aankhon se ik dariyaa niklaa — Aslam Rashid

kuchh sazaa aur baDh gai is par
zakhm khaae to muskuraae kyon

mujh se baahar nikal rahe the sab
main bhi hairaan saa nikal aayaa

din din bhar aaina dekhaa jaataa hai
tab jaa kar do chaar ishaare bante hain

aap kaa to shauq hai jalte gharon ko dekhnaa
aap aankhein nam kareinge aap rahne dijiye

qabr par phuul rakhne aayaa thaa
phir yahin ghar banaa liyaa main ne

hansi un ke labon tak aa gai hai
mukammal ho gayaa ronaa hamaaraa

mujid jo nuur kaa hai vo meraa charaagh hai
parvaana huun main anjuman-e-kaaenaat kaa

Dubne ki na tairne ki khabar
ishq-dariyaa mein bas utar dekhun

hue mar ke ham jo rusvaa hue kyuun na gharq-e-dariyaa
na kabhi janaaza uThtaa na kahin mazaar hotaa

us vaqt se bachaa mujhe ai rabb-e-kaainaat
hubb-e-vatan ho dil mein vatan kaaTne lage

dariyaa ki tarah ravaan huun lekin
ab tak bhi vahin huun main jahaan huun

aag se rishta hai meraa aur dariyaa bhi hai apnaa
aae din donon ke jhagDe mein ulajh kar rah gayaa huun
