تم بھی تھے سر_دار سر_ دار تھا میں بھی
یہ جسم رکاوٹ تھا میرے عشق میں شاید
ممکن ہے کہ بے تاب رہا ہو کبھی تو بھی
بازار میں لایا گیا یوسف کی طرح میں
خود اپنے تعاقب میں نکل آیا تھا گھر سے
چہرے کی جگہ صرف خراشیں ہیں نمایاں
اے! گردش_ دوراں یہ تغیر نہیں اچھا
خود بیچنے نکلا تھا صفی خود کو جہاں میں
تم دیکھ تو لیتے کہ نمودار تھا میں بھی
اور سچ ہے کہ اس جسم سے بیزار تھا میں بھی
یادوں کی اذیت میں گرفتار تھا میں بھی
کچھ دیر سہی رونق_ بازار تھا میں بھی
خود اپنی عداوت میں گرفتار تھا میں بھی
بستی میں کبھی آئنہ بردار تھا میں بھی
تو سوچ کبھی صاحب_ دستار تھا میں بھی
اور بھیڑ میں خود اپنا خریدار تھا میں بھی
Islam recognizes the status and respect of other faiths and communities for socioeconomic and sociopolitical development.
