Aziyyaton Ko Kisi Tarah Kam Na Kar Paya

Hakeem Manzoor

aziyyaton ko kisi tarah kam na kar paaya

men apne haath abhi tak qalam na kar paaya

havale laakh dalil ek bhi na de shayad

nazar men kyuun kisi manzar ko zam na kar paaya

hai be-tarash abhi dast-e-zehn men ik naqsh

ki is ke rang ko main ham-qalam na kar paaya

hai sharm tishna-labi us ki jis se bujh jaati

men itna ḳhun-e-jigar kyuun baham na kar paaya

tahi-e-samar mire daman ko hi Thaharna tha

main mausamon ke qaside raqam na kar paaya

taravaton se bhara lafz dars hai jis ka

isi se ḳhud ko abhi tak vo kam na kar paaya

saval-e-sang tha sarzad pa tha mira manzur

main chup raha ki main ḳhud par sitam na kar paaya
