Bahut Tazkira Dastanon Mein Tha

bahut tazkira dastanon mein tha

to kya wo kahin aasmanon mein tha

mujhe dekh kar kal wo hansta raha

to wo bhi mere raaz-danon mein tha

wo har shab chabaata raha azhdahe

suna hai ki wo naujawanon mein tha

ajab chiz hai lams ki tazgi

nasha hi nasha do jahanon mein tha

use zindagi muKHtasar hi mili

magar KHanda-e-gul yaganon mein tha

wajud us ka dharti se chimTa raha

dhyan us ka unchi uDanon mein tha

parinde fazaon mein phir kho gae

dhuan hi dhuan aashiyanon mein tha
