teri aamad ki muntazir aankhein — Khaleel Tanveer

zamaana laakh sitaaron ko chhu ke aa jaae
abhi dilon ko magar haajat-e-rafu hai vahi

vo log apne aap mein kitne aziim the
jo apne dushmanon se bhi nafrat na kar sake

auron ki buraai ko na dekhun vo nazar de
haan apni buraai ko parakhne kaa hunar de

rusvaa hue zalil hue dar-ba-dar hue
haq baat lab pe aai to ham be-hunar hue

parind shaakh pe tanhaa udaas baiThaa hai
uDaan bhuul gayaa muddaton ki bandish mein

parind unchi uDaanon ki dhun mein rahtaa hai
magar zamin ki hadon mein basar bhi kartaa hai

pyaaso raho na dasht mein baarish ke muntazir
maaro zamin pe paanv ki paani nikal paDe

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

phir baiThe baiThe vaada-e-vasl us ne kar liyaa
phir uTh khaDaa huaa vahi rog intizaar kaa

kisi ke raste pe kaise nazrein jamaae rakkhun
abhi to karnaa mujhe hai khud intizaar meraa

vahaan hamaaraa koi muntazir nahin phir bhi
hamein na rok ki ghar jaanaa chaahte hain ham

mujh ko lagtaa hai ghaDi jis ne banaai hogi
intizaar us ko bhi shiddat se kisi kaa hogaa
