aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
1911 - 1984 | Lahore, Pakistan
One of the widely celebrated and popular Urdu poets. Equally sung in romance and rebel. Faced political repression against his revolutionary views
dil naa-umiid to nahii.n naakaam hii to hai
aa.e kuchh abr kuchh sharaab aa.e
gulo.n me.n rang bhare baad-e-nau-bahaar chale
tumhaarii yaad ke jab zaKHm bharne lagte hai.n
gar baazii ishq kii baazii hai jo chaaho lagaa do Dar kaisaa
jo meraa tumhaaraa rishta hai
yaad
nahii.n nigaah me.n manzil to justujuu hii sahii
nasiib aazmaane ke din aa rahe hai.n
ik fursat-e-gunaah milii vo bhii chaar din
saarii duniyaa se duur ho jaa.e
ham parvarish-e-lauh-o-qalam karte rahe.nge
aur bhii dukh hai.n zamaane me.n mohabbat ke sivaa
qarz-e-nigaah-e-yaar adaa kar chuke hai.n ham
raat yuu.n dil me.n tirii kho.ii hu.ii yaad aa.ii
ham musaafir yuu.nhii masruuf-e-safar jaa.e.nge
kab Thahregaa dard ai dil kab raat basar hogii
kar rahaa thaa Gam-e-jahaa.n kaa hisaab
hazaar dard shab-e-aarzuu kii raah me.n hai
ham shaiKH na leader na musaahib na sahaafii
aur kyaa dekhne ko baaqii hai
vo aa rahe hai.n vo aate hai.n aa rahe ho.nge
duniyaa ne terii yaad se begaana kar diyaa
na jaane kis liye ummiid-vaar baiThaa huu.n
dono.n jahaan terii mohabbat me.n haar ke
vo baat saare fasaane me.n jis kaa zikr na thaa
jaantaa hai ki vo na aa.e.nge
aa.e to yuu.n ki jaise hamesha the mehrbaan
na gul khile hai.n na un se mile na mai pii hai
