na chaand ne kiyaa raushan mujhe na suraj ne — Faragh Rohvi

usi taraf hai zamaana bhi aaj mahv-e-safar
'faraagh' main ne jidhar se guzarnaa chaahaa thaa

ham se tahzib kaa daaman nahin chhoDaa jaataa
dasht-e-vahshat mein bhi aadaab liye phirte hain

mujh mein hai yahi aib ki auron ki tarah main
chehre pe kabhi dusraa chehraa nahin rakhtaa

khuub nibhegi ham donon mein mere jaisaa tu bhi hai
thoDaa jhuTaa main bhi Thahraa thoDaa jhuTaa tu bhi hai

kisi ne raah kaa patthar hamin ko Thahraayaa
ye aur baat ki phir aaina hamin Thahre

yaaro hudud-e-gham se guzarne lagaa huun main
mujh ko sameT lo ki bikharne lagaa huun main

vo chaand hai to aks bhi paani mein aaegaa
kirdaar khud ubhar ke kahaani mein aaegaa

muddaton baa'd kabhi ai nazar aane vaale
iid kaa chaand na dekhaa tiri surat dekhi

iid ke baa'd vo milne ke liye aae hain
iid kaa chaand nazar aane lagaa iid ke baad

agar vo chaand ki basti kaa rahne vaalaa thaa
to apne saath sitaaron kaa qaafila rakhtaa

iid mein iid hui aish kaa saamaan dekhaa
dekh kar chaand jo munh aap kaa ai jaan dekhaa

chaand hai teraa ham-safar koi nahin hai raahbar
aage qadam baDhaa ke rakh duur ki raushni na dekh
