Afroz Rizvi
jitne hain rang-e-chaman rang-e-hina ho jaenge
tum hamen dekhoge aur ham aaina ho jaenge
khaak odhenge phirenge ku-ba-ku aur us ke baad
ham tiri furqat men jaane kya se kya ho jaenge
naqsh ban kar paniyon men dubte hain jis tarah
dekhna is tarah ik din ham fana ho jaenge
maut ki andhi chalegi aur phir mere charagh
dekhte hi dekhte nazr-e-hava ho jaenge
apni khushbuen utarne do hamare jism men
phuul ki surat khilenge ham saba ho jaenge
vasl ki shab jagmagaegi dil aflak par
chand aur suraj tumhare naqsh-e-pa ho jaenge
dekh lena tuut kar shakh-e-shajar se ek din
khushk patte andhiyon ke ham-nava ho jaenge
ek din ‘afroz’ jitne bhi hain ahang-e-hayat
gumbad-e-jan men vo sab hi be-sada ho jaenge
