Rakhshan Hashmi
diye jala ke havaon ke munh pe maar aaya
koi to hai jo andheron ka qarz utaar aaya
khuda se jab bhi kadi dhuup ki shikayat ki
to meri raah men ek ped saya-dar aaya
kahan hui kabhi us se hamari did-o-shunid
hava ke rath pe hamesha hi vo savar aaya
sukun bantti phirti huun main zamane men
na jaane kyuun mire hisse men intishar aaya
hazar baar mira dard muskuraega
hazar baar agar mausam-e-bahar aaya
sabab main dhund rahi thi miri udasi ka
tira khayal mujhe aaj baar baar aaya
kiya hai us ne hi gharat mira sukun magar
usi ke naam pe ‘rakhshan’ mujhe qarar aaya
