abhi raushan huaa jaataa hai rasta — Shakeel Jamali

sab se pahle dil ke khaali-pan ko bharnaa
paisa saari umr kamaayaa jaa saktaa hai

apne khuun se itni to ummidein hain
apne bachche bhiiD se aage nikleinge

har kone se teri khushbu aaegi
har sanduq mein tere kapDe nikleinge

umr kaa ek aur saal gayaa
vaqt phir ham pe khaak Daal gayaa

jhuuT mein shak ki kam gunjaaish ho sakti hai
sach ko jab chaaho jhuThlaayaa jaa saktaa hai

zindagi aise bhi haalaat banaa deti hai
log saanson kaa kafan oDh ke mar jaate hain
