maujib-e-rang-e-chaman khun-e-shahidaan niklaa — Basir Sultan Kazmi

kaise yaad rahi tujh ko
meri ik chhoTi si bhuul

jab bhi mile ham un se unhon ne yahi kahaa
bas aaj aane vaale the ham aap ki taraf

dil lagaa lete hain ahl-e-dil vatan koi bhi ho
phuul ko khilne se matlab hai chaman koi bhi ho

kuchh to hassaas ham ziyaada hain
kuchh vo barham ziyaada hotaa hai

'baasir' tumhein yahaan kaa abhi tajraba nahin
bimaar ho? paDe raho, mar bhi gae to kyaa

gilaa bhi tujh se bahut hai magar mohabbat bhi
vo baat apni jagah hai ye baat apni jagah

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

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

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

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

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

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi
