ham kahaan honge na jaane is tamaashaa-gaah mein — Afsar Mahpuri

na jaane is qadar kyuun aap divaane se Darte hain
charaagh-e-anjuman hain aur parvaane se Darte hain

— Afsar Mahpuri

kahaan thi manzil-e-maqsud apni qismat mein
kisi ki raahguzar bhi mili hai mushkil se

— Afsar Mahpuri

ham to us vaqt samajhte hain ki aati hai bahaar
dasht se jab koi jhankaar si aa jaati hai

— Afsar Mahpuri

bahaar aaegi gulshan mein to daar-o-gir bhi hogi
jahaan ahl-e-junun honge vahaan zanjir bhi hogi

— Afsar Mahpuri

ye irtiqaa-e-bashar ki hai kaun si manzil
ki is ki zad mein khudaa bhi hai kaaenaat bhi hai

— Afsar Mahpuri

daagh dil ke hain salaamat to koi baat nahin
tirgi laakh sahi subh kaa imkaan rakhnaa

— Afsar Mahpuri

ret par ik nishaan hai shaayad
ye hamaaraa makaan hai shaayad

— Muzaffar Abdali

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

— Aabid Adeeb

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

— Khalid Sharif

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

— Irfan Sattar

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

— Aabid Adeeb

ghulaami mein na kaam aati hain shamshirein na tadbirein
jo ho zauq-e-yaqin paidaa to kaT jaati hain zanjirein

— Allama Iqbal
