Bahut Suljhi Hui Baaton Ko Bhi Uljhae Rakhte Hain
bahut suljhi hui baaton ko bhi uljhae rakhte hain
jo hai kaam aaj ka kal tak use laTkae rakhte hain
taghaful sa rawa rakhte hain us ke samne kya kya
magar andar hi andar taba ko lalchae rakhte hain
hamari justuju se dur-tar hai manzil-e-mani
usi ko khoe rakhna hai jise hum pae rakhte hain
hamari aarzu apni samajh mein bhi nahin aati
pajama is tarah ka hai jise ulTae rakhte hain
hawaen bhul kar bhi is taraf ka ruKH nahin kartin
so ye shaKH-e-tamasha aap hi tharrae rakhte hain
isi ki raushni hai aur isi mein bhasm hona hai
ye shola sham ka jo raat bhar bhaDkae rakhte hain
hum itni raushni mein dekh bhi sakte nahin us ko
so apne aap hi is chand ko gahnae rakhte hain
nasheb-e-shairi mein hai hamari zat se raunaq
yahi patthar hai jis ko raat din luDhkae rakhte hain
ye ghar jis ka hai us ne wapas aana hai 'zafar' is mein
isi KHatir dar-o-diwar ko mahkae rakhte hain
