Guzarne Ko to Shaariq Apni Har Aalam Mein Guzri Hai

Poet

guzarne ko to ‘shariq’ apni har aalam men guzri hai

vahi hai zindagi lekin jo un ke gham men guzri hai

vo uftad-e-ḳhizan ho ya baharon ki junun-ḳhezi

qayamat hai pe sach puchho to har mausam men guzri hai

vo koi aur honge ḳhvahish-e-amn-o-sukun vaale

yahan to umr saari kavish-e-paiham men guzri hai

na puchh ai ham-nashin kya sanahe guzre mohabbat men

use kuchh dil samajhta hai ki jis aalam men guzri hai

mujhe jaise do-alam mil ga.e jab mil ga.i ‘shariq’

vo ik saa.at mohabbat ki jo us ke gham men guzri hai
