Paigham-E-Shabab Aa Raha Hai

Karamat Ali Karamat

paigham-e-shabab aa raha hai

shaḳhon pe gulab aa raha hai

jazbe ka parinda kyuun na taḌpe

rahon men sarab aa raha hai

hoshyar rahe ḳhirad ki mahfil

ik ḳhana-ḳharab aa raha hai

sarshar hain vaqt ke kaTore

jam-e-mai-e-nab aa raha hai

is tarah shafaq ko niind aa.i

ehsas ko ḳhvab aa raha hai

insan hai be-haya kuchh aisa

haivan ko hijab aa raha hai

taron ki nigah kyuun na chamke

chehre pe naqab aa raha hai

kora hai ye hashiya ḳhudi ka

hasti ka vo baab aa raha hai

ungli men ubhar rahi hai sozish

hathon men rubab aa raha hai

puchha jo saval asman se

dharti se javab aa raha hai

ghulta hai dimagh ai ‘karamat’

sar par jo azaab aa raha hai
