apni surat bigaD gai lekin — Zuhoor Nazar

baad-e-tark-e-ulfat bhi yuun to ham jiye lekin
vaqt be-tarah biitaa umr be-sabab guzri

barson se khaDaa huun haath uThaae
taasir-e-duaa kaa muntazir huun

ghar se us kaa bhi nikalnaa ho gayaa aakhir muhaal
meri rusvaai se shohrat ku-ba-ku us ki bhi thi

vo jise saare zamaane ne kahaa meraa raqib
main ne us ko ham-safar jaanaa ki tu us ki bhi thi

na so sakaa huun na shab jaag kar gizaari hai
ajiib din hain sukun hai na be-qaraari hai

sunte hain chamaktaa hai vo chaand ab bhi sar-e-baam
hasrat hai ki bas ek nazar dekh lein ham bhi
