manzar ajab tha ashkon ko roka nahin gaya
pau phaTi ek taza kahani mili
hone wala tha ek hadsa rah gaya
din ko the hum ek tasawwur raat ko ek KHwab the
dhire dhire sham ka aaankhon mein har manzar bujha
khiDkiyon par malgaje sae se lahrane lage
apni pahchan koi zamane mein rakh
chhanw ki shakl dhup ki rangat badal gai
raat kafi lambi thi dur tak tha tanha main
wo alag chup hai KHud se sharma kar
phulon ko waise bhi murjhana hai murjhaenge
aandhiyon ka KHwab adhura rah gaya
ghar ki chizon se yun aashna kaun hai
koi bhi shaKHs na hangama-e-makan mein mila
yaad rakhte kis tarah qisse kahani log the
