Ajab Zamane Ki Gardishen Hain KHuda Hi Bas Yaad Aa Raha Hai

ajab zamane ki gardishen hain KHuda hi bas yaad aa raha hai

nazar na jis se milate the hum wahi ab aankhen dikha raha hai

baDhi hai aapas mein bad-gumani maza mohabbat ka aa raha hai

hum us ke dil ko TaTolte hain to hum ko wo aazma raha hai

ghar apna karti hai na-umidi hamare dil mein ghazab hai dekhiyo

ye wo makan hai ki jis mein barson umidon ka jamghaTa raha hai

badal gaya hai mizaj un ka main apne is jazb-e-dil ke sadqe

wahi shikayat hai ab udhar se idhar jo pahle gila raha hai

kisi ki jab aas TuT jae to KHak wo aasra lagae

shikasta dil kar ke mujh ko zalim nigah ab kya mila raha hai

yahan to tark-e-sharab se KHud dil-o-jigar phunk rahe hain waiz

suna ke dozaKH ka zikr-e-nahaq jale ko tu bhi jala raha hai

karun na kyun husn ka nazara sunun na kyun ishq ka fasana

isi ka to mashghala tha barson isi ka to walwala raha hai

umid jab had se baDh gai ho to hasil us ka hai na-umidi

bhala na kyun yas dafatan ho ki muddaton aasra raha hai

mujhe tawaqqoa ho kya KHabar ki zaban hai qasid ki hath bhar ki

lagi hawa tak nahin udhar ki abhi se baaten bana raha hai

zara yahan jis ne sar uThaya ki us ne nicha use dikhaya

koi batae to ye zamana kasi ka bhi aashna raha hai

'hafiz' apna kamal tha ye ki jis ke hathon zawal dekha

falak ne jitna hamein baDhaya ziyaada us se ghaTa raha hai
