in samajh-daaron mein koi to miri baat sune — Meraj Naqvi

ham tire hijr ki sabhi raatein
pi ke cigarette guzaar dete hain

khud-kushi bhi haraam hai yaa-rab
dil ki vahshat kaa kyaa 'ilaaj karun

niind mein bhi hai sharm chehre par
khvaab mein mujh se mil rahi ho kyaa

tum mire khvaab mein nahin aanaa
TuuT jaate hain mere khvaab sabhi

pahle hansne to do musibat par
phir ye socheinge kyaa kiyaa jaae

jaane kyon hijr ke sabhi mausam
tere lahje mein baat karte hain

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

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

gul kiyaa jis ne vo thaa aur magar
shama ne shikva havaaon se kiyaa

khafaa dekhaa hai us ko khvaab mein dil sakht muztar hai
khilaa de dekhiye kyaa kyaa gul-e-taabir-e-khvaab apnaa

vo koThe kaa makaan vo kaali aandhi vo sanam gul-ru
ajab rangon ki Thahri aa ke heraa-pher aandhi mein
