vaqt jab karvaTein badaltaa hai — Anwar Sabri

zulmaton mein raushni ki justuju karte raho
zindagi bhar zindagi ki justuju karte raho

uf vo maasum o hayaa-rez nigaahein jin par
qatl ke baad bhi ilzaam nahin aataa hai

main jo royaa un ki aankhon mein bhi aansu aa gae
husn ki fitrat mein shaamil hai mohabbat kaa mizaaj

tamaam umr qafas mein guzaar di ham ne
khabar nahin ki nasheman ki zindagi kyaa hai

jiine vaale tire baghair ai dost
mar na jaate to aur kyaa karte

meri nigaah-e-fikr mein 'anvar'
ishq fasaana husn hai uryaan

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

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

toD kar kaabe ko masjid na banaao zaahid
khaana-barbaad kisi dil hi mein kar ghar paidaa

sunaa haal-e-dil-e-'majruh' shab ko
koi hasrat si hasrat thi bayaan mein

pechidgi-e-taba ki ye saaf hai dalil
maani ulajh ke rah gae un ke kalaam mein

aah qaasid to ab talak na phiraa
dil dhaDaktaa hai kyaa huaa hogaa
