dekh kar bhi na dekhnaa us kaa — Khurshid Rabbani

kisi ne meri taraf dekhnaa na thaa 'khurshid'
to be-sabab hi sanvaaraa gayaa thaa kyuun mujh ko

koi nahin jo miTaae miri siyah-bakhti
falak pe kitne sitaare hain jagmagaae hue

tiraa bakhshaa huaa ik zakhm pyaare
chali ThanDi havaa jalne lagaa hai

havaa-e-taaza kaa jhonkaa idhar se kyaa guzraa
gire paDe hue patton mein jaan aa gai hai

kis ki khaatir ujaaD raste par
phuul le kar shajar khaDaa huaa thaa

khvaabon ki main ne ek imaarat banaai aur
yaadon kaa us mein ek daricha banaa liyaa
