Bhule Hue Hain Sab Ki Hai Kar-E-Jahan Bahut

Asif Jamal

bhule hue hain sab ki hai kar-e-jahan bahut

lekin vo ek yaad hai dil par garan bahut

kuchh raftagan ke gham ne bhi rakkha hamen niDhal

kuchh sadma-ha-e-nau se rahe nim-jan bahut

ham ko na zulf-e-yar na divar se gharaz

ham ko to yad-e-yar ki parchha.iyan bahut

vo sard-mehriyan ki hamen raakh kar ga.iin

sunte hain pahle ham bhi the atish-ba-jan bahut

ik mauj-e-fitna-sar ki ravan har nafas men hai

har dam yaqin se pahle uThe hain guman bahut

ab ke junun men mauj-e-saba ka bhi haath hai

mauj-e-saba ki ab ke uThi sargiran bahut

ab ye ḳhabar nahin vo samundar hai ya sarab

apne yahan hai tishnagi-e-jism-o-jan bahut

sahra se varna apna ilaqa nahin hai kuchh

ashuftagi-e-sar ki hava hai yahan bahut
