So Gaya oDh Ke Phir Shab Ki Qabaen Suraj

Shahbaz Khwaja

so gaya oḌh ke phir shab ki qaba.en suraj

jin ke daman pe chhiḌakta tha ziya.en suraj

aaj tak raakh sameTi nahin jaati apni

ham ne chaha tha hatheli pe saja.en suraj

aankh bujh jaa.e to ik jaise hain saare manzar

apni bina.i ke dam se hain ghaTa.en suraj

meri palkon pe larazte hue aansu moti

mere bujhte hue honTon pe dua.en suraj

zindagi jin ki ho sahra ki masafat ‘shahbaz’

aise logon ko kabhi raas na aa.en suraj
