har qadam is mutabaadil se bhari duniyaa mein — Abdul Ahad Saaz

bol the divaanon ke jin se hosh vaalon ne
soch ke dhundlakon mein apnaa raasta paayaa

laa se laa kaa safar thaa to phir kis liye
har kham-e-raah se jaan ulajhti rahi

nazar to aate hain kamron mein chalte-phirte magar
ye ghar ke log na jaane kahaan gae hue hain

shaaeri talab apni shaaeri ataa us ki
hausle se kam maangaa zarf se sivaa paayaa

muflisi bhuuk ko shahvat se milaa deti hai
gandumi lams mein hai zaaiqa-e-naan-e-javin

pas-manzar mein 'fēd' hue jaate hain insaani kirdaar
focus mein rafta rafta shaitaan ubhartaa aataa hai

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin
