vatan-parasti hamaaraa mazhab hain jism-o-jaan mulk ki amaanat — Deepak Purohit

khushaamad taabedaari minnat-o-khidmat sujud-e-husn
azal se didani hai bebasi-o-aajizi-e-ishq

ye kaisi bad-duaa di hai kisi ne
samundar huun magar khaaraa huaa huun

azal se barse hai paakizgi falak se yahaan
numaayaan hove hai phir shakl-e-bahan mein vo yahaan

kahaan jurat in ashkon ki ki dehri aankh ki laanghein
hai pahraa zabt kaa aisaa ki sahme sahme rahte hain

yuun guftugu-e-ulfat dilchasp ham kareinge
aankhon se tum kahoge aankhon se ham suneinge

khub-ru kaun ye aayaa chaman mein aaj ki yaan
sharm se surkh hue jaate hain ye phuul sabhi

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

main jis mein rah na sakaa ji-huzuriyon ke sabab
ye aadmi hai usi kaamyaab mausam kaa
