Arzoo Lakhnavi
hain des-bides ek guzar aur basar men
be-as ko kab chain mila hai kisi ghar men
chup main ne laga.i to hua us ka bhi charcha
jo bhed na khulta ho vo khul jaata hai Dar men
suraj ka ghamanD aur nahin taare ke barabar
aisi hi to baten hain is andher-nagar men
vo Tal nahin sakti jo pahunchne ki ghaḌi hai
chalta rahe galiyon men ki baiTha rahe ghar men
huuk uTThi idhar ji men udhar kuuk uThi koyal
puchhe koi to kaun idhar men na udhar men
ai ‘arzu’ ankhon hi men kaT jaate hain din-rat
koi bhi ghaḌi chain ki hai aTh-pahr men
