Raat Ajab Aaseb-zada Sa Mausam Tha

raat ajab aaseb-zada sa mausam tha

apna hona aur na hona mubham tha

ek gul-e-tanhai tha jo hamdam tha

KHar o ghubar ka sarmaya bhi kam kam tha

aankh se kaT kaT jate the sare manzar

raat se rang-e-dida-e-hairan barham tha

jis aalam ko hu ka aalam kahte hain

wo aalam tha aur wo aalam paiham tha

KHar KHamida-sar the bagule be-awaz

sahra mein bhi aaj kasi ka matam tha

raushniyan atraf mein 'zehra' raushan thin

aaine mein aks hi tera maddham tha
