Subh Tak Jin Se Bahut Bezar Ho Jata Hun Main

Ghulam Husain Sajid

sub.h tak jin se bahut bezar ho jaata huun main

raat hote hi unhi galiyon men kho jaata huun main

ḳhvab men gum huun ki bahar ki faza achchhi nahin

aankh khulte hi kahin zanjir ho jaata huun main

khinch laati hai usi kuche men phir avargi

roz jis kuche se apne shahr ko jaata huun main

is andhere men charagh-e-ḳhvab ki ḳhvahish nahin

ye bhi kya kam hai ki thoḌi der so jaata huun main

raat laati hai kisi ke qurb ki ḳhvahish magar

sub.h hote hi kisi se duur ho jaata huun main

ji men aata hai ki duniya ko badalna chahiye

aur apne aap se mayus ho jaata huun main

baare bagh-e-sehn-e-duniya men bahut din rah liya

ḳhush raho ab is gali se dosto jaata huun main
