mushaabahat ke ye dhoke mumaasalat ke fareb — 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

kuchh to majburiyaan rahi hongi
yuun koi bevafaa nahin hotaa

ek parda saa hai fareb-e-nazar
ye bhi uTThe to dekhnaa kyaa hai

mere baa'd vafaa kaa dhokaa aur kisi se mat karnaa
gaali degi duniyaa tujh ko sar meraa jhuk jaaegaa

yaar main itnaa bhukaa huun
dhokaa bhi khaa letaa huun

is qadar musalsal thiin shiddatein judaai ki
aaj pahli baar us se main ne bevafaai ki

kholaa darvaaza samajh kar mujh ko ghair
khaa gae dhokaa miri aavaaz se
