paikar-e-sang-o-ahang jaisa tanha khaDa hun waise to
andar TuTa phuTa hun salim lagta hun waise to
zehn ki aankhon par danista paTTi bandhe baiTha hun
sab kuchh dekh raha hun sab kuchh samajh raha hun waise to
kal gumnami ki gahri khai mein bhi gir sakta hun
shohrat ki unchi choTi par aaj khaDa hun waise to
bas ek munafiqat hai jis ki neamat se mahrum hun main
mere yaro main bhi bilkul tum jaisa hun waise to
apne badan ki qaid se lekin chhuTkara na-mumkin hai
bahar ki sari diwaren toD chuka hun waise to
jo tariki mere apne andar thi so qaem hai
galiyon galiyon chand sitare banT raha hun waise to
Ghazal
Paikar-e-sang-o-ahang jaisa tanha khaDa hun waise to
Mehboob Rahi
