Ek Paikar Yun Chamak UTTha Hai Mere Dhyan Mein

ek paikar yun chamak uTTha hai mere dhyan mein

koi jugnu uD raha ho jis tarah tufan mein

har bagula bastiyon ki samt lahrane laga

aashna chehre bhi ab aate nahin pahchan mein

kya qayamat hai ki koi puchhne wala nahin

zindagi tanha khaDi hai hashr ke maidan mein

waqt paDte hi hue ru-posh sab halqa-ba-gosh

ek yahi KHubi to hai is daur ke insan mein

aaine yaadon ke main ne toD Dale the magar

chand chehre phir ubhar aae mere wijdan mein

log meri maut ke KHwahan hain 'afzal' kis liye

chand ghazlon ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin saman mein
