haalat-e-haal se begaana banaa rakkhaa hai — Abbas Qamar

ham hain asir-e-zabt ijaazat nahin hamein
ro paa rahe hain aap badhaai hai roiye

khush hain to phir musaafir-e-duniyaa nahin hain aap
is dasht mein bas aabla-paai hai roiye

mere kamre mein udaasi hai qayaamat ki magar
ek tasvir puraani si hansaa karti hai

inhein aankhon ne bedardi se be-ghar kar diyaa hai
ye aansu qahqaha banne ki koshish kar rahe the

khamoshi kah rahi hai ab ye do-aabaa ravaan hogaa
havaa chup ho to baarish ke shadid aasaar hote hain

ashkon ko aarzu-e-rihaai hai roiye
aankhon ki ab isi mein bhalaai hai roiye

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

aur bhi to hain zamaane mein tumhaare aashiq
ek main hi tumhein kyaa qaabil-e-ilzaam milaa
