baDe vasuq se duniyaa fareb deti rahi — Shaukat Wasti

ajiib baat hai din bhar ke ehtimaam ke baad
charaagh ek bhi raushan huaa na shaam ke baad

'shaukat' hamaare saath baDaa haadisa huaa
ham rah gae hamaaraa zamaana chalaa gayaa

ravish ravish pe chaman ke bujhe bujhe manzar
ye kah rahe hain yahaan se bahaar guzri hai

mujhe to ranj qabaa-haa-e-taar-taar kaa hai
khizaan se baDh ke gulon par sitam bahaar kaa hai

umr bhar us ne bevafaai ki
umr se bhi vo baa-vafaa na rahaa

dekh saktaa huun binaa chashme ke main
dost teri bevafaai saaf saaf

de kar fareb mujh ko gayaa thaa vo shokh-tan
khaa kar fareb lauTaa to siine se lag gayaa

kuchh din ke baa'd us se judaa ho gae 'munir'
us bevafaa se apni tabiat nahin mili

mujh ko na dil pasand na vo bevafaa pasand
donon hain khud-gharaz mujhe donon hain naa-pasand

tasvir kyuun dikhaaein tumhein naam kyuun bataaein
laae hain ham kahin se kisi bevafaa ki hai
