koi payam ab na payambar hi aaega
wo shab hai aasman se patthar hi aaega
ja kar wo apne shahr se us ko yaqin hai
pani pe koi naqsh bana kar hi aaega
itna badal gaya hun ki pahchanne mujhe
aaega wo to KHud se guzar kar hi aaega
be-dar ka ek makan rulata hai raat din
us ka bhi dil jo hoga kabhi bhar hi aaega
kya soch ke gaya hai KHalaon ki sair ko
ab ke parind lauT ke be-par hi aaega
KHushbu ka intizar na kar baiTh kar yahan
shishe ke is makan mein patthar hi aaega
patthar koi faza mein muallaq rahega kyun
'manzur' tai hai ye kisi sar par hi aaega
Ghazal
Koi payam ab na payambar hi aaega
