sab log apne apne qabilon ke sath the
ek main hi tha ki koi bhi lashkar mera na tha

samajh rahe hain magar bolne ka yara nahin
jo hum se mil ke bichhaD jae wo hamara nahin

samundar ke kinare ek basti ro rahi hai
main itni dur hun aur mujh ko wahshat ho rahi hai

Iftikhar Arif

samundaron ko bhi hairat hui ki Dubte waqt
kisi ko hum ne madad ke liye pukara nahin

shagufta lafz likkhe ja rahe hain
magar lahjon mein virani bahut hai

shikam ki aag liye phir rahi hai shahr-ba-shahr
sag-e-zamana hain hum kya hamari hijrat kya

sipah-e-sham ke neze pe aaftab ka sar
kis ehtimam se parwar-digar-e-shab nikla
