kyaa taaat-e-mudaam kaa inaam hai yahi — Shahryar Pardaz

jab tak thaa apnaa hosh vo rahte the dur-dur
ab aa gae qarib to apnaa pataa nahin

har mauj-e-tund jaanti hai naa-khudaaiyaan
tufaan to mere saath hai gar naakhudaa nahin

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

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

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

kaho kyaa mehrbaan naa-mehrbaan taqdir hoti hai
kahaa maan ki duaaon mein baDi taasir hoti hai

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