Guman Yahi Hai Ki dil Khud Udhar Ko Jata Hai

Ahmad Faraz

guman yahi hai ki dil khud udhar ko jaata hai

so shak ka faeda us ki nazar ko jaata hai

haden vafa ki bhi akhir havas se milti hain

ye rasta bhi idhar se udhar ko jaata hai

ye dil ka dard to umron ka rog hai pyare

so jaae bhi to pahar do pahar ko jaata hai

ye haal hai ki kai raste hain pesh-e-nazar

magar khayal tiri rah-guzar ko jaata hai

tu ‘anvari’ hai na ‘ghalib’ to phir ye kyuun hai ‘faraz’

har ek sail-e-bala tere ghar ko jaata hai
