aankh binaai ganvaa baiThi to — Hammad Niyazi

dikhaai dene lagi thi khushbu
main phuul aankhon pe mal rahaa thaa

kachchi qabron par saji khushbu ki bikhri laash par
khaamushi ne ik nae andaaz mein taqrir ki

vo peD jis ki chhaanv mein kaTi thi umr gaanv mein
main chuum chuum thak gayaa magar ye dil bharaa nahin

subh savere nange paanv ghaas pe chalnaa aisaa hai
jaise baap kaa pahlaa bosa qurbat jaise maaon ki

aakhiri baar main kab us se milaa yaad nahin
bas yahi yaad hai ik shaam bahut bhaari thi

bas ek lamha tire vasl kaa mayassar ho
aur us visaal ke lamhe ko daaimi kiyaa jaae
