bayaabaan duur tak main ne sajaayaa thaa — Ghulam Mohammad Qasir

baghair us ke ab aaraam bhi nahin aataa
vo shakhs jis kaa mujhe naam bhi nahin aataa

pyaar gayaa to kaise milte rang se rang aur khvaab se khvaab
ek mukammal ghar ke andar har tasvir adhuri thi

is tarah qaht-e-havaa ki zad mein hai meraa vajud
aandhiyaan pahchaan leti hain ba-aasaani mujhe

saayon ki zad mein aa gaiin saari ghulaam-gardishein
ab to kaniz ke liye raah-e-faraar bhi nahin

aayaa hai ik raah-numaa ke istiqbaal ko ik bachcha
peT hai khaali aankh mein hasrat haathon mein gul-dasta hai

pahle ik shakhs meri zaat banaa
aur phir puuri kaaenaat banaa
