dushmani jam kar karo lekin ye gunjaaish rahe — 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

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

har raaste se manzil-e-hasti hai bahut duur
jaaegaa mire saath gham-e-yaar kahaan tak

pahle bhi jis pe mire sabr ki had khatm hui
tu ne kar di naa vahi baat dobaara mire dost

nai mohabbatein 'khaalid' puraani dostiyaan
azaab-e-kashmakash-e-be-amaan mein rahte hain

nahin maalum ai yaaro 'sabaa' ke dil mein kyaa aayaa
abhi jo baiThe baiThe vo yakaayak aah kar uTThaa

kaun rotaa hai kisi aur ki khaatir ai dost
sab ko apni hi kisi baat pe ronaa aayaa
