ahmaq nahin ki samjhen bura waqt Tal gaya


ahmaq nahīñ ki samjheñ burā vaqt Tal gayā
kuchh roz ke liye jo ye mausam badal gayā

yak-laḳht hañste log ye barham kyuuñ ho ga.e
shāyad mirī zabān se kuchh sach nikal gayā

raazī the ham to jaan bhī dene ke vāste
kam-zarf le ke dil hī hamārā machal gayā

kyā bolne ke hak kā uThā.egā fā.eda
jo bhuuk meñ zabān hī apnī nigal gayā

māñgegā jā.edād meñ hissa ye ek roz
filhāl chāhe le ke khilaune bahal gayā

ehsānmand chāhe hamārā na ho koī
par ham gire to saarā zamāna sambhal gayā

kāñToñ pe ehtiyāt se chaltā thā aadmī
in chamchamāte farshoñ pe 'jānib' phisal gayā

ahmaq nahin ki samjhen bura waqt Tal gaya
kuchh roz ke liye jo ye mausam badal gaya

yak-laKHt hanste log ye barham kyun ho gae
shayad meri zaban se kuchh sach nikal gaya

raazi the hum to jaan bhi dene ke waste
kam-zarf le ke dil hi hamara machal gaya

kya bolne ke hak ka uThaega faeda
jo bhuk mein zaban hi apni nigal gaya

mangega jaedad mein hissa ye ek roz
filhaal chahe le ke khilaune bahal gaya

ehsanmand chahe hamara na ho koi
par hum gire to sara zamana sambhal gaya

kanTon pe ehtiyat se chalta tha aadmi
in chamchamate farshon pe 'jaanib' phisal gaya
