mauj-e-gul, mauj-e-sabaa, mauj-e-sahar lagatii hai
Jan Nissar Akhtar
mauj-e-gul, mauj-e-sabaa, mauj-e-sahar lagatii hai
sar se paa tak vo samaa.N hai ki nazar lagatii hai
hamane har gaam sajdo.n e jalaaye hai.n chiraaG
ab terii raahaguzar raahaguzar lagatii hai
lamhe lamhe basii hai terii yaado.n kii mahak
aaj kii raat to Khushbuu kaa safar lagatii hai
jal gayaa apanaa nasheman to koii baat nahii.n
dekhanaa ye hai ki ab aag kidhar lagatii hai
saarii duniyaa me.n Gariibo.n kaa lahuu bahataa hai
har zamii.n mujhako mere Khuun se tar lagatii hai
vaaqyaa shahar me.n kal to koii aisaa na huaa
ye to "Akhtar" ke daftar kii Khabar lagatii hai
