baiThe baiThe isi ghubaar ke saath — Zulfiqar Aadil

yuun uThe ik din ki logon ko huaa
abr kaa dhokaa hamaari khaak par

vaapas palaT rahe hain azal ki talaash mein
mansukh aap apnaa likhaa kar rahe hain ham

ye kis ne haat peshaani pe rakkhaa
hamaari niind puuri ho gai hai

ravaani mein nazar aataa hai jo bhi
use taslim kar lete hain paani

baiThe baiThe pheink diyaa hai aatish-daan mein kyaa kyaa kuchh
mausam itnaa sard nahin thaa jitni aag jalaa li hai

dasht-o-dariyaa ki ibtidaa se hain
ham vahi tiin din ke pyaase hain
