Shaista Mufti
lafz to banjh hain jazbon ki qadr kya janen
zindagi baar chuke hon to qahr kya janen
apne maasum gulabon se hasin bachchon ki
ek khoi hui muskan pe kuchh likhna hai
un ki be-jan nigahon pe mujhe kahna hai
lafz to banjh hain qirtas ke aine hain
lafz ziist ka unvan hain sarmaya hain
phir bhi jazbat ke akkas nahin ho sakte
khauf ke shahr men ehsas nahin ho sakte
nauha-e-gham bhi to ehsas ki jaulani hai
haae ai dil ki yahan khauf ki virani hai
muntazir maan jo khadi hai ki bahut der hui
mere ghar-bar ki raunaq nahin aaya ab tak
lafz men dhund rahi huun ki use kaise kahun
tera maasum shahidon men likha aaya
naam apna jo bahut pyaar se rakha tu ne
tuut kar duur kahin ja ke ki gira hai vo shajar
jis ko din-rat mohabbat se sanvara tu ne
lafz to banjh hain jazbat nahin kah sakte
vaqt ke vaar ko us paar nahin sah sakte
