Jahan-zadi ka status

zamana kitna badal gaya hai
maqam rishton ka miT raha hai

kahin mohabbat ka rup dhaare
kahin sulagte ye nafraton se

kahin pe aankhon mein ret ban kar
chubhan ki surat rula rahe hain

kahin ye barqi payam ban kar
hazar milon pe chhai duri ke baadalon ko haTa rahe hain

dilon ki dhaDkan baDha rahe hain
riwayaton ko badal rahe hain

wafa ke dhage jafa se har dam ulajh rahe hain
udas lamhe KHushi-o-hairat ki sari ghaDiyan

dilon se bahar nikal ke diwar ka nawishta
mohabbat azali azim rishta

jo lakhon pardon mein jagmagata tha
ab status pe ishtiha ki KHabar ki surat badal raha hai

koi bhi jazba koi bhi rishta
na mustaqil hai na mo'atabar hai

palak jhapakne mein badle manzar
ki jaise koi jahan-zadi talluq apna badal rahi ho

nai koi chaal chal rahi ho
junun ki agli jo manzilen hain

wahan pe taswiren aawezan hain
dabi dabi muskurahaTen hain

ghuTi ghuTi sansanahaTen hain
junun ehsas aur mohabbat

waqar apna miTa rahi hain
bata rahi hain

zamana kitna badal gaya hai
