    Interesting Fact

    Once someone heard Mushfiq Khwaja، the first line of one of Hari Chand's compositions where 'Hell' was treated as masculine. Khawaja was asked whether 'Hell' was masculine or feminine? Well... it should be avoided in both the cases, he replied. After a brief pause he humorously remarked ' it's a feminine as people often have a longing for it despite knowing its dreadful effect'.

    milegī shaiḳh ko jannat hameñ dozaḳh 'atā hogā

    bas itnī baat hai jis ke liye mahshar bapā hogā

    rahe do-do farishte saath ab insāf kyā hogā

    kisī ne kuchh likhā hogā kisī ne kuchh likhā hogā

    ba-roz-e-hashr hākim qādir-e-mutlaq ḳhudā hogā

    farishtoñ ke likhe aur shaiḳh bātoñ se kyā hogā

    tirī duniyā meñ sabr-o-shukr se ham ne basar kar

    tirī duniyā se baḌh kar bhī tire dozaḳh meñ kyā hogā

    sukūn-e-mustaqil dil be-tamannā shaiḳh sohbat

    ye jannat hai to is jannat se dozaḳh kyā burā hogā

    mire ash.ār par ḳhāmosh hai jiz-biz nahīñ hotā

    ye vā'iz vā’izoñ meñ kuchh haqīqat-āshnā hogā

    bharosa kis qadar hai tujh ko 'aḳhtar' us rahmat par

    agar vo shaiḳh-sāhib ḳhudā niklā to kyā hogā

    milegi shaiKH ko jannat hamein dozaKH 'ata hoga

    bas itni baat hai jis ke liye mahshar bapa hoga

    rahe do-do farishte sath ab insaf kya hoga

    kisi ne kuchh likha hoga kisi ne kuchh likha hoga

    ba-roz-e-hashr hakim qadir-e-mutlaq KHuda hoga

    farishton ke likhe aur shaiKH ki baaton se kya hoga

    teri duniya mein sabr-o-shukr se hum ne basar kar li

    teri duniya se baDh kar bhi tere dozaKH mein kya hoga

    sukun-e-mustaqil dil be-tamanna shaiKH ki sohbat

    ye jannat hai to is jannat se dozaKH kya bura hoga

    mere ashaar par KHamosh hai jiz-biz nahin hota

    ye wa'iz wa’izon mein kuchh haqiqat-ashna hoga

    bharosa kis qadar hai tujh ko 'aKHtar' us ki rahmat par

    agar wo shaiKH-sahib ka KHuda nikla to kya hoga
