Pakistan Ke Siyasatdano ki nazar

गोया इनकी दाढ़ी में तिनके बहुत हैं
अमेरिका, लश्कर, तालिबान, गिन लें बहुत हैं

चाक दामन इनका, न आंत है न दांत है
ventilator पे है system, फिर भी ठाठ है

अमेरिका के recession की, अस्ल ख़ाक भी यहीं है
कहने को हैं जाहिद पाक ये, अस्ल में नापाक भी यही हैं

Note--
ये अशार सियासतदारों और दहशतगर्दों के मत्तालिक हैं, आवाम की सोच और नज़रिए का इस से कोई लेना देना नहीं है| फिर भी किसी के जज्बे को ठेस पहुँचे तो में मुआफी का मुस्तहक हूँ

Mehdi Sahab ki Janib Se

News Item

Legendry ghazal singer Mehdi Hassan may soon be discharged from the hospital, but would require a 24 hour nursing care at home too.

While Pakistan Government has shown concern over the health of the sick 'Shahenshah-e-Ghazal' Mehdi Hassain with President Asif Ali Zardari and the Chief Minister of Sindh providing one million rupees and 250,000 rupees respectively for the treatment, his family members said they are finding it hard to pay the medical bills, a media report said.

"My family, which has exhausted even its rainy day securities, is now badly failing to foot the treatment bills," Hassan's son Arif Hassan said.

Doctors attending Hassan said that he has been suffering from disorientation for a long time now, and is often unable to recognise even his family members. He was admitted to the Aga Khan University Hospital here last month after complains of weakness, fever and chronic lungs infection.

"We have diagnosed him with sepsis (generalised infection) and treated him dedicatedly, and are optimistic that though he remains weak, he will be returning to his home in two days or so," Hassan's consultant neurologist Dr Aziz Sonawala said.

"Overall he is showing good signs, but he will need 24-hour nursing care at home," Dr Sonawala added.

Hassan had suffered a paralytic stroke in the past due to which he lost his physical mobility.

वैसे तो चर्चा हर सू, मेरा कम न था
जाने कियों था तन्हा, कोई हमदम न था

महफिलें कुछ कम हमने, तेरी रोशन न कीं
तन्हाई के अफ्सुर्दः आलम में, कोई हमदम न था

हर ज़ख्म ज़माने का, हंस-हंस के सहा था
तुने जो यह दर्द दिया, कोई मरहम न था

ज़िन्दगी की रफ़्तार में, शायद पीछे रह गया
जदीद न रहे नगमे मेरे, हौसला कम न था

मकबूलियत भी मेरी, बड़ी न-गवार गुज़री
गुमनाम रहते तो बे-इख्तेयारी का, कोई ग़म न था
