ab sipar DhunD koi apne liye — Ameer Qazalbash

yakum january hai nayaa saal hai
december mein puchhungaa kyaa haal hai

usi kaa shahr vahi muddai vahi munsif
hamein yaqin thaa hamaaraa qusur niklegaa

mire junun kaa natija zarur niklegaa
isi siyaah samundar se nuur niklegaa

log jis haal mein marne ki duaa karte hain
main ne us haal mein jiine ki qasam khaai hai

ik parinda abhi uDaan mein hai
tiir har shakhs ki kamaan mein hai

raavan raat jagaataa hai
koi raam-kahaani de

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

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

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

maarka garm to ho lene do khun-rezi kaa
pahle shamshir ke niche hamin jaa baiTheinge
