Bechaini

hamein bhi nind aa jaegi hum bhi so hi jaenge abhi kuchh be-qarari hai sitaro tum to so jao

lagta nahin hai dil mera ujde dayar mein kis ki bani hai aalam-e-na-paedar mein my heart, these dismal ruins, cannot now placate who can find sustenance in this unstable state the speaker feels estranged in a place that has been devastated, so even home no longer feels like home. the “ruined land” becomes a metaphor for loss—of belonging, peace, and former life. the second line widens the pain into a universal truth: the world is impermanent, and lasting fulfillment is rare. together, the couplet holds private sorrow and philosophical resignation in one breath.

bechain is qadar tha ki soya na raat bhar palkon se likh raha tha tera nam chand par

aa ki tujh bin is tarah ai dost ghabraata hun main jaise har shai mein kisi shai ki kami pata hun main

hum ko na mil saka to faqat ek sukun-e-dil ai zindagi wagarna zamane mein kya na tha

bichhad gae to ye dil umr bhar lagega nahin lagega lagne laga hai magar lagega nahin

na kar 'sauda' tu shikwa hum se dil ki be-qarari ka mohabbat kis ko deti hai miyan aaram duniya mein

tujh ko pa kar bhi na kam ho saki be-tabi-e-dil itna aasan tere ishq ka gham tha hi nahin the speaker admits that union does not cure the inner turmoil of love. “restlessness of the heart” becomes a metaphor for a desire that keeps renewing itself, even when the beloved is attained. the couplet carries a quiet disillusionment: love’s grief is not a problem with a simple solution, but a deep, enduring condition.

bhole ban kar haal na puchho bahte hain ashk to bahne do jis se badhe bechaini dil ki aisi tasalli rahne do

roe baghair chaara na rone ki tab hai kya chiz uf ye kaifiyat-e-iztirab hai

dil ko khuda ki yaad tale bhi daba chuka kam-bakht phir bhi chain na pae to kya karun

kuchh mohabbat ko na tha chain se rakhna manzur aur kuchh un ki inayat ne jine na diya

ishq mein be-tabiyan hoti hain lekin ai 'hasan' jis qadar bechain tum ho us qadar koi na ho

kisi pahlu nahin chain aata hai ushshaq ko tere tadapte hain fughan karte hain aur karwat badalte hain

aah qasid to ab talak na phira dil dhadakta hai kya hua hoga

mere dil ne dekha hai yun bhi un ko uljhan mein bar bar kamre mein bar bar aangan mein

bataen kya ki bechaini badhate hain wahi aa kar bahut bechain hum jin ke liye malum hote hain

unhen khat mein likkha tha dil muztarib hai jawab un ka aaya mohabbat na karte tumhein dil lagane ko kis ne kaha tha bahal jaega dil bahalte bahalte

turbat mein bhi na sone diya chain se mujhe saya meri zamin pe kis aasman ka tha

barq o simab ka 'agha' na rahe nam-o-nishan dil ki betabi se ek bar jo muztar main hun
