raat kaa intizaar kaun kare — Bashir Badr

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

bhuul shaayad bahut baDi kar li
dil ne duniyaa se dosti kar li

ik shaam ke saae tale baiThe rahe vo der tak
aankhon se ki baatein bahut munh se kahaa kuchh bhi nahin

khudaa aise ehsaas kaa naam hai
rahe saamne aur dikhaai na de

hasin to aur hain lekin koi kahaan tujh saa
jo dil jalaae bahut phir bhi dilrubaa hi lage

khudaa ki itni baDi kaaenaat mein main ne
bas ek shakhs ko maangaa mujhe vahi na milaa

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

pyaaso raho na dasht mein baarish ke muntazir
maaro zamin pe paanv ki paani nikal paDe

takoge raah sahaaron ki tum miyaan kab tak
qadam uThaao ki taqdir intizaar mein hai

tujhe gale se lagaa ke bhi dekhaa jaaegaa
abhi to mujh ko tiraa intizaar karnaa hai

phunkaa hai kis ne gosh-e-mohabbat mein ai khudaa
afsun-e-intizaar tamannaa kahein jise

is havaa mein kar rahe hain ham tiraa hi intizaar
aa kahin jaldi se saaqi shisha o saaghar samet
