jaanib-e-raah-e-adam jo bhi sidhaare jaaein — Ahmad Waqas Mahrwi

qismat kaa miri haal bataaoge mujhe kyaa
mazdur ke haathon pe lakirein nahin hotin

vo jo anaa ki qaid mein ab tak hai mutmain
ab us ke lauTne kaa gumaan kis liye karein

mujhe paarsaai kaa daavaa nahin hai
farishta nahin main niraa aadmi huun

vaqt ke daaere mein rahte hue
thak chukaa huun hayaat sahte hue

mustaqbil ke khauf se sahmaa rahtaa huun
main ne buDhe peD ki aankhein dekhi hain

bun rahi hain jaal phir se makDiyaan
ek aavaara si makkhi ke liye

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

miri tamannaa hai ab ke tum phir milo to ji bhar ke muskuraaein
ki dekhnaa hai ye raushni kaa safar bahut der baa'd jaa kar

dimaagh un ke tajassus mein jism ghar mein rahaa
main apne ghar hi mein rahte hue safar mein rahaa

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

safar mein aise kai marhale bhi aate hain
har ek moD pe kuchh log chhuT jaate hain

yuun to maujud apne ghar mein hai
aadmi mustaqil safar mein hai
