kirdaar rahnumaa kaa mujhe lag rahaa hai yuun — Nasim Zahid

ye aansu ponchh lijiye aur muskuraaiye
chaara nahin hai koi bhi rukhsat kiye baghair

uf rahbaron mein aisaa koi raahbar nahin
jis ki nigaah zarre mein khurshid DhunD le

main sabr kar rahaa huun to zaalim hai taa'na-zan
us ko khabar nahin ki khudaa mere saath hai

use daulat kamaane ki havas thi
nazar se ab nazaara ho gai hai

mujhe khabar hai use aisaa dard hai 'zaahid'
jise davaa nahin rishvat sukun deti hai

tujh ko hai naaqidin se nafrat
tere kamre mein aaina kyon hai

ret par ik nishaan hai shaayad
ye hamaaraa makaan hai shaayad

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

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

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

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

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae
