Faiz Ahmad Faiz
jab suraj ne jaate jaate
ashghabad ke niile ufuq se
apne sunahri jaam
men dhali
surkhi-e-avval-e-sham
aur ye jaam
tumhare samne rakh kar
tum se kya kalam
kaha parnam
uttho
aur apne tan ki sej se uth kar
ik shirin paigham
sabt karo is shaam
kisi ke naam
kanar-e-jam
shayad tum ye maan gaiin aur tum ne
apne lab-e-gulfam
kiye inaam
kisi ke naam
kanar-e-jam
ya shayad
tum apne tan ki sej pe saj kar
thiin yuun mahv-e-aram
ki raste takte takte
bujh gai sham-e-jam
ashghabad ke niile ufuq par
gharat ho gai shaam
Evening in Ashkabaad
