Kahan Ki Chaal Nikali Hai Ye Kahan Ki Tarah

Syed Masood Hasan Masood

kahan ki chaal nikali hai ye kahan ki tarah

zamin pe chalne lage log asman ki tarah

tumhin batao ki tasir is men kya hogi

jo tum sunoge mira haal dastan ki tarah

shab-e-visal bayan kya karen gham-e-hijran

vo dard-e-dil ko bhi sunte hain dastan ki tarah

dikha raha hai zamane ko inqalab ki shakl

badal raha hai koi rang asman ki tarah

har ek baat miri kaaT di dam-e-taqrir

chale na tegh bhi zalim tiri zaban ki tarah

khaḌe hain hashr men ḳhamosh ahl-e-hashr tamam

kalam munh se nikalta nahin zaban ki tarah

falak vo chaal bhi ab chal ki ho mujhe taskin

ujaaḌ ḳhana-e-sayyad ashiyan ki tarah

ḳhuda hi jaane ki rindon ne kya kiya ‘mas.ud’

janab-e-shaiḳh ne fariyad ki azaan ki tarah
