lafz ki qaid se rihaa ho jaa — Tauqeer Taqi

yahin aanaa hai bhaTakti hui aavaazon ko
yaani kuchh baat to hai koh-e-nidaa mein aisi

ab zamaane mein mohabbat hai tamaashe ki tarah
is tamaashe se bahaltaa nahin tu bhi main bhi

daaman bachaa rahe the ki chehra bhi jal gayaa
kis aag se guzar ke tiri raushni mein aae

hijr thaa baar-e-amaanat ki tarah
so ye gham aakhiri hichki se uThaa

badan mein dil thaa muallaq khalaa mein nazrein thiin
magar kahin kahin siine mein dard zinda thaa

kal jahaan divaar hi divaar thi
ab vahaan dar hai jabin hai ishq hai
