Munjamid HonTon Pe Hai YaKH Ki Tarah Harf-e-junun

munjamid honTon pe hai yaKH ki tarah harf-e-junun

sar kisi seal-zada shaKH ke manind nigun

kahan surma-nafas alfaz kahan soz-e-darun

lala-e-dasht-e-zamistan hai main jo baat kahun

main kahan pahuncha ki har but jise puja ab tak

hai shikasta sar-e-KHak aur main shikasta to hun

rahm kar KHwab-e-tamanna pe nigah-e-nigaran

TuT kar chaaron taraf bikhre paDe hain afsun

KHisht-kobi mein kise fursat-e-KHwab-e-KHuban

zinda rahne ke taqazon ne kiya zist ka KHun

kitne aqdar ke aiwan zamin-bos hue

aagahi rakh ka ek Dher hui jati hai kyun

kitne arman zamistan-zada shaKHon ki tarah

hath phailae hue takte hain su-e-gardun

shab ajab-soKHta-saman musafir aae

jism aaghushta-ba-KHun chehre malul-o-mahzun

bole ai ajnabi ai sada tamanna hamein dekh

hum bhi rakhte the kabhi aarzuen guna-gun

aur phir hum pe khula waqt ki raftar ka raaz

ab koi rang koi rup nahin wajh-e-sukun

bujh gain aarzuen sham ke baadal ki tarah

gulshan-o-shahr hue barf ki tah mein madfun

ja-ba-ja hausle taraj hue dil TuTe

pai-ba-pai hum ne sahe sard hawa ke shab-KHun

zindagi mahz shikaston ka ek ambar-e-giran

ab in aankhon mein nahin koi tilism-e-fayakun

hum to ai ajnabi mehman hain koi dam ke

dam-ba-dam mauj-e-fana kahti hai main hun main hun

subh-dam soKHta-saman musafir bhi gae

phir wahi hum wahi tanhai wahi haal-e-zabun
