dhup jab Dhal gai to saya nahin
ye talluq to koi rishta nahin
log kis kis tarah se zinda hain
hamein marne ka bhi saliqa nahin
sochiye to hazar pahlu hain
dekhiye baat itni sada nahin
KHwab bhi is taraf nahin aate
is makan mein koi daricha nahin
chalo mar kar kahin Thikane lagen
hum ki jin ka koi Thikana nahin
manzilen bhi nahin muqaddar mein
aur palaTna hamein gawara nahin
dusron se bhi rabt-zabt rakhen
zindagi hai koi jazira nahin
kab bhaTak jae 'aftab' husain
aadmi ka koi bharosa nahin
Ghazal
Dhup jab Dhal gai to saya nahin
Aftab Hussain
