Hawa Ke Dosh Pe Rakhe Hue Chiragh Hain Hum;
Jo Bujh Gaye Toh Hawa Se Shikayatein Kaisi!
Tum Se Zazbaat The Jab Tum Hi Nahi,
Phir Zamane Se Shikayat Na Rahi!
Dhokha Tha Nigahon Ka Magar Khoob Tha Dhokha;
Mujh Ko Teri Nazron Mein Mohabbat Nazar Aayi!
Rukhsat Hua To Aankh Mila Kar Nahi Gaya;
Woh Kyon Gaya Hai Yeh Bhi Bata Kar Nahi Gaya!
Ek Hi Shehar Mein Rehna Hai Magar Milna Nahi;
Dekhte Hain Ye Azziyat Bhi Ganwara Kar Ke!
* Azziyat - Taklkeef
Koi Tohmat Ho Mere Naam Chali Aati Hai;
Jaise Bazaar Mein Har Ghar Se Gali Aati Hai!
'Mushafi' Hum To Ye Samjhe The Ki Hoga Koi Zakhm;
Tere Dil Mein To Bahut Kaam Rafu Ka Nikla!
Mile To Hazaron Log The Zindagi Mein;
Par Wo Sabse Alag Tha Jo Qismat Mein Nahi Tha!
Apne Chehre Se Jo Zahir Hai Chhupayein Kaise;
Teri Marzi Ke Mutabiq Nazar Aayein Kaise!
Har Roz Chupke Se Nikal Aate Hain Naye Patte;
Yaadon Ke Darakhton Mein Maine Kabhi Patjharh Nahi Dekha!
