kaisa wo mausam tha ye to samajh na pae hum
shaKH se jaise phal TuTe kuchh yun lahrae hum
barson se ek aahaT par the kan lagae hum
aaj is moD pe aap hi apne samne aae hum
hum se bichhaD kar tu ne hum ko kaisa diya hai shap
aaine mein apni surat dekh na pae hum
peDon ka dhan luT chuke hain luTne wale log
jism pe mal kar baiThe hain peDon ke sae hum
suraj niglen chandni ugalen shayad mumkin tha
lekin apni is ummid ke kaam na aae hum
parbat ho ya peD ghana ho ya koi diwar
teri yaad liye phirte hain sae sae hum
gum hoti si lagti hai is ghar ki har ek chiz
aae hain bazar se kaise thake-thakae hum
ab ye teri apni KHushi hai jo tujh ko ras aae
hum aae to sath apne sab mausam lae hum
kaun kisi ka hota hai ye jaante hain hum bhi
phir bhi sab se milte hain ye baat bhulae hum
aankh khuli to sannaTe ki kokh mein the be-sudh
koi ajab aawaz thi jis par uDte aae hum
dharti par rakh den to dharti ke TukDe ho jaen
sabr o gham ka patthar hain sine se lagae hum
lamha lamha TuT raha hai kis ki Thokar se
dekhte dekhte ujaD rahe hain base-basae hum
kis ka chehra ubhar raha hai dil ke mashriq se
disha disha mein ghum rahe hain hath baDhae hum
gah koi chaTTan jahan par waqt ki chap thame
gah bane bahta hua pal aur hath na aae hum
Ghazal
Kaisa wo mausam tha ye to samajh na pae hum
