dhuup nikli hai baarishon ke baad — Anjum Ludhianvi

khushbuein phuuT ke roi hongi
gul havaaon mein jo bikhraa hogaa

dosti bandagi vafaa-o-khulus
ham ye shama jalaanaa bhuul gae

niind kyuun TuuT gai aakhir-e-shab
kaun mere liye taDpaa hogaa

khud-kushi karne mein bhi naakaam rah jaate hain ham
kaun amrit ghol detaa hai hamaare zahr mein

rang hi se fareb khaate rahein
khushbuein aazmaanaa bhuul gae

subh kaa khvaab umr bhar dekhaa
aur phir niind aa gai 'anjum'

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

pyaaso raho na dasht mein baarish ke muntazir
maaro zamin pe paanv ki paani nikal paDe

vo mujh ko chhoD ke jis aadmi ke paas gayaa
baraabari kaa bhi hotaa to sabr aa jaataa

kisi ko qissa-e-paaki-e-chashm yaad nahin
ye aanhkein kaun si barsaat mein nahaai thiin

teraa ghar aur meraa jangal bhigtaa hai saath saath
aisi barsaatein ki baadal bhigtaa hai saath saath

dil miraa zulf seti chhuT phansaa abru mein
kufr kuun tark kiyaa maail-e-mehraab huaa
