aap sharminda jafaaon pe na hon — Habeeb Ahmad Siddiqui

hai naved-e-bahaar har lab par
kam-nasibon ko e'tibaar nahin

gulon se itni bhi vaabastagi nahin achchhi
rahe khayaal ki ahd-e-khizaan bhi aataa hai

ek kaaba ke sanam toDe to kyaa
nasl-o-millat ke sanam-khaane bahut

tag-o-taaz-e-paiham hai miraas-e-aadam
mire muntazir kuchh jahaan aur bhi hain

faiz-e-ayyaam-e-bahaar ahl-e-qafas kyaa jaanein
chand tinke the nasheman ke jo ham tak pahunche

raanaai-e-bahaar pe the sab farefta
afsos koi mahram-e-raaz-e-khizaan na thaa
