hijr kii shab hai aur ujaalaa hai


hijr kii shab hai aur ujaalaa hai
kyaa tasavvur bhii luTane vaalaa hai

Gam to hai ain zindagii lekin
Gam_gusaaro.n ne maar Daalaa hai

ishq majabuur-o-naamuraad sahii
phir bhii zaalim kaa bol_baalaa hai

dekh kar barq kii pareshaanii
aashiyaa.n Khud hii phuu.Nk Daalaa hai

kitane ashko.n ko kitanii aaho.n ko
ik tabassum me.n us ne Dhaalaa hai

terii baato.n ko mai.n ne ai vaa_iz
ahataraamaa ha.Nsii me.n Taalaa hai

maut aaye to din phire shaayad
zindagii ne to maar Daalaa hai

sher nazme.n shaguftagii mastii
Gam kaa jo ruup hai niraalaa hai

laGziishe.n muskuraa_ii hai.n kyaa kyaa
hosh ne jab mujhe sambhaalaa hai

dam andhere me.n ghuT rahaa hai Khumaar
aur chaaro.n taraf ujaalaa hai
