be-qarar
phans gai mazi ke tah-KHane mein
mustaqbil ki Tang
nabz-e-dauran
nim ke sae tale baiThi rahi
aur phir
qalb-e-muztar mein kukurmutte uge
chashm-e-fitrat ka
chura kar le gaya kajal koi
kankhjure sans se chipke hue
ghurte hain marmarin idrak ko
khet mein leTi hai diwane ki ruh
kud jao aansuon ki jhil mein
aaj dhurpad ga rahi hai chandni
ek sitara dusre par gir paDa
falsafi ke ghar mein tilcahiTTe bhaTakte rah gae
ghus gaya bhus aankh mein aakash ki
nind aanton ko
chabaati jae hai
phephaDon mein fuzla-e-ehsas hai
mahw-e-KHiram
raushni ko koele ki kan se fursat kahan
dosto aao
langoTi bandh len
Nazm
Alamat ke pas-manzar mein
Mohammad Yusuf Papa
