yaad aai kis ki aankh ki rind uTh khaDe hue — Jaleel Manikpuri

tazkira soz-e-mohabbat kaa kiyaa thaa ik baar
taa-dam-e-marg zabaan se miri chhaale na gae

vo haath un ke chumti hai main huun paaemaal
ye hain mire nasib vo qismat hinaa ki hai

pesh-khema hain qayaamat kaa yahi do fitne
baaDh par qad hai taraqqi pe hai jauban teraa

be-hijaabi jo sahi hai tiri shokh aankhon ki
rasm parde ki uThegi isi ghar se pahle

sitam hai sitam kaaba-e-dil kaa Dhaanaa
ye kyaa kar rahe ho ye kyaa ho rahaa hai

sote mein vo jo mujh se ham-aaghosh ho gae
jitne gile the khvaab-e-faraamosh ho gae

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

tum se mile to khud se ziyaada
tum ko akelaa paayaa ham ne

koi shikva na gham na koi yaad
baiThe baiThe bas aankh bhar aai

is se baDh kar tiri yaadon ki karun kyaa taazim
teri yaadon mein zamaane ko bhulaa rakkhaa hai

hairat hai tum ko dekh ke masjid mein ai 'khumaar'
kyaa baat ho gai jo khudaa yaad aa gayaa

honTon pe tabassum kaa labaada to nahin thaa
ai dil sam-e-andoh ziyaada to nahin thaa
