dil ujDi hui ek saraae ki tarah hai — Bashir Badr

na tum hosh mein ho na ham hosh mein hain
chalo mai-kade mein vahin baat hogi

sar jhukaaoge to patthar devtaa ho jaaegaa
itnaa mat chaaho use vo bevafaa ho jaaegaa

raat kaa intizaar kaun kare
aaj kal din mein kyaa nahin hotaa

ujaale apni yaadon ke hamaare saath rahne do
na jaane kis gali mein zindagi ki shaam ho jaae

jis din se chalaa huun miri manzil pe nazar hai
aankhon ne kabhi miil kaa patthar nahin dekhaa

koi phuul saa haath kaandhe pe thaa
mire paanv shoalon pe jalte rahe

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

puchh kar kaun dil dukhaataa hai
haadse kab bataa ke hote hain

baadalon ne aaj barsaayaa lahu
amn kaa har faakhta rone lagaa

uDti hai khaak dil ke darichon ke aas-paas
shaayad makin koi nahin is makaan mein

ik shakl hamein phir bhaai hai ik surat dil mein samaai hai
ham aaj bahut sarshaar sahi par aglaa moD judaai hai
