koi divaar salaamat hai na ab chhat meri — Aslam Aazad

doston ke saath din mein baiTh kar hanstaa rahaa
apne kamre mein vo jaa kar khuub royaa raat bhar

dhuup ke baadal baras kar jaa chuke the aur main
oDh kar shabnam ki chaadar chhat pe soyaa raat bhar

main ne apni khvaahishon kaa qatl khud hi kar diyaa
haath khun-aalud hain in ko abhi dhoyaa nahin

apnaa makaan bhi thaa usi moD par magar
jaane main kis khayaal mein auron ke ghar gayaa

hamaare biich vo chup-chaap baiThaa rahtaa hai
main sochtaa huun magar kuchh mujhe pataa na lage

na dasht o dar se alag thaa na jangalon se judaa
vo apne shahr mein rahtaa thaa phir bhi tanhaa thaa
