khil uTThaa mere dil kaa chaman bhi pas-e-visaal — Haneef Najmi

mili na ham ko shahaadat to kyaa ye kyaa kam hai
ki saari 'umr rah-e-karbalaa pe chalte rahe

tire gham ne 'ataa ki hai 'ajab paakizgi mujh ko
main rotaa huun to aankhon se miri zamzam nikaltaa hai

hai dida-var to ek nazar mein parakh mujhe
laazim nahin kisi ko kai baar dekhnaa

bhalaa vo khaak samjheinge khudaa kyaa hai khudi kyaa hai
jo ab tak ye nahin samjhe maqaam-e-aadmi kyaa hai

bisaat-e-khaak par behad qad-aavar lag rahe the jo
bulandi par pahunch kar vo bahut chhoTe nazar aae

shaa'iri kyaa hai miri jaan tujhe maa'lum nahin
ek tohmat hai jo mujh par bhi lagaa di gai hai

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai

dil-e-haris hi apnaa na ho sakaa qaane
vagarna tere karam mein to kuchh kami na rahi

chaand ne taan li hai chaadar-e-abr
ab vo kapDe badal rahi hogi
