Ya Mah-O-Sal Ki Diwar Gira Di Jae

Basheer Ahmad Basheer

ya mah-o-sal ki divar gira di jaa.e

ya miri ḳhaak ḳhalaon men uḌa di jaa.e

kaise avaz harim-e-rag-e-jan tak pahunche

itni duuri se tujhe kaise sada di jaa.e

hai to phir kaun hai us oT men dekhun to sahi

darmiyan se ye miri zaat haTa di jaa.e

tere bas men hai to phir ya mujhe patthar kar de

ya miri ruuh ki ye pyaas bujha di jaa.e

chakhne paa.e na koi buund ye jalti miTTi

abr uTThe to hava tez chala di jaa.e

kuchh dinon ba.ad use dekha to dekha na gaya

jaise ik jalti hui jot bujha di jaa.e

ye lahakti hui shaḳhen ye mahakti belen

ye hara kunj yahin umr bata di jaa.e

aḳhir is jang men kuchh mera bhi hissa hai ‘bashir’

mere hisse ki mujhe kyuun na rida di jaa.e
