Sar-E-Mahfil Dil-E-Tanha Pe Hansi Aati Hai

Saeed Shahidi

sar-e-mahfil dil-e-tanha pe hansi aati hai

mujh ko is ghuncha-e-sahra pe hansi aati hai

haan tira va.ada-e-farda tha kabhi vaj.h-e-hayat

ab isi va.ada-e-farda pe hansi aati hai

shab-e-mah mausam-e-gul aur javani tauba

aisi be-vaqt ki tauba pe hansi aati hai

kabhi TuuTi hui kashti pe taras aata hai

kabhi chaḌhte hue dariya pe hansi aati hai

main javan huun miri fitrat ka taqaza hai kuchh aur

mujh ko andesha-e-farda pe hansi aati hai

chaar tinkon ka jalana bhi baḌi baat thi kuchh

barq ki zahmat-e-be-ja pe hansi aati hai

chahte hain ki unhen dil se bhula duun main ‘sa.id’

aisi ma.asum tamanna pe hansi aati hai
