bajaa hai khvaab-navardi pa khvaab aaise hon — Siddiq Shahid

aisaa kuchh gardish-e-dauraan ne rakhaa hai masruf
maajare ho na sake ham se qalam-band apne

mujh se kahti hain vo udaas aanhkein
zindagi bhar ki sab thakan yaan hai

khvaab TuuTe paDe hain sab mere
main huun aur hairaton kaa saamaan hai

us ke jaane pe ye ehsaas huaa hai 'shaahid'
vo jazira thaa miraa dukh se bhare paani mein

nikal aae jo ham ghar se to sau raste nikal aae
abas thaa sochnaa ghar mein koi ghaibi ishaara ho

kuchh aaise daur bhi taaham giraft mein aae
ki ye zamin rahi baaqi na aasamaan hi rahaa

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

hamaaraa ishq ravaan hai rukaavaTon mein 'zafar'
ye khvaab hai kisi divaar se nahin ruktaa

khvaab Thahre the to aankhein bhigne se bach gaiin
varna chehre par to gham ki baarishon kaa aks hai

main ne dekhaa hai bahaaron mein chaman ko jalte
hai koi khvaab ki taabir bataane vaalaa

ye san kar meri nindein uD gai hain
koi meraa bhi sapnaa dekhtaa hai

par katar paai jab na khvaabon ke
band hi kar diin khiDkiyaan main ne
