yaad aayaa bhi to yuun ahd-e-vafaa — Qayyum Nazar

puchho to ek ek hai tanhaa sulag rahaa
dekho to shahr shahr hai mela lagaa huaa

teri nigah se tujh ko khabar hai ki kyaa huaa
dil zindagi se baar-e-digar aashnaa huaa

naqsh-e-kaf-e-paa ne gul khilaae
viraan kahaan ab ye raasta hai

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

mohabbat ab nahin hogi ye kuchh din baa'd mein hogi
guzar jaaeinge jab ye din ye un ki yaad mein hogi

muddaton baad jo is raah se guzraa huun 'qamar'
ahd-e-rafta ko bahut yaad kiyaa hai main ne

yaaro nae mausam ne ye ehsaan kiye hain
ab yaad mujhe dard puraane nahin aate

aa gai yaad shaam Dhalte hi
bujh gayaa dil charaagh jalte hi

mere siine se nikaalo miri buniyaad ki jaan
itni aasaani se viraan nahin hotaa main
