tufaan uThaa rahaa hai mire dil mein sail-e-ashk — Nazeer Akbar Abadi

jise mol lenaa ho le le khushi se
main is vaqt donon jahaan bechtaa huun

ghash khaa ke giraa pahle hi shoale ki jhalak se
muusaa ko bhalaa kahiye to kyaa tuur ki sujhi

mai bhi hai miinaa bhi hai saaghar bhi hai saaqi nahin
dil mein aataa hai lagaa dein aag mai-khaane ko ham

dekhe na mujhe kyunkar az-chashm-e-hiqaarat-u
vo sarv-e-javaan yaaro man-faakhta-e-piram

mazmun-e-sard-mehri-e-jaanaan raqam karun
gar haath aae kaaghaz-e-kashmir kaa varaq

vo aap se ruThaa nahin manne kaa 'nazir' aah
kyaa dekhe hai chal paanv paD aur us ko manaa laa

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

kitne hi saanp yahaan aa ke paDe rahte hain
is liye aastin dil se bhi baDi rakkhi hai

umr-bhar un se ta'alluq nahin TuuTaa kartaa
aise kuchh log hain jo dil mein utar jaate hain

sab ko dil kaa raaz bataanaa Thiik nahin
duniyaa-daari duniyaa-daari hoti hai
