teri surat par gumaan-e-dasht-o-sahraa haae haae — Jaleel Hashmi

siikh liyaa jiinaa main ne
itnaa zahr piyaa main ne

divaaron ki basti mein
darvaaza likkhaa main ne

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

ai shahr-e-sitam-zaad tiri umr baDi ho
kuchh aur bataa naql-e-makaani ke alaava

zulf-e-barham ki jab se shanaasaa hui
zindagi kaa chalan mujrimaana huaa

chhin liin khushiyaan miri aankhon se meri niind bhi
zindagi tu ne mujhe ab tak diyaa kuchh bhi nahin
