mere hi khuun mein nahlaa ke 'sharar' — Sharar Fatehpuri

kuchh na hone kaa gumaan thaa phir bhi
kuchh to hone ko huaa thaa kyaa thaa

us sitam pesha kaa eajaaz-e-sitam hi hogaa
dast-e-qaatil ko agar dast-e-masihaa likkhun

maslahat thi koi vo chup the agar
bolne vaale to khul kar bolte

un se 'sharar' kuchh aise bichhDe
jivan kaa har sapnaa bikhraa

kyaa thi vo dair-o-haram ki duniyaa
jo bhi duniyaa kaa khudaa thaa kyaa thaa

be-hisi vo hai ki is daur mein jiine kaa mazaa
na gunaahon mein rahaa aur na savaabon mein rahaa
