aur ant mein judai baDi karb-nak hai
tujh mujh mein yun to roz-e-azal se wifaq hai
niche kahin badan mein miTi KHwahishon ke KHwab
upar daraazi-e-gham-e-dauran ki KHak hai
sakhiyan sajili bhor nayan darpna ki or
aanand por por ajab inhimak hai
qilon ke ye hisar nahin qurbaton ke dayar
in burjiyon ke par hawa-e-firaq hai
nyare piya ke rup kahin gun kahin sarup
mathura ka baadshah kahin bhainson ka chaak hai
ye rajdhaniyan yahan be-bas kahaniyan
kangan mein hath hai kahin nathli mein nak hai
miTha miThas se hai wo ujla kapas se
baaton mein ishtirak milan mein tapak hai
miTTi ki sab sifaraten bandhan bashaaraten
sabza nadi kinaron mazaron pe aak hai
haq-goi ham-rikab darida-badan ke bab
karbal kitab sidq siyaq-o-sabaq hai
Ghazal
Aur ant mein judai baDi karb-nak hai
Nasir Shahzad
