Waseem Malik

jo shakhs mira dast-e-hunar kaaT raha hai
nadan hai shadab shajar kaaT raha hai

koi dastak koi aahaT na sada hai koi
duur tak ruuh men phaila hua sannaTa hai

shakh se kaT kar alag hone ka ham ko gham nahin
phuul hain khushbu luTa kar khaak ho ja.enge ham

lutf ye hai ki usi shakhs ke mamnun hain ham
jis ki talvar ne qiston men hamen kaaTa hai

kal saath tha koi to dar o baam the raushan
tanha huun 'vasim' aaj to ghar kaaT raha hai

lagta hai juda sab se kirdar 'vasim' us ka
vo shahr-e-mohabbat ka bashinda nazar aa.e

koi dastak koi aahaT na sadaa hai koi
duur tak ruuh mein phailaa huaa sannaaTaa hai

shaakh se kaT kar alag hone kaa ham ko gham nahin
phuul hain khushbu luTaa kar khaak ho jaaeinge ham

lutf ye hai ki usi shakhs ke mamnun hain ham
jis ki talvaar ne qiston mein hamein kaaTaa hai

kal saath thaa koi to dar o baam the raushan
tanhaa huun 'vasim' aaj to ghar kaaT rahaa hai

lagtaa hai judaa sab se kirdaar 'vasim' us kaa
vo shahr-e-mohabbat kaa baashinda nazar aae

jo shakhs miraa dast-e-hunar kaaT rahaa hai
naadaan hai shaadaab shajar kaaT rahaa hai
