Azaab yeh bhi kisi aur par nahi aaya

 

Azaab yeh bhi kisi aur par nahi aaya

K ek umr chale aur ghar nahi aaya

Us ek khaab ki hasrat meN jal bujhi aaNkheN

Wo ek khaab K ab tak nazer nahi aaya

KareN to kis se kareN naarasaiyoN ka gila

Safar tamaam huaa hum-safar nahi aaya

DiloN ki bat badan ki zabaaN se kah dete

Ye chaahte the magar dil idhar nahi aaya

Ajib hi tha mere daur E gumrahi ka rafiq

BichhaaR gaya to kabhi laut kar nahi aaya

Harim-e-lafz O ma’aani se nisbateN bhi rahiN

Magar saliqa-e-arz-e-hunar nahii aaya..
