sab qatl ho ke tere muqaabil se aae hain — Faiz Ahmad Faiz

na jaane kis liye ummid-vaar baiThaa huun
ik aisi raah pe jo teri rahguzar bhi nahin

raat yuun dil mein tiri khoi hui yaad aai
jaise viraane mein chupke se bahaar aa jaae

har sadaa par lage hain kaan yahaan
dil sambhaale raho zabaan ki tarah

ai zulm ke maato lab kholo chup rahne vaalo chup kab tak
kuchh hashr to un se uTThegaa kuchh duur to naale jaaeinge

chaman pe ghaarat-e-gul-chin se jaane kyaa guzri
qafas se aaj sabaa be-qaraar guzri hai

karo kaj jabin pe sar-e-kafan mire qaatilon ko gumaan na ho
ki ghurur-e-ishq kaa baankpan pas-e-marg ham ne bhulaa diyaa

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

miri tamannaa hai ab ke tum phir milo to ji bhar ke muskuraaein
ki dekhnaa hai ye raushni kaa safar bahut der baa'd jaa kar

safar mein aise kai marhale bhi aate hain
har ek moD pe kuchh log chhuT jaate hain

yuun to maujud apne ghar mein hai
aadmi mustaqil safar mein hai

tamaam din mujhe suraj ke saath chalnaa thaa
mire sabab se mire ham-safar pe dhuup rahi

khush hain to phir musaafir-e-duniyaa nahin hain aap
is dasht mein bas aabla-paai hai roiye
