Muntazir Rahna Bhi Kya Chahat Ka KHamyaza Nahin

Muzaffar Warsi

muntazir rahna bhi kya chahat ka ḳhamyaza nahin

kaan dastak par lage hain ghar ka darvaza nahin

haath par tu ne muqaddar ki lakiren khinch diin

kya tujhe bhi mere mustaqbil ka andaza nahin

dekhna chahun to ḳhushbu, chhuna chahun to hava

mere daman tak jo aa.e tu vo shiraza nahin

dafan huun ehsas ki sadiyon purani qabr men

zindagi ik zaḳhm hai aur zaḳhm bhi taaza nahin

tum hi ai ḳhamoshiyo patthar uTha lo haath men

koi naghma koi naala koi avaza nahin

husn pahchanegi mera dekhne vaali nazar

ḳhuun to hai ankhon men chehre par agar ghaza nahin

mangte hain kyuun ‘muzaffar’ log barish ki dua

tishnagi-e-ruh ka jismon ko andaza nahin
