ik saza aur asiiron ko suna di jaaye

ik saza aur asiiron ko suna di jaaye
yaani ab zurm-e-asiire ki sazaa di jaaye
usski khwahish hai ke ab log na royen na hansen
behisii waqt ki awaaz bana di jaaye
dasht-e-na_diida ki tahqiiq zaruuri hai magar
pahle jo aaglagi hai vo bujha di jaaye
sirf jalna hi nahin hamko bhadakna bhi toh hai
ishq ki aag ko laazim hai hawa di jaaye
sirf suraj ka nikalna hai agar subah toh phir
ik shab aur meri shab se mila di jaaye
aur ik taaza sitam usne kiya ijaad
ussko iss baar zara khul ke dua di jaaye

khuun se jab jala diya ek diya bujhaa hua

khuun se jab jala diya ek diya bujhaa hua
phir mujhe de diya gaya ek diya bujha hua
ek hi dastan-e-shab ek hi silsila toh hai
ek diya jala hua ek diya bujha hua
mehfil-e-rang-o-nuur ki phir mujhe yaad aa gayi
phir mujhe yaad aa gaya ek diya bujha hua
mujhko nishaat se fuzuun rasm-e-waffa aziiz hai
mera rafiiq-e-shab raha ek diya bujha hua
dard ki kainaat mein mujhse bhi raushni rahi
waise meri bisaat kya ek diya bujha hua
sab meri raushni-e-jaan harf-e-sukhan mein dhal gayi
aur main jaise reh gaya ek diya bujha hua

tumhen jafaa se na yun baaz aana chahiye tha

tumhen jafaa se na yun baaz aana chahiye tha
abhi kuch aur mera dil dukhana chahiye tha
taviil raat ke pehlu mein kab se soyi hai
naviid-e-subah tujhe jaag jaana chahiye tha
bahut qallaaq hua hairat gaziida tuufan ko
ke kaun duube kinhen duub jaana chahiye tha
bujhe chiraagon mein kitane hain jo jale hi nahin
savaad-e-vaqt i.nhe.n jagamagaanaa chaahiye thaa
ajab na tha ke qafas saath leke udd jaate
tadapna chahiye tha phadaphadhana chahiye tha
ye meri haar ke kaar-e-jaanan se haara magar
bichhadne wale tujhe yaad aana chahiye tha
tamaan umr ki aasurdgii-e-wasl ke baad
firaq aakhiri dhoka tha khana chahiye tha

yaad kya dast-e-hunar hai

yaad kya dast-e-hunar hai ki sanvarta gaya main
ussko socha toh usse yaad hi karta gaya main
issko tehziib-e-junoon kahiye ki mujhse pahle
jaise bikhare hain sabhi log bikharta gaya main
naqsh kitne thay ki madham huye silsilavaar
aur har naqsh ke pahlu se ubharta gaya main
ek tasviir banaai thi mukammal na hui
ek hi rang lahu rang tha bharta gaya main
harf-e-ikraar hi kehta raha bekhaufi se
yaani inkaar ke aashob se darta gaya main
apne andar ke talaatum ne rakkha hai aabad
khud hi ikraar kiya khud hi mukarta gaya main
har nafas badhta gaya usski tamnna ka kharosh
lamha lamha issi vehshat mein nikharta gaya main
zindgi kuu-e-malaamat hai koi kya thahre
apni hi vaza ka main hun so thaharta gaya main

ham se bahal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain

ham se bahal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
dard mein dhal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
saaya-e-wasl kab se hai aap ka muntazir magar
hijr mein dhal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
apne khilaaf faisla khud hi likha hai aap ne
haath bhi mal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
waqt ne aarzu ki lau der hui bujha bhi di
ab bhi pighal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
zahmat-e-zarbat-e-digar dost ko dijiye nahin
gir ke sambhal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
daayaraavaar hi toh hain ishq ke raaste tamaam
raah badal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
dasht ki saari raunaqen khair se ghar mein hain toh kyun
ghar se nikal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
apni talash ka safar khatm bhi kijiye kabhi
khvaab mein chal rahe hain aap aap bahut ajiib hain
