Adil Mansuri
darvaza band dekh ke mere makan ka
jhonka hava ka khidki ke parde hila gaya
vo jan-e-nau-bahar jidhar se guzar gaya
pedon ne phuul patton se rasta chhupa liya
us ke qarib jaane ka anjam ye hua
main apne-ap se bhi bahut duur ja pada
angdai le rahi thi gulistan men jab bahar
har phuul apne rang ki atish men jal gaya
kante se tutte hain mire ang ang men
rag rag men chand jalta hua zahr bhar gaya
ankhon ne us ko dekha nahin is ke bavajud
dil us ki yaad se kabhi ghafil nahin raha
darvaza khatkhata ke sitare chale gae
khvabon ki shaal odh ke main unghta raha
shab chandni ki aanch men tap kar nikhar gai
suraj ki jalti aag men din khaak ho gaya
sadken tamam dhuup se angara ho gaiin
andhi havaen chalti hain in par barhana-pa
vo aae thodi der ruke aur chale gae
‘adil’ main sar jhukae hue chup khada raha
