Zehra Nigaah
ek din thaka-manda
ek shaam be-maani
ek raat hairan si
mere saath ye tinon
mere ghar men rahte hain
ek dusre se kam
apne aap se ham log
baat karte rahte hain
uljhe suljhe lamhon ki
vaqt chadaren bun kar
ham ko dhanp deta hai
dekhta nahin mud kar
jald jald katta hai
ham jo dekhna chahen
vo nazar churata hai
ek phuul sa bachcha
be-khabar nidar sachcha
mere ghar ke kamron men
aa ke ghul machata hai
munjamid khamoshi ko
todti hansi us ki
is tarah bikharti hai
jaise thahre paani men
koi kankari phenke
aks jhuum jhuum utthe
mauj mauj lahrae
ek din thaka-manda
jaag jaag jaata hai
ek shaam be-maani
harf harf sajti hai
ek raat hairan si
aankh muund leti hai
