Lifafe me band kayi chitthiyan rakhi thi usne,
Jo kabhi jazbaat na chupate to kya ho jata,
Minnat kayi dafa karte rahe do ajnabi,
Mulaqat ke kuch bahane mil jate to kya ho jata..
Ghairo ke dard ko saajha samajhne wale shaks ko,
Khud ke dil se rubaru kar pate to kya ho jata,
Chahe phir wo hazaro koshishe kar lete kabhi,
Ek zamana unke naam ho jate to kya ho jata..
Fursat kabhi unhe bhula dene ki na wajah kabhi mili,
Ye fikr o anjaam pehle suna dete to kya ho jata,
Saza ke kabil har wo waqt ke panno ki qaid se,
Unhe gunhegar lafzon se bacha laate to kya ho jata..
Is sannaton bhari mehfilo me jo dil bujh sa gaya tha,
Koi ghazal ki shakl me unhe sajate to kya ho jata,
Roshan to kabhi dil ki diwaro ko kiya nahi usne,
Andhero me hi use gale laga lete to kya ho jata..
Sambhalna chaha to koi sahara saath khada na hua,
Intezar ke bhi kayi bahane mil jate to kya ho jata,
Waise to bahot bhole aur masoom the unke qatil,
Khanjar jo yun hi dil me chodh jate to kya ho jata..
Love, Aslam (:
