chaand suraj miri chaukhaT pe kai sadiyon se — Rahat Indori

main aa kar dushmanon mein bas gayaa huun
yahaan hamdard hain do-chaar mere

ik mulaaqaat kaa jaadu ki utartaa hi nahin
tiri khushbu miri chaadar se nahin jaati hai

hamaare piir 'taqi-mir' ne kahaa thaa kabhi
miyaan ye 'aashiqi 'izzat bigaaD deti hai

aankh mein paani rakho honTon pe chingaari rakho
zinda rahnaa hai to tarkibein bahut saari rakho

ye zaruri hai ki aankhon kaa bharam qaaem rahe
niind rakkho yaa na rakkho khvaab meyaari rakho

botalein khol kar to pi barson
aaj dil khol kar bhi pi jaae

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

koi dastak koi aahaT na sadaa hai koi
duur tak ruuh mein phailaa huaa sannaaTaa hai

shaakh se kaT kar alag hone kaa ham ko gham nahin
phuul hain khushbu luTaa kar khaak ho jaaeinge ham

hai gulu-gir bahut raat ki pahnaai bhi
teraa gham bhi hai mujhe aur gham-e-tanhaai bhi
