Tajdid

ab mere shane se lag kar kis liye roti ho tum

yaad hai tum ne kaha tha

jab nigahon mein chamak ho

lafz jazbon ke asar se kanpte hon aur tanaffus

is tarah uljhen ki jismon ki thakan KHushbu bane

to wo ghaDi ahd-e-wafa ki saat-e-nayab hai

wo jo chupke se bichhaD jate hain lamhe hain masafat

jin ki KHatir panw par pahre biThati hai

nigahen dhund ke pardon mein un ko DhunDti hain

aur samaat un ki miThi narm aahaT ke liye

daman bichhati hai

aur wo lamha bhi tum ko yaad hoga

jab hawaen sard thin aur sham ke maile kafan par hath rakh kar

tum ne lafzon aur talluq ke nae mani batae the, kaha tha

har ghaDi apni jagah par saat-e-nayab hai

hasil-e-umr-e-gurezan ek bhi lamha nahin

lafz dhoka hain ki un ka kaam iblagh-e-maani ke alawa kuchh nahin

waqt mani hai jo har lahza nae chehre badalta hai

jaane wala waqt saya hai

ki jab tak jism hai ye aadmi ke sath chalta hai

yaad misl-e-nutq pagal hai ki is ke lafz mani se tahi hain

ye jise tum gham aziyyat dard aansu

dukh waghaira kah rahe ho

ek lamhati tassur hai tumhaara wahm hai

tum ko mera mashwara hai, bhul jao tum se ab tak

jo bhi kuchh main ne kaha hai

ab mere shane se lag kar kis liye roti ho tum!
