ghirte baadal mein tanhai kaisi lagti hai
milan ka mausam aur judai kaisi lagti hai
sune man ke taron se jab baaten hoti hon
duje aangan ki shahnai kaisi lagti hai
dil ki choT ubhar aae aur zaKHm hare ho jaen
yaadon ki chalti purwai kaisi lagti hai
tum ko shahr-e-KHayal mein rahna kaisa lagta hai
wo basti jo dil ne basai kaisi lagti hai
chaDhte rup ki suraj dewta aur bhi man baDhaen
dhundli aankhon ki binai kaisi lagti hai
jag bite jab jagmag ye dil us ki jot se tha
ab jo wo surat phir yaad aai kaisi lagti hai
dil to apna bhar bhar aae niyyat nahin bhare
umr ka hasil aisi kamai kaisi lagti hai
bachpan aur jawani buDhi umr ke dar pe hain
tinon zamanon ki yakjai kaisi lagti hai
'baqar' sari umr guzari ku-e-malamat mein
aaKHir umr ki ye ruswai kaisi lagti hai
Ghazal
Ghirte baadal mein tanhai kaisi lagti hai
