shaaeri pahle rasulon ki duaa thi 'qaisar' — Qaisarul Jafri

ghar lauT ke roeinge maan baap akele mein
miTTi ke khilaune bhi saste na the mele mein

zindagi bhar ke liye ruuTh ke jaane vaale
main abhi tak tiri tasvir liye baiThaa huun

havaa khafaa thi magar itni sang-dil bhi na thi
hamin ko shama jalaane kaa hausla na huaa

divaaron se mil kar ronaa achchhaa lagtaa hai
ham bhi paagal ho jaaeinge aisaa lagtaa hai

kitne dinon ke pyaase honge yaaro socho to
shabnam kaa qatra bhi jin ko dariyaa lagtaa hai

tumhaare shahr kaa mausam baDaa suhaanaa lage
main ek shaam churaa luun agar buraa na lage

du'aaein maan ki pahunchaane ko milon-mil jaati hain
ki jab pardes jaane ke liye beTaa nikaltaa hai

labon pe us ke kabhi bad-du'aa nahin hoti
bas ek maan hai jo mujh se khafaa nahin hoti

kisi ke harf-e-tamannaa ki intihaa huun main
kisi ke harf-e-duaa ne miri hifaazat ki

bahut dilon ko sataayaa hai tu ne ai zaalim
mujhe ye Dar hai koi shakhs bad-duaa na kare

dam jo niklaa to muddaaa niklaa
ek ke saath dusraa niklaa

jaane kab se haath baandhe kar rahaa huun iltijaa
ab to meri baat par aamin kah de zindagi
