jawanon mein tasadum kaise rukta
qabile mein koi buDha nahin tha

kabhi qarib kabhi dur ho ke rote hain
mohabbaton ke bhi mausam ajib hote hain

karne ko raushni ke taaqub ka tajraba
kuchh dur mere sath bhi parchhaiyan gain

KHud-kushi ke liye thoDa sa ye kafi hai magar
zinda rahne ko bahut zahr piya jata hai

Azhar Inayati

kisi ke aib chhupana sawab hai lekin
kabhi kabhi koi parda uThana paDta hai

kya rah gaya hai shahr mein khanDaraat ke siwa
kya dekhne ko ab yahan aae hue hain log

Azhar Inayati

log yun kahte hain apne qisse
jaise wo shah-jahan the pahle
