muskuraane ki sazaa milti rahi — Javed Akram Farooqi

kitnaa mushkil huaa javaab mujhe
kitnaa aasaan thaa savaal us kaa

lamha lamha roz sanvarne vaalaa tu
lamha lamha lamha roz bikharne vaalaa main

main haathon mein khanjar le kar soch rahaa huun
lauTungaa to meraa bhi ghar zakhmi hogaa

ai khaak-e-vatan ab to vafaaon kaa silaa de
main TuTti saanson ki fasilon pe khaDaa huun

safar mein tum hamaare saath rahnaa
kahin ham raaston mein kho na jaaein
