use tum chaand se tashbih denaa — Vishal Khullar

vo jism ruuh khalaa aasmaan hai kyaa hai
ki rang koi ho us se judaa nahin miltaa

mere dukh ki davaa bhi rakhtaa hai
khud ko mujh se judaa bhi rakhtaa hai

dil jo ab shor kartaa rahtaa hai
kis qadar be-zabaan thaa pahle

main insaan thaa khudaa hone se pahle
anal-haq ki anaa hone se pahle

divaar-o-dar saa chaahiye divaar-o-dar mujhe
divaangi mein yaad nahin apnaa ghar mujhe

usi ke sher sabhi aur usi ke afsaane
usi ki pyaas kaa baadal ghaTaa mein aayaa hai

shor din ko nahin sone detaa
shab ko sannaaTaa jagaa detaa hai

aisi duniyaa mein kab tak guzaaraa karein tum hi kah do ki kaise gavaaraa karein
raat mujh se miri bebasi ne kahaa bebasi ke liye ek taaza ghazal

har ek shaakh pe viraaniyaan musallat hain
badan-darakht bhi goyaa hai aashiyaan-e-shab

rok do ye raushni ki tez dhaar
meri miTTi mein gundhi hai raat bhi

rang ho raushni ho yaa khushbu
sab mein partav usi hasin ke hain

baarish ke baa'd raat saDak aaina si thi
ik paanv paaniyon pe paDaa chaand hil gayaa
