Ada Jafarey
har ik daricha kiran kiran hai jahan se guzre jidhar gae hain
ham ik diya aarzu ka le kar ba-tarz-e-shams-o-qamar gae hain
jo meri palkon se tham na paae vo shabnamin mehrban ujale
tumhari ankhon men aa gae to tamam raste nikhar gae hain
vo duur kab tha harim-e-jan se ki lafz o maani ke naaz uthati
jo harf honton pe aa na paae vo ban ke khushbu bikhar gae hain
jo dard isa-nafas na hota to dil pe kya e’tibar aata
kuchh aur paiman kuchh aur paikan ki zakhm jitne the bhar gae hain
khazine jaan ke lutane vaale dilon men basne ki aas le kar
suna hai kuchh log aise guzre jo ghar se aae na ghar gae hain
jab ik nigah se kharash aai zamane bhar se gila hua hai
jo dil dukha hai to ranj saare na jaane kis kis ke sar gae hain
shikast-e-dil tak na baat pahunchi magar ‘ada’ kah sako to kahna
ki ab ke savan dhanak se anchal ke rang saare utar gae hain
