aaKHir hum ko be-zari tak le aai
har shai par girwida rahne ki aadat

ab apna chehra begana lagta hai
hum ko thi sanjida rahne ki aadat

ab tak jism sulagta hai
kaisi thi barsat na puchh

Manish Shukla

awwal aaKHir hi jab nahin bas mein
kya karen darmiyan ki baaten

Manish Shukla

aat karne ka hasin taur-tariqa sikha
hum ne urdu ke bahane se saliqa sikha

ataun kya tumhein hasil safar ka
adhuri dastan hai aur main hun

Manish Shukla

chand lakiren to is darja gahri thin
dekhne wala Dub gaya taswiron mein

Manish Shukla

---

dil ka sara dard bhara taswiron mein
ek musawwir naqsh hua taswiron mein

Manish Shukla

guftugu ka koi to milta sira
phir use naraaz kar ke dekhte
