Yaad

yaad ek be-rang be-mahak

murjhaya hua gulab

jis ke kanTon ki chubhan

baqi rahti hai sada

yaad-e-mazi ki banai hui

ek dhundli taswir

mel nahin khata jis se haal ka chehra

phir bhi lagi hai dil ki diwar par

yaad TuTa-phuTa ek aisa khilauna

jis se insan dil bahlana chahe

be-kar hone ke bawajud

use phenkna nahin chahe

yaad ek sarab

zist ke registan mein

jo aur bhi baDha de

thake haare musafir ki pyas
