suKHan Mein Rang Tumhaare KHayal Hi Ke to Hain

Irfan Siddiqi

suḳhan men rang tumhare ḳhayal hi ke to hain

ye sab karishme hava-e-visal hi ke to hain

kaha tha tum ne ki laata hai kaun ishq ki taab

so ham javab tumhare saval hi ke to hain

zara si baat hai dil men agar bayan ho jaa.e

tamam mas.ale iz.har-e-hal hi ke to hain

yahan bhi us ke siva aur kya nasib hamen

ḳhutan men rah ke bhi chashm-e-ghazal hi ke to hain

jasarat-e-suḳhan-e-sha.iran se Darna kiya

gharib mashghala-e-qil-o-qal hi ke to hain

hava ki zad pe hamara safar hai kitni der

charagh ham kisi sham-e-zaval hi ke to hain
