Qaa'im Chanpuri: aaKhiree qist
Zafar
QAA'IM CHANDPURI
majlis e va'az to taa-dair rahe gee Qaa'im
ye hai maiKhaana, abhee pee ke chale aate hai
---
ab savaal ye paidaa hotaa hai k aaKhir Qaa'im (alternative spellings:
Qaim Chandpuri, Qaaim Chandpuri, Qaem Chandpuri) ko vo shuhrat kyoN na
milee jis ke vo haqdaar the? chand vujoohaat mandarja zail ho saktee
haiN:
1.
Qaa'im Dilli ke rehne vaale naheeN the:
aik saahib Mir kee shaagirdee iKhtiyaar karne kee Gharaz se aa'ye aur
kuchh kalaam ba taur e namoona paish kiyaa. Mir ne thoRaa sukoot kiyaa
phir poochhaa, "vatan e maaloof?" bole, Barah Banki se ta'aluq hai.
Mir ne farmaayaa, "miyaaN, RaiKhta Khaas Dilli kaa mahaavara hai, tum
is meN kyaa shaa'iree karo ge. apnee Farsi Varsi keh liya karo!"
ye Dilli (aur ba'ad meN Lucknow) kee vo "imperialism" thee jo kisee
"baahar vaale" ko bardaasht naheeN kar saktee thee. aap ne dekhaa ho
gaa k 20veeN sadee meN Yas Yagana jaise shaa'ir ko apnaa aap manvaane
ke li'ye Lucknow vaaloN se chau-mukhee laRnaa paRee jo unheN Lucknow
kaa paidaa'ishee na hone kee vajh se shaa'ir maan'ne ke li'ye tayyaar
naheeN the.
'ajeeb "irony" hai k Qaa'im ne Khud kahaa thaa:
Qaa'im maiN Ghazal* taur kiyaa RaiKhta** varna [*Farsi shaa'iree;
**Urdu shaa'iree]
ik baat lachar*** see ba-zabaan e Dakanee thee [*** bai-tukee]
dekhi'ye k Qaa'im kaisee haqaarat se "zabaan e Dakanee" kaa zikr karte
haiN, haalaaN k yehee vo "lachar" zabaan hai jis ne Qaa'im ko is
qaabil banaayaa k vo mazkoora ta'alee kar sakte!
phir doosree baat ye k zindagee kaa aksar hissa Dilli se door guzaarne
kee Saudaa ko tash'heer kaa vo 'plateform' (mushaa'ire,
ustaadee/shaagirdee, vG) muyassar naheeN thaa jo un ke ba'az doosre
ham-'asaroN ke tasarruf meN thaa.
2.
Qaa'im Saudaa ke shaagird the:
ye baat baRee aham hai kyoN k har jagah Qaa'im kaa zikr un ke ustaad
par "mustazaad" ke zimn meN aataa hai aur tazkira nigaar un kee
KhoobioN ko mahaz faizaan e Saudaa qaraar de dete haiN. (yehee naheeN
bal k, jaisaa k is silsile kee doosree qist meN bayaan huvaa thaa,
Qaa'im ke ba'az behtareen ash'aar ustaad ke khaate meN Daal di'ye
ga'ye haiN!) ye aik aisaa Thappaa thaa jis se Qaa'im apne aap ko
kabhee na bachaa sake. aap ne dekhaa ho gaa us daur ke taqreeban
sabhee baRe shu'araa (Saudaa, Mir, Dard, vG) kaa ko'yee *baa-qaaida*
ustaad naheeN thaa.
[haashiya: shaa'iree meN ustaadee-shaagirdee kaa idaara (institution)
vaise bhee 1750 ke lag bhag qaa'im huvaa, varna pehle is kaa tasavvur
naheeN thaa. aur ham dekhte haiN k 1750 aate aate Saudaa, Mir aur Dard
teenoN bharpoor andaaz meN "establish" ho chuke haiN.]
3.
Qaa'im kaa ko'yee alag rang naheeN hai:
Mir ke baare meN mash'hoor hai k dard o Gham ke shaa'ir haiN. dard o
Gham kee shaa'iree (sauz o gudaaz, asar-angaizee, jazbaat-nigaaree,
vG, vG) Mir kee eejaad naheeN haiN lekin Mir ne idhar udhar se (yaa
yooN keh leeji'ye k "Zeitgeist" se) kankariyaaN chun chun kar apnaa
alag makaan 'aaleeshaan ta'ameer kar liyaa. Saudaa ko us kaa qaseeda
(aur hijv!) bachaa gayaa. Dard tasavvuf kee naa'o meN savaar,
manjhdaar e gumnaamee (!) par se guzar ga'ye. Qaa'im kee kalGhee meN
is tarah kaa ko'yee "outstanding" par naheeN thaa, is li'ye
naqqaar-Khaane meN un kee aavaaz gum ho kar reh ga'yee.
*****
to ye thee Qaa'im Chandpuri ke ta'aaruf kee aik adnaa see koshish. haq
to ye hai k haq adaa naheeN huvaa, lekin shaayad ye sutoor kuchh na'ye
dostoN ke kisee kaam aa jaa'ye, aur agar Google mahaaraaj par ko'yee
Qaa'im kaa naam DhoonDnaa chaahe to use bilkul hee naa-muraad na
lauTnaa paRe!
aaKhir meN Qaa'im kee aik Ghazal ke chand ash'aar:
na Gham buraa hai na 'aish o nishaat behtar hai
sabhee masaavee haiN yaaN, ye faqeer kaa ghar hai
hamaaree chashm se seekhe ko'yee karam k sadaa
guhar ye baKhshe hai tis par bhee sharm se tar hai
hai aah o naala se mere jahaaN pe arsa tang
ye shab hai hijr kee yaa rab k rauz e mehshar hai
kare hai aa'eena kyaa aasteen se too saaf
tire to haath se 'aalam kaa dil mukaddar hai
hooN mast o chaak kee hai pairahan kee dil meN havas
bataa'ye mujh ko gireebaaN ko'yee k kaidhar hai
[vaah, kyaa she'er kahaa hai!]
Duboyaa aah too [ne] Qaa'im mujhe bhee apne saath
ai bai-Khabar maiN [ne] to jaanaa thee too shanaavar hai!
aadaab arz hai,
