zara si baat pe kya kya fasana-sazi hai
main KHud bhi chahta kab tha ki dastan na bane

apna makan bhi tha usi moD par magar
jaane main kis KHayal mein auron ke ghar gaya

dhup ke baadal baras kar ja chuke the aur main
oDh kar shabnam ki chadar chhat pe soya raat bha

Aslam Azad

doston ke sath din mein baiTh kar hansta raha
apne kamre mein wo ja kar KHub roya raat bha

Aslam Azad

hamare bich wo chup-chap baiTha rahta hai
main sochta hun magar kuchh mujhe pata na lage

Aslam Azad

hazar bar nigahon se chum kar dekha
labon pe us ke wo pahli si ab miThas nahin

Aslam Azad

kisi tarah na tilism-e-sukut TuT saka
wo de raha tha bahut dur se sada mujh ko
