Shumama Ufuq
makin shor machate hain to machane de
kivaḌ khol de taaza hava ko aane de
bhaTak na jaa.e kahin phir se qafila tera
charagh thaam mujhe rasta batane de
alaav bujhne lagega to log uTThenge
zara zara si kahani se aag aane de
tamash-bin tamashe ka ek hissa hain
agar ye log uThate hain haz uThane de
tamam umr ka rona qubul mere vali
bas ek baar mujhe khul ke muskurane de
ham ek saath mohabbat ki jang haare hain
hamen shikast bhi ik saath hi manane de
tu baar baar mujhe dekh mat ‘shumama-ufuq’
jo baat main ne chhupa.i hai vo chhupane de
