lahu ke charagh

charagh itne jalao zamin ke mathe par
siyah raat ke aanchal ko nur se bhar do
ujala chand sitaron ka mand pad jae
falak ki raushni is raushni mein gum kar do


ye raat sal mein bas ek bar aati hai
is ek raat pe qurban zindagi kar do
jala ke apne lahu ke charagh ai logo
jahan-jahan bhi andhera hai raushni kar do


jo dip jalta hai mandir mein raushni ke liye
wahi to sehn-e-haram ko bhi jagmagata hai
jo farq hum ne kiya hai rahim-o-ram ke bich
usi khalij usi farq ko mitata hai


ujala jis ka koi dharm hai na mazhab hai
baghair farq sabhi ko gale lagata hai
sanam-kada ho haram ho ki bazm-e-mai-khana
har ek ke gosha-e-zulmat ko jagmagata hai
