juute ke intikhaab ko masjid mein jab gae — Dilawar Figar

is kaa kyaa hogaa ye jo unvaan aadhaa rah gayaa
ye bhi lete jaaein jo saamaan aadhaa rah gayaa

main bhi thaa haazir bazm mein jab tu ne dekhaa hi nahin
main bhi uThaa kar chal diyaa bilkul nayaa juutaa tiraa

pakDi gai radif to fauran ye kah diyaa
likhnaa kabhi thaa aur main yahaan likh gayaa abhi

ek achchhaa-khaasaa mard zanaane mein ghus paDaa
goyaa ki ek chor khazaane mein ghus paDaa

ek shaadi to Thiik hai lekin
ek do tiin chaar had kar di

kyaa bataaun mein tumhein is shahr kaa jughraafiya
bambai hai ik ghazal gaD-baD hai jis kaa qaafiya

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

koi viraani si viraani hai
dasht ko dekh ke ghar yaad aayaa

ishq udaasi ke paighaam to laataa rahtaa hai din raat
lekin ham ko khush rahne ki aadat bahut ziyaada hai

uThaa sakte nahin jab chuum kar hi chhoDnaa achchhaa
mohabbat kaa ye patthar is dafa bhaari ziyaada hai
