Phir Jo Dekha Dur Tak Ek KHamushi Pai Gai

Razi Akhtar Shauq

phir jo dekha duur tak ik ḳhamushi paa.i ga.i

main to samjha tha ki ik meri hi goya.i ga.i

phir vahi badal ki ji uḌne ko chahe jin ke saath

phir vahi mausam ki jab zanjir pahna.i ga.i

phir vahi taa.ir vahi un ki ghazal-ḳhvani ke din

phir vahi rut jis men meri naghma-paira.i ga.i

kuchh to hai aḳhir jo saara shahr tariki men hai

ya mira suraj gaya ya meri bina.i ga.i

tham ga.e sab sang sab shor-e-malamat ruk gaya

main hi kya ji se gaya saari saf-ara.i ga.i

puchhti hai dastaken de de ke shorida hava

kis ka ḳhema tha ki jis men raushni paa.i ga.i
