tiri mahfil mein sab baiThe hain aa kar — Anees Ansari

main ne aankhon mein jalaa rakhaa hai aazaadi kaa tel
mat andheron se Daraa rakh ki main jo huun so huun

naam teraa bhi rahegaa na sitamgar baaqi
jab hai firaun na changez kaa lashkar baaqi

jo parinde uD nahin sakte ab un ki khair ho
aane vaalaa hai isi jaanib shikaari haae haae

baDaa aazaar-e-jaan hai vo agarche mehrbaan hai vo
agarche mehrbaan hai vo baDaa aazaar-e-jaan hai vo

laash qaatil ne khuli pheink di chauraahe par
dekhne vaalaa koi ghar se na baahar niklaa

tiri aankhon ne dhoyaa hai mujhe yuun
main bilkul saaf-suthraa ho gayaa huun

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

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

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

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

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi
