Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi
raat ki udti hui raakh se bojhal hai nasim
yuun asa tek ke chalti hai ki rahm aata hai
saans leti hai darakhton ka sahara le kar
aur jab us ke libade se lipat kar koi
patta girta hai to patthar sa ludhak jaata hai
shakhen hathon men liye kitni adhuri kaliyan
mangti hain faqat ik narm si jumbish ki dua
aisa chup-chap hai sanvlai hui subh men shahr
jaise mabad kisi murjhae hue mazhab ka
sar pe apni hi shikaston ko uthae hue log
ik dorahe pe girohon men khade hain tanha
yak-ba-yak fasle tanbe ki tarah bajne lage
qadam uthte hain to zarre bhi sada dene lage
dard ke pairhan-e-chak se jhanko to zara
murda suraj pe latakte hue maile badal
kisi tufan ki aamad ka pata dete hain!
