Jamal-E-Yar Ko Taswir Karne Wale The

Poet

jamal-e-yar ko tasvir karne vaale the

ham ek ḳhvab ki ta.abir karne vaale the

shab-e-visal vo lamhe ganva diye ham ne

jo dard-e-hijr ko iksir karne vaale the

kahin se TuuT gaya silsila ḳhayalon ka

ka.i mahal abhi ta.amir karne vaale the

aur ek din mujhe us shahr se nikalna paḌa

jahan sabhi miri tauqir karne vaale the

hamari dar-badari par kise ta.ajjub hai

ham aise log hi taqsir karne vaale the

jo lamhe biit ga.e hain tiri mohabbat men

vo lauh-e-vaqt par tahrir karne vaale the

charagh le ke unhen DhunDhiye zamane men

jo log ishq ki tauqir karne vaale the

vahi charagh vafa ka bujha ga.e ‘asif’

jo shahr-e-ḳhvab ki ta.amir karne vaale the
