dimaagh aur hi paati hain in hasinon mein — Goya Faqir Mohammad

bijli chamki to abr royaa
yaad aa gai kyaa hansi kisi ki

har gaam pe hi saae se ik misraa-e-mauzun
gar chand qadam chaliye to kyaa khuub ghazal ho

aasmaan kahte hain jis ko vo zamin-e-sher hai
maah-e-nau misraa hai vasf-e-abru-e-khamdaar mein

vo tifl-e-nusairi aae shaayad
qasmein duun murtazaa-ali ki

khaar chubh kar jo TuTtaa hai kabhi
aabla phuuT phuuT rotaa hai

saare quraan se us pari-ru ko
yaad ik lafz-e-lan-taraani hai

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

maarka garm to ho lene do khun-rezi kaa
pahle shamshir ke niche hamin jaa baiTheinge
