is tarah kuchh badal gai hai zamin — Baqar Mehdi

is shahr mein hai kaun hamaaraa tire sivaa
ye kyaa ki tu bhi apnaa kabhi ham-navaa na ho

jaane kin mushkilon se jiite hain
kyaa karein koi mehrbaan na rahaa

ham milein yaa na milein phir bhi kabhi khvaabon mein
muskuraati hui aaeingi hamaari baatein

jaane kyuun un se milte rahte hain
khush vo kyaa honge jab khafaa hi nahin

aisi begaanagi nahin dekhi
ab kisi kaa koi yahaan na rahaa

sailaab-e-zindagi ke sahaare baDhe chalo
saahil pe rahne vaalon kaa naam-o-nishaan nahin

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

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

aa gai yaad shaam Dhalte hi
bujh gayaa dil charaagh jalte hi

tumhein ham is liye bhi sochte rahte hain aksar
ki ik tasvir mein dhundlaa saa hai chehraa tumhaaraa

dil ki aazurdagi bajaa lekin
vo bhi mahrum-e-yak-nigaah rahe
