Ahmad Javed
dil-e-betab ke hamrah safar men rahna
ham ne dekha hi nahin chain se ghar men rahna
svang bharna kabhi shahi kabhi durveshi ka
kisi surat se mujhe us ki nazar men rahna
ek halat pe basar ho nahin sakti meri
jama-e-khak kabhi khilat-e-zar men rahna
din men hai fikr-e-pas-andazi-e-sarmaya-e-shab
raat bhar kavish-e-saman-e-sahar men rahna
dil se bhage to liya dida-e-tar ne goya
aag se bach ke nikalna to bhanvar men rahna
ahl-e-duniya bahut aram se rahte hain magar
kab mayassar hai tiri rahguzar men rahna
vasl ki raat gai hijr ka din bhi guzra
mujhe varaftagi-e-hal-e-digar men rahna
kar chuka hai koi aflak o zamin ki takmil
phir bhi har aan mujhe arz-e-hunar men rahna
