Kabhi surKHi Se Likhta Hun Kabhi Kajal Se Likhta Hun

Sardar Saleem

kabhi surḳhi se likhta huun kabhi kajal se likhta huun

main dil ki baat jazbon ki hari konpal se likhta huun

main tera naam jab likhta huun apne dil ki taḳhti par

gulab-o-mushk se zamzam se ganga-jal se likhta huun

bujha kar zahr se rakkhe hain yaron ne qalam apne

magar main to vahi kevḌe se aur sandal se likhta huun

ḳhushi ki dastan banjar zaminon ki hatheli par

gulabi nuur barsate hue badal se likhta huun

‘salim’ aati hai jab sachcha.i likhne ki miri baari

fasil-e-shahr par jalti hui mash.al se likhta huun
