nahin tha koi sitara tere barabar bhi
Interesting Fact
Dedicated to the noted poet Asad Badayuni
nahīñ thā koī sitārā tire barābar bhī
huā ġhurūb tire saath terā manzar bhī
pighalte dekh rahe the zamīñ pe sho.ale ko
ravāñ thā aañkh se ashkoñ kā ik samundar bhī
kahīñ vo lafz meñ zinda kahīñ vo yādoñ meñ
vo bujh chukā hai magar hai abhī munavvar bhī
ajab ghulāvaTeñ shahd-o-namak kī nutq meñ thī
vahī suḳhan ki thā marham bhī aur nashtar bhī
munāfiqoñ kī baḌī fauj us se Dartī thī
aur us ke paas na thā koī lāv-lashkar bhī
nahin tha koi sitara tere barabar bhi
hua ghurub tere sath tera manzar bhi
pighalte dekh rahe the zamin pe shoale ko
rawan tha aankh se ashkon ka ek samundar bhi
kahin wo lafz mein zinda kahin wo yaadon mein
wo bujh chuka hai magar hai abhi munawwar bhi
ajab ghulawaTen shahd-o-namak ki nutq mein thi
wahi suKHan ki tha marham bhi aur nashtar bhi
munafiqon ki baDi fauj us se Darti thi
aur us ke pas na tha koi law-lashkar bhi
