Ek Sharminda Nazm

kin harfon ki tafhim karun

kin rangon ki tajsim karun

kis rah chalun aur chalta jaun khula nahin

abhi darwaza to khula nahin

kis phul ki madh likhun

ai harf-e-sahar-asar ai yaum-e-azadi

main ne to nahin dekha

tere lams se kaun sa sang gulab hua aaina aab hua

is bagh mein kaun si musht-e-KHak khuli KHushbu aazad hui

be-bas aur sat bahaaren aur KHizaen

ek hi mausam ki ajrak main dekh chuka hun

lekin main ne wo din kis din dekha hai

jab aankhen rauzan chhoD ke phulon ki kyari mein bas jati hain koyal gati hai

koyal gati hai

jhule paDte hain baghon mein

husn se reza reza wasl Tapakta hai

main ne kab dekha hai

abhi darwaza to khula nahin

abhi darwaza to khula nahin

darwaza khule to main bhi qalam mein taza hawa ki siyahi bhar lun aur ek KHat likhun

main tere pate par KHat likhun

tu apna taaruf bhej main tujh par ek pyari si nazm likhun

ki suna hai tu bhi pyara sa ek lams hai

ek lamha hai

lekin main ne tujhe kab chakha sungha dekha suna mahsus kiya hai

jab se main jaga hun

tu to jantriyon mein morcha-band hai soya hua hai

jag ai nadida saat

ai sadiyon ka andoh liye lamhe ab mujh par bhi muTThi bhar sahar chhiDak

bas ek jhalak dikhla

teri ek jhalak

mere panch hawas ki baKHiya baKHiya udhDi jholi si bhi degi bhar bhi degi

phir main tujh par ek la-fani nazm likhunga

tujhe sunane aaunga
