darinde saath rahnaa chaahte hain aadmi ke — Daniyal Tareer

khvaab jazira ban sakte the nahin bane
ham bhi qissa ban sakte the nahin bane

khvaab kaa kyaa hai raat ke naqsh-o-nigaar banaao
raat ke naqsh-o-nigaar banaao khvaab kaa kyaa hai

shelf pe ulTaa kar ke rakh do aur bisraa do
gul-daanon mein phuul sajaao khvaab kaa kyaa hai

ek be-chehra musaafir rang oDhe
dhund mein chalte hue dekhaa gayaa hai

dekhnaa ye hai ki jangal ko chalaane ke liye
mashvara richh se aur chiil se hogaa ki nahin

aakhir jism bhi divaaron ko saunp gae
darvaazon mein aankhein dharne vaale log

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

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

ai sanam tu vo kanhayyaa hai balaaein luun agar
baansuli ki tarah naalaan hon saraapaa ungliyaan

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

sayyaad teraa ghar mujhe jannat sahi magar
jannat se bhi sivaa mujhe raahat chaman mein thi

gul kiyaa jis ne vo thaa aur magar
shama ne shikva havaaon se kiyaa
