Hafeez Merathi

bazm-e-takallufat sajane men rah gaya
main zindagi ke naaz uThane men rah gaya

vo vaqt ka jahaz tha karta lihaz kya
main doston se haath milane men rah gaya

raat ko raat kah diya main ne
sunte hi baukhla ga.i duniya

ik ajnabi ke haath men de kar hamara haath
lo saath chhoDne laga akhir ye saal bhi

ye bhi to sochiye kabhi tanha.i men zara
duniya se ham ne kya liya duniya ko kya diya

bad-tar hai maut se bhi ghulami ki zindagi
mar ja.iyo magar ye gavara na kijiyo

haae vo naghma jis kaa mughanni
gaataa jaae rotaa jaae

shisha TuuTe ghul mach jaae
dil TuuTe aavaaz na aae

vo vaqt kaa jahaaz thaa kartaa lihaaz kyaa
main doston se haath milaane mein rah gayaa

raat ko raat kah diyaa main ne
sunte hi baukhlaa gai duniyaa

ik ajnabi ke haath mein de kar hamaaraa haath
lo saath chhoDne lagaa aakhir ye saal bhi

abhi se hosh uDe maslahat-paraston ke
abhi main bazm mein aayaa abhi kahaan bolaa
