Sahme Sahme Chalte Phirte Lashe Jaise Log

Mohsin Bhopali

sahme sahme chalte phirte lashe jaise log

vaqt se pahle mar jaate hain kitne aise log

sar par chaḌh kar bol rahe hain paude jaise log

peḌ bane ḳhamosh khaḌe hain kaise kaise log

chaḌhta suraj dekh ke ḳhush hain kaun nahin samjha.e

tapti dhuup men kumhla.enge ghunche jaise log

shab ke raj-dularo socho apna bhi anjam

shab ka kya hai kaaT hi denge jaise-taise log

gham ka darman sochne baiThe the jo raat ga.e

fikr-e-farda le kar uTThe bazm-e-mai se log

‘mohsin’ aur bhi nikhrega in sheron ka mafhum

apne aap ko pahchanenge jaise jaise log
