baahar se chaTTaan ki tarah huun — Zafar Iqbal

yuun mohabbat se na de meri mohabbat kaa javaab
ye sazaa sakht hai thoDi si riaayat kar de

yuun bhi hotaa hai ki yak dam koi achchhaa lag jaae
baat kuchh bhi na ho aur dil mein tamaashaa lag jaae

kyaa khabar jis kaa yahaan itnaa uDaate hain mazaaq
khud hamein bhi kabhi is rang mein Dhalnaa paD jaae

apni marzi se bhi ham ne kaam kar Daale hain kuchh
lafz ko laDvaa diyaa hai beshtar maani ke saath

haath pair aap hi main maar rahaa huun filhaal
Dubte ko abhi tinke kaa sahaaraa kam hai

raaste hain khule hue saare
phir bhi ye zindagi ruki hui hai
