mausam-e-vajd mein jaa kar main kahaan raqs karun — Nomaan Shauque

rok do ye raushni ki tez dhaar
meri miTTi mein gundhi hai raat bhi

vo saanp jis ne mujhe aaj tak Dasaa bhi nahin
tamaam zahr sukhan mein mire usi kaa hai

phir is mazaaq ko jamhuriyat kaa naam diyaa
hamein Daraane lage vo hamaari taaqat se

apni aahaT pe chaunktaa huun main
kis ki duniyaa mein aa gayaa huun main

vo tanz ko bhi husn-e-talab jaan khush hue
ulTaa paDhaa gayaa, miraa paighaam aur thaa

is baar intizaam to sardi kaa ho gayaa
kyaa haal peD kaTte hi basti kaa ho gayaa

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

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa

sabza o gul kahaan se aae hain
abr kyaa chiiz hai havaa kyaa hai

chaand ne taan li hai chaadar-e-abr
ab vo kapDe badal rahi hogi

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai

yuun barasti hain tasavvur mein puraani yaadein
jaise barsaat ki rim-jhim mein samaan hotaa hai
