jina mushkil hai ki aasan zara dekh to lo
log lagte hain pareshan zara dekh to lo
phir muqarrir koi sargarm sar-e-mimbar hai
kis ke hai qatl ka saman zara dekh to lo
ye naya shahar to hai KHub basaya tum ne
kyun purana hua viran zara dekh to lo
in charaghon ke tale aise andhere kyun hai
tum bhi rah jaoge hairan zara dekh to lo
tum ye kahte ho ki main ghair hun phir bhi shayad
nikal aae koi pahchan zara dekh to lo
ye sataish ki tamanna ye sile ki parwah
kahan lae hain ye arman zara dekh to lo
Ghazal
Jina mushkil hai ki aasan zara dekh to lo
Javed Akhtar
