haath mein chaand jahaan aayaa muqaddar chamkaa — Bashir Badr

na tum hosh mein ho na ham hosh mein hain
chalo mai-kade mein vahin baat hogi

bhuul shaayad bahut baDi kar li
dil ne duniyaa se dosti kar li

ik shaam ke saae tale baiThe rahe vo der tak
aankhon se ki baatein bahut munh se kahaa kuchh bhi nahin

khudaa aise ehsaas kaa naam hai
rahe saamne aur dikhaai na de

hasin to aur hain lekin koi kahaan tujh saa
jo dil jalaae bahut phir bhi dilrubaa hi lage

khudaa ki itni baDi kaaenaat mein main ne
bas ek shakhs ko maangaa mujhe vahi na milaa

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

gunaahgaaron aur aasiyon ko azaab-e-dozakh se vaaizo tum
Daraao be-shak magar na itnaa ki dil dahal jaae aadmi kaa

hikaayat-e-ishq se bhi dil kaa ilaaj mumkin nahin ki ab bhi
firaaq ki talkhiyaan vahi hain visaal ki aarzu vahi hai

ji mein aataa hai ki duniyaa ko badalnaa chaahiye
aur apne aap se maayus ho jaataa huun main

shabaab-e-husn hai barq-o-sharar ki manzil hai
ye aazmaaish-e-qalb-o-nazar ki manzil hai
