dil ke sahra mein baDe zor ka baadal barsa
itni shiddat se koi raat mujhe yaad aaya
jis se ek umr raha dawa-e-qurbat mujh ko
hae us ne na kabhi aankh uTha kar dekha
to meri manzil-e-maqsud hai lekin napaid
main teri dhun mein shab-o-roz bhaTakne wala
phail jata tere honTon pe tabassum ki tarah
kash haalat ka pahlu kabhi ho aisa
kitni shiddat se tere aariz-o-lab yaad aae
jab sar-e-sham ufuq par koi tara chamka
ab ke is taur se aai thi gulistan mein bahaar
daman-e-shaKH mein sukha hua patta bhi na tha
dastan gham ki use 'tab' sunate kyun ho
kab rag-e-sang se KHun ka kabhi dhaara nikla
Ghazal
Dil ke sahra mein baDe zor ka baadal barsa
Tab Aslam
