baDhne lagi yaqin o gumaan mein jo kashmakash — Nayyar Sultanpuri

pahunchaa na thaa yaqin ki manzil pe main abhi
meraa khayaal mujh se bhi aage nikal gayaa

siine pe kitne daagh liye phir rahaa huun main
zakhmon kaa ek baagh liye phir rahaa huun main

di hai 'nayyar' mujh ko saaqi ne ye kaisi khaas mai
sab ki nazrein uTh rahi hain mere saaghar ki taraf

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

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi
