ham charaaghon ki madad karte rahe — Manish Shukla

aakhir ham ko be-zaari tak le aai
har shai par girvida rahne ki aadat

chand lakirein to is darja gahri thiin
dekhne vaalaa Duub gayaa tasviron mein

kitni ujlat mein miTaa Daalaa gayaa
aag mein sab kuchh jalaa Daalaa gayaa

baat karne kaa hasin taur-tariqa sikhaa
ham ne urdu ke bahaane se saliqa sikhaa

miri aavaargi hi mere hone ki alaamat hai
mujhe phir is safar ke baa'd bhi koi safar denaa

ab apnaa chehra begaana lagtaa hai
ham ko thi sanjida rahne ki aadat
