R P Shokh

kohkan-e-shab the rahā shaġhl sahar hone tak
sar paTaknā isī dīvār meñ dar hone tak
us kī aadat thī mire ḳhuun ko paanī karnā
rañg kyā kyā na uḌā aañkh ke tar hone tak
ab davā hai na duā hai na masīhā goyā
har ḳhudā.ī thī mirā ḳhūn-e-jigar hone tak
umr bhar phir se judā.ī ko mohabbat kahnā
dekhnā bhī hai zamāne kī nazar hone tak
apnī aaheñ hī subuk-gām na hone deñgī
pā-ba-zanjīr chalo ḳhatm-e-safar hone tak
shahr kā shahr huā ab to ta.āqub meñ mire
terā jaadū bhī thā mujh ḳhāk-basar hone tak
ye to maiñ thā ki tarāshā hai har ik zaḳhm se phuul
haath kaT jaate haiñ nāḳhun meñ hunar hone tak
