phir lauT ke dharti pe bhi aane nahin deta
wo panw KHala mein bhi jamane nahin deta
KHush rahta hai ujDe hue logon se hamesha
basne nahin deta wo basane nahin deta
manzur nahin lamhon ki pahchan bhi us ko
aur nam daraKHton se miTane nahin deta
deta hai masafat bhi muhib andhe kuon ki
yun to wo kisi ko bhi KHazane nahin deta
kahta hai ki baqi bhi rahe yaad safar ki
saughat koi sath bhi lane nahin deta
basne bhi nahin deta mujhe apne nagar mein
sahra bhi magar mujh ko basane nahin deta
maujon ke mujhe raaz bhi samjhata nahin wo
sahil pe safina bhi lagane nahin deta
de deta hai har bar wahi naw purani
KHwabon ko samundar mein bahane nahin deta
patthar bhi mujhe hone nahin deta wo lekin
aankhon mein koi KHwab sajaane nahin deta
Ghazal
Phir lauT ke dharti pe bhi aane nahin deta
