Is Shahr Ke Log Ajib Se Hain Ab Sab Hi Tumhaare Asir Hue

Anees Ansari

is shahr ke log ajiib se hain ab sab hi tumhare asiir hue

jab jaan pe baraste the patthar us vaqt hamin dil-gir hue

kuchh log tumhari ankhon se karte hain talab hiire moti

ham sahra sahra Duub ga.e ik aan men jogi faqir hue

tum dard ki lazzat kya jaano kab tum ne chakhe hain zahr-e-subu

ham apne vajud ke shahid hain sangsar hue shamshir hue

ye pahron pahron soch-nagar raton raton be-ḳhvab lahar

phir kaise kaTega dhup-safar jab piir luTi jagir hue

ik umr guzari hai yuun hi sayon ke ta.aqub men ham ne

Tuk baiTh ga.e phir chal nikle hans bol liye dil-gir hue

kuchh shahr tumhara tang bhi tha kuchh tum bhi the kamzor zara

patthar ki nigahon ke Dar se tum apne hi ghar men asiir hue
