These Eyes یہ آنکھیں

Rating: 5.0

آنكھوں کی اپنی ایک الگ دُنیا ہے
ان کا اپنا ایک الگ سورج ہے
ان کا اپنا ایک الگ چَانْد ہے
ان کی اپنی ایک الگ زمین ہے
یہ سورج کی طرح چمکتی بھی ہیں
اندھیرے مٹاتی ہیں
روشنیان پھیلاتی ہیں
دِل کا حَال بتاتی بھی ہیں
اور دِل کو حَال سناتی بھی ہیں.
انکی اپنی الگ خدائی ہے
ان کے اپنے الگ اوتار ہیں.
تمہیں پتہ ہے یہ شرماتی بھی ہیں
کچہ کہتے کہتے رک جاتی بھی ہیں
اور دِل کو گدگداتی بھی ہیں
کوئی پیاری سی صورت جب اچانک سامنے آ جائے
تو یہ جہک جاتی بھی ہیں
اور دھیرے سے مسکراتی بھی ہیں
یہ جب بند ہوتی ہیں تو سپنے دیکھتی ہیں
اور جب کھلتی ہیں تو شرارتین بنتی ہیں
انکی شرارتون سے بچ کر رہنا پڑتا ہے
پہلے تو بس ایک آئسکریم کا کپ کافی ہوتا تھا
اب تو پُورا ایک مہنگا جوڑا دینا پڑتا ہے
زیورات اور نہ جانے کیا کیا دینا پڑتا ہے
اگر ایک بار یہ رو دیں
تو ایسا توفان نوح آتا ہے
کہہ ساری خدائی ڈوب جاتی ہے
سورج ڈوب جاتا ہے
چَانْد بھی نہیں نکلتا ہے
ستارے کہیں جا کر چُہپ جاتے ہیں
پِھر کوئی اوتار بھی نہیں آتاہے
خدارا یہ قیامت نہ آنے دینا
یہ آنکھیں جو کل تک اک بیٹی کی آنکھیں تھیں
پِھر اک بہن کی آنکھیں بنیں
اب تمھاری شریک حَیات کی آنکھیں ہیں
ان کو ماں کی آنکھیں بن جانا ہے
ان کو ایک نانی کی آنکھیں بن جانا ہے
ان کو ایک دادی کی آنکھیں بن جانا ہے
ان کو کئی نسلوں کی آنکھیں بن جانا ہے
یہ ساری آنے والی نسلیں
ہاتھ جوڑے کھڑی ہیں
ہمیں اِس دُنیا میں آنے سے پہلے ہی مار نہ دینا
خدارا انیہین مت رلانا
ہان یہ روتی بھی ہیں!
تُم انہیں ہنسا دینا ،
کبھی روٹھ جائیں تو منا لینا.

These Eyes

Eyes have their own word
they have a separate sun
they have different moon
they have their own earth.
Like a sun they shine
erase darkness of life
by spreading light.
They describe a heart silently
and they talk to the heart as well.
They have their own universe.
Their prophesy is different.
Do you know these eyes shock by shyness?
That's how they titillate the heart.
When a lovely face comes in the sight
these eyes want but fail to see it completely.
Amazing is their shyness!
They start talking but stop in the middle,
leaving the rest for a half smile.
When their lids are closed these eyes dream
but when open they become naughty sometimes.
Beware of their naughtiness.
Earlier a cup of ice cream was enough
but now a lot they demand in the in this RomanticEast.
A costly bridal dress
jewelry of gold and many other things.
If these eyes cry
the land of love is flooded
the universe of eyes vanishes in a black hole.
No sun, no moon, and no stars,
and no prophet for a rescue.
In the name of God,
avoid such a storm of Noah!
One day these eyes were the eyes of a daughter only,
then it became eyes of a caressing sister,
now these eyes are the eyes of your life partner.
That's not the end
rather beginning of a long journey,
these eyes are to become eyes of a sacrificing mother,
these eyes are to become eyes of an affectionate grandmother,
these eyes are to become eyes of many generations.
All those generations humbly request,
let us come in your world to play our role,
don't kill us in an uncalled strife.
Please don't bring tears in these beautiful eyes.
Yes these eyes of a woman cry, too!
Wipe their tears before they fall.
Do anything to bring an avenging smile.
Make them smiling please,
pacify the cross woman with a lovely appease.
