ai pari-zad kuchh to bata ye bhi kya qarya-e-qaf ka bhed hai

ai pari-zad kuchh to bata ye bhi kya qarya-e-qaf ka bhed hai
teri komal hatheli pe cell-phone raushan hai ya jam-e-jamshed hai
chashm-e-hairan mein aashuftagi se muradon bhari raat dhalne lagi
ek sitara chamakta hai ya aasman ki rida mein koi chhed hai


koh-e-alburz par ran pada jaane kab se hai viran bahisht-e-barin
sair ke waste ab faqat bagh-e-shiraaz hai takht-e-jamshed hai
wasl ki barishon mein ghana bed-e-majnun ki sar-sabz-o-shadab tha
hijr mein ab to laghar badan jaise koi larazta hua bed hai


nasl-dar-nasl milte kahan khal-o-khad chashm-o-rukhsar ke silsile
par ye qudrat ki mashshatgi jiniyati karamat ka ek bhed hai
