ham hain asir-e-zabt ijaazat nahin hamein — Abbas Qamar

haalat-e-haal se begaana banaa rakkhaa hai
khud ko maazi kaa nihaan-khaana banaa rakkhaa hai

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
