual prowess and the changing nature of social order. It moves from the vibrancy of a gathering to questioning the shifting forces of the era and the nature of power. Ultimately, it suggests that whether it is the glory of royalty or a democratic spectacle, a certain eternal truth remains separate from politics.

ज़मिस्तानी हवा में गरचे थी शमशीर की तेज़ी
न छूटे मुझ से लंदन में भी आदाब-ए-सहर-ख़ेज़ी
In the zemin's wind, the saber's swiftness roared,
Let not my manners, even in London, be ignored.
The saber's swiftness roared in the earthy wind, and may my manners not be ignored even in London.

कहीं सरमाया-ए-महफ़िल थी मेरी गर्म-गुफ़्तारी
कहीं सब को परेशाँ कर गई मेरी कम-आमेज़ी
Sometimes my warm conversation was the delight of the gathering,
Sometimes my lack of presence disturbed everyone.
Sometimes my warm conversation was the delight of the gathering, and sometimes my absence disturbed everyone.

ज़माम-ए-कार अगर मज़दूर के हाथों में हो फिर क्या
तरीक़-ए-कोहकन में भी वही हीले हैं परवेज़ी
If the tools of the craft are in the hands of the laborer, then what
Are there such differences in the paths of the beloved?
If the tools of the craft are in the hands of the laborer, then what are there such differences in the paths of the beloved?

जलाल-ए-पादशाही हो कि जम्हूरी तमाशा हो
जुदा हो दीं सियासत से तो रह जाती है चंगेज़ी
Whether it is the glory of the empire, or a republican spectacle,
If it is separated from politics, then it remains Genghis.
Whether it is the glory of the empire or a republican spectacle, if it is separated from politics, it remains Genghis.

सवाद-ए-रौमत-उल-कुबरा में दिल्ली याद आती है
वही इबरत वही अज़्मत वही शान-ए-दिल-आवेज़ी
In the fragrant scent of Rumt-ul-Kubra, Delhi is remembered,
That same glory, that same grandeur, that same pride of the heart.
In the fragrant scent of Rumt-ul-Kubra, Delhi is remembered; that same glory, that same grandeur, and that same pride of the heart are recalled.
