Sard, Tarik Raat
is qadar tera o sard hargiz na tha dil ka mausam kabhi
ek pal mein KHuda jaane kya ho gaya
chand ki wadiyon mein utar aai shab!
main wo tanha subuk-pa musafir tha takmil ki justuju
khinch lai thi ek roz jis ko yahan
aarzu thi mujhe main zamin ke liye
meri tarrar purkar chashm-e-nihan
faslon sarhadon
waqt ke sab hisaron ke us par ki
shahr-e-imroz mein
an-ginat KHubsurat tasawir aawezan kar degi jab
dur ki har pur-asrar sarshaar aawaz mere lahu mein utar jaegi
mere daman ko phulon se bhar jaegi
sard se sard-tar
har ghaDi ho rahi hai rag-o-pai mein bahte anasir ki rau
shab guzar jaegi
chand ki munjamid wadiyon mein sulagti hui raushni
subh-dam ek pal mein umanD aaegi
mujh ko Dar hai magar
saat-e-nau ke hangam se peshtar
tera sard shab ka bhayanak amal
dil ke aafaq par
ho na jae kahin maut tak hukmaran
KHatm ho jae takmil ki dastan!!
