Hijr

tu pas tha ji ko chain kuchh tha

tera jaana ki aafat aai

nazron se chhupa jo tera chehra

mere sar par qayamat aai

baqi thoDa sa din tha lekin

meri aankhon mein tha andhera

kyunkar ho sabr mujh se mumkin

dil ko har-dam hai dhyan tera

ai zulm ke aur sitam ke bani

ai shoKH jafa-shiar ayyar

mujh ko dubhar hai zindagani

meri aankhon mein hai jahan tar

ai barq-misal ai trahdar

ai mah-jabin ghazal-sirat

mujh par tar-e-nafas hai ek bar

mujh se koson pare hai rahat

ghar-bhar sota hai ek betab

aahen bhar kar taDap raha hai

bhule bhi aankh ko nahin KHwab

zulmat-e-shab ki ajab bala hai

hargiz hargiz mujhe mayassar

aai koi ghaDi na rahat

kaisa kaisa raha hun muztar

kitni kitni uThai zahmat

dil ko hai saKHt be-qarari

jine ke paD gae hain lale

dil ki haalat na ye miTegi

jab tak tu hi na phir sambhaale

mujh ko tanhai go satae

tujh ko aish-o-tarab ho maimun

mujh par aafat hazar aae

tujh se KHush-talai ho maqrun

tujh se chhuTna hai saKHt mushkil

jab tak hai hafize mein qudrat

tera tera rahega ye dil

jab tak na milae tujh se qismat
