Unki Taswir dekh Kar

aaj kya hai jo mila shokh nigahon ko qarar? kya hua husn ki maasum hayaon ka vaqar aaj kyuun tum

ek shab halki si jumbish mujhe mahsus hui main ye samjha mire shanon ko hilata hai koi aankh uthai to

andhi ki zad men sham-e-tamanna jalai jaae jis tarah bhi ho laaj junun ki bachai jaae be-ab o be-giyah hai

andhiyan aati thiin lekin kabhi aisa na hua khauf ke maare juda shakh se patta na hua ruuh ne pairahan-e-jism

aankh ki ye ek hasrat thi ki bas puuri hui ansuon men bhiig jaane ki havas puuri hui aa rahi

aahat jo sunai di hai hijr ki shab ki hai ye raae akeli meri nahin hai sab ki hai sunsan

asman kuchh bhi nahin ab tere karne ke liye main ne sab tayyariyan kar li hain marne ke liye is

aise hijr ke mausam kab kab aate hain tere alava yaad hamen sab aate hain jagti ankhon se bhi dekho

ajiib saneha mujh par guzar gaya yaaro main apne saae se kal raat dar gaya yaaro har ek naqsh tamanna

aks ko qaid ki parchhain ko zanjir karen saat-e-hijr tujhe kaise jahangir karen paanv ke niche koi shai hai zamin
