yaad aae tu mujh ko bahut jab shab kaTe jab pau phaTe — Nasir Shahzad

dariyaa pe Tikri se pare khaanqaah thi
tab tere mere pyaar ki duniyaa gavaah thi

dekhaa qad-e-gunaah pe jab is ko multafit
baDh kar had-e-nigaah lagi us ko Dhaanpne

khile dhaan khilkhilaa kar paDe naddiyon mein naake
ghani khushbuon se mahke mire des ke ilaaqe

hijraton mein huzuriyon ke jatan
paanv ko duriyon ne gheraa hai

paaTi hain ham ne biphri chanaabein tire liye
ham le gae hain tujh ko svayamvar se jiit ke

ek kaaTaa raam ne siitaa ke saath
dusraa ban boss mere naam par

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

aataa rahaa huun yaad main us ko tamaam umr
is zaaviye se ishq mein naakaam kab huaa

main agar TuuTaa to saaraa shahr bikhregaa 'nabil'
aisaa patthar huun fasil-e-shahr ki buniyaad kaa

tamaam yaadein mahak rahi hain har ek ghuncha khilaa huaa hai
zamaana biitaa magar gumaan hai ki aaj hi vo judaa huaa hai

vo ayaadat ko na aayaa karein main dar guzraa
haal-e-dil puchh ke aur aag lagaa jaate hain

main tinke chuntaa phirtaa huun sayyaad tiliyaan
tayyaar ho rahaa hai qafas aashiyaan ke saath
