کیا سوتا ہے بھگوان – جوش ملیح آبادی
کیا سوتا ہے بھگوان
دھرتی ہالے ڈولے جھٹکے اور ہچکولے
پتھر ہو گئے پولے کیونکر نہ اُڑیں اوسان
کیاسوتاہے بھگوان
گرتی دیواروں نے جلتے انگاروں نے
چلتی تلواروں نے کر ڈالا ہے ہلکان
کیاسوتاہے بھگوان
جو نگری تھی آباد لاج بھری اور آزاد
ہر دل تھا جس میں شاد وہ نگری ہے ویران
کیاسوتاہے بھگوان
گھس آیاگھر میں چور کب ہوویگی اب بھور
ایساہے پوَن کازور جیسے ارجن کے بان
کیاسوتا ہے بھگوان
क्या सोता है भगवान – जोश मलीहाबादी
क्या सोता है भगवान
धरती हाल डोले झटके और हच्कोले
पत्थर हो गए पोल क्यूंकर ना उड़ें औसान
क्या सोता है भगवान
गिरती दीवारों ने जलते अंगारों ने
चलती तलवारों ने कर डाला हलकान
क्या सोता है भगवान
जो नगरी थी आबाद लाज भरी और आज़ाद
हर दिल था जिस में शाद वो नगरी हुई वीरान
क्या सोता है भगवान
घुस आया घर में चोर कब होवेगी अब भोर
ऐसा है पवन का ज़ोर जैसे अर्जुन के बान
क्या सोता है भगवान
kya sota hai bhagwan – josh maleehabadi

The earth staggers, it stumbles. It is pushed and jerked around. Once solid rocks have gone porous, no wonder we lose senses. Is god asleep?

The homeland that was thriving, self-respecting and free. Where everyone was happy. That homeland is now desolate. Is god asleep?

Robbers have broken into the house. When will this night end. The stormy wind so fierce. It pierces like Arjun’s arrow. Is god asleep?
