chhiDaa jab un ke ghar jhagDaa to un ki aql chakraai — Zafar Kamali

jo baiThaa hai bagulaa bhagat ki tarah
vahi ham ko asli shikaari lage

shauharon se bibayaan laDti hain chhaapa-maar jang
raabta un kaa bhi kyaa kashmir ki vaadi se hai

jo apnaa bhaai hai rahtaa hai vo paanv ki Thokar mein
magar joru kaa bhaai to gale kaa haar hotaa hai

pople munh se chane khaanaa nahin mumkin huzur
aa nahin sakti javaani lauT ke maajun se

ye rishvat ke hain paise din mein kaise luun musalmaan huun
main le saktaa nahin sar apne ye ilzaam roze mein

vahi suluk zamaane ne mere saath kiyaa
kiyaa thaa jaisaa musharraf ne be-nazir ke saath

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

balaa-e-jaan thi jo bazm-e-tamaashaa chhoD di main ne
khushaa ai zindagi khvaabon ki duniyaa chhoD di main ne

bas ek pal ki tamannaa-e-vasl ki khaatir
tamaam 'umr lagaa di gai sanvarne mein

umr bhar dekhaa kiye marne ki raah
mar gae par dekhiye dikhlaaein kyaa
