Beekay sahib,

I have several versions of this nazm and they all say “daaman-e-dahar…”, I think you may have a wrong version of it.
The lines you provided, especially the second one (nasoor jazb hai…) is not in the same meter as this whole nazm, it is definitely a mistake in your book.
Sorry for the late reply.

The “shair” beginning with ‘Daaman-e-dahar pe….’ is different in the urdu version I have. It reads: “Seena dhar ke nasoor haiN….nasoor Jazb hai in me tere mare ajdad ka khoon.” Was Taj Mahal written in two different versions? Please help me. Thank you…..Beekay Srinivas.

Absolutely spectacular, especially the last verse which overturns the entire ode into a brilliant satire - wah, kya baat hai Sahir sahb!

What a beautiful poeam. No one every looked at Taj Mahal with the sight of Sahir, the poet of the poor and oppressed.

ye chamanzaar ye jamunaa kaa kinaaraa ye mahal
ye munaqqash dar-o-deevaar, ye mehraab ye taaq
ik shahanshaah ne daulat ka sahaaraa le kar
ham GhariiboN kii muhabbat kaa uRaayaa hai mazaaq
