uThaa uThaa ke tire naaz ai gham-e-duniyaa — Tariq Naeem

vo aaina hai to hairat kisi jamaal ki ho
jo sang hai to kahin rahguzar mein rakkhaa jaae

— Tariq Naeem

ye viraani si yunhi to nahin rahti hai aankhon mein
mire dil hi se koi jaada-e-vahshat nikaltaa hai

— Tariq Naeem

tire khayaal ki lau hi safar mein kaam aai
mire charaag to lagtaa thaa roe ab roe

— Tariq Naeem

raat ro ro ke guzaari hai charaaghon ki tarah
tab kahin harf mein taasir nazar aai hai

— Tariq Naeem

khush-arzaani hui hai is qadar baazaar-e-hasti mein
giraan jis ko samajhtaa huun vo kam-qimat nikaltaa hai

— Tariq Naeem

abhi to mansab-e-hasti se main haTaa hi nahin
badal gae hain mire doston ke lahje bhi

— Tariq Naeem

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

— Mir Taqi Mir

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

— Khumar Barabankavi

ye aansu ponchh lijiye aur muskuraaiye
chaara nahin hai koi bhi rukhsat kiye baghair

— Nasim Zahid

main ne apni palkon par gham-kade sajaae hain
aarzu ke maatam mein sogvaar hasti hai

— Hanif Fauq

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

— Saifuddin Saif

intihaa ke qarib hai duniyaa
aadmi aakhiri sadi kaa huun

— Zubair Khayali
