shaam ne jab palkon pe aatish-daan liyaa — 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

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

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

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

koi viraani si viraani hai
dasht ko dekh ke ghar yaad aayaa

un ki yaad mein bahte aansu khushk agar ho jaaeinge
saat samundar apni khaali aaankhon mein bhar laaungaa

kaun suntaa hai bhikaari ki sadaaein is liye
kuchh zarifaana latife yaad kar lete hain ham
