Saba Mein Tha Na Dil-awezi-e-bahaar Mein Tha

saba mein tha na dil-awezi-e-bahaar mein tha

wo ek ishaara ki is chashm-e-waza-dar mein tha

guzar kuchh aur bhi aahista ai nigar-e-visal

ki ek umr se main tere intizar mein tha

hawa-e-dahr ki zad mein bhi aa ke bujh na saki

bala ka hausla ek sham-e-rahguzar mein tha

hum apni dhan mein chale aae jaanib-e-manzil

palaT ke dekha to ek karwan ghubar mein tha

mila to phul khil uTThe the shaKH-e-mizhgan par

juda hua to lahu chashm-e-ashk-bar mein tha

tujhe pukar ke chup ho gae hain diwane

bas ek nara-e-mastana iKHtiyar mein tha

ab ek kiran bhi nahin nim-wa dariche mein

KHusha wo din ki koi mere intizar mein tha

hawa-e-kam-nigahi ne bujha diya warna

mein wo charagh ki raushan harim-e-yar mein tha

teri nigah se ojhal sahi magar 'mohsin'

KHizan ka aks bhi aaina-e-bahaar mein tha
