Akhtar Shumar
saari ḳhilqat ek taraf thi aur divana ek taraf
tere liye main paanv pe apne jam ke khaḌa tha ek taraf
ek ik kar ke har manzil ki samt hi bhuul raha tha main
dhire dhire khinch raha tha tera rishta ek taraf
donon se main bach kar tere ḳhvab-o-ḳhayal se guzar gaya
dil ka sahra ek taraf tha aankh ka dariya ek taraf
aage aage bhaag raha huun ab vo mere pichhe hai
ik din teri chaah men ki thi main ne duniya ek taraf
dusri janib ik badal ne baḌh kar Dhanp liya tha chand
aur ankhon men Duub raha tha dil ka sitara ek taraf
vaqt-juari ki baiThak men jo aaya so haar gaya
‘aḳhtar’ ik din main bhi daman jhaaḌ ke nikla ek taraf
