Jab Se Usne Shahr Ko ChhoDa Har Rasta Sunsan Hua
jab se us ne shahr ko chhoDa har rasta sunsan hua
apna kya hai sare shahr ka ek jaisa nuqsan hua
ye dil ye aaseb ki nagri maskan sochun wahmon ka
soch raha hun is nagri mein tu kab se mehman hua
sahra ki munh-zor hawaen auron se mansub huin
muft mein hum aawara Thahre muft mein ghar viran hua
mere haal pe hairat kaisi dard ke tanha mausam mein
patthar bhi ro paDte hain insan to phir insan hua
itni der mein ujDe dil par kitne mahshar bit gae
jitni der mein tujh ko pa kar khone ka imkan hua
kal tak jis ke gird tha raqsan ek amboh sitaron ka
aaj usi ko tanha pa kar main to bahut hairan hua
us ke zaKHm chhupa kar rakhiye KHud us shaKHs ki nazron se
us se kaisa shikwa kije wo to abhi nadan hua
jin ashkon ki phiki lau ko hum bekar samajhte the
un ashkon se kitna raushan ek tarik makan hua
yun bhi kam-amez tha 'mohsin' wo is shahr ke logon mein
lekin mere samne aa kar aur bhi kuchh anjaan hua
