yaad aaiin us ko dekh ke apni musibatein — Hafeez Jaunpuri

is ko samjho na khatt-e-nafs 'hafiz'
aur hi kuchh hai shaaeri se gharaz

jo divaanon ne paimaaish ki hai maidaan-e-qayaamat ki
faqat do gaz zamin Thahri vo mere dasht-e-vahshat ki

o aankh badal ke jaane vaale
kuchh dhyaan kisi ki aajizi kaa

pari thi koi chhalaavaa thi yaa javaani thi
kahaan ye ho gai champat jhalak dikhaa ke mujhe

kabhi masjid mein jo vaaiz kaa bayaan suntaa huun
yaad aati hai mujhe pir-e-kharaabaat ki baat

bahut duur to kuchh nahin ghar miraa
chale aao ik din Tahalte hue

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

mujh se ziyaada kaun tamaasha dekh sakegaa
gaandhi-ji ke tinon bandar mere andar

ham ne duniyaa se suluk aisaa kiyaa hai 'raanaa'
ham na honge to bahut yaad karegi duniyaa

rakhnaa hamesha yaad ye meraa kahaa huaa
aataa nahin hai luuT ke paani bahaa huaa

uThaa laayaa huun saare khvaab apne
tiri yaadon ke bosida makaan se
