Some Gud She'rs

Hota hai hasino ka bi shayid yahi waqt-e-numaish,
Varna chand na sar-e-aam nikalta...

Yaan to mujhe peene de maszid me vaiz,
Yaan woh jagah bata jahan khuda na ho...

Kya ada hai ki chilman se lage baithe hain,
Saaf chupte bi nahi, samne aate bi nahi...

Jis lamhe ka intezaar tha hamein ta-umar,
Us Lamhe ko guzarne mein, ik lamha bi na laga...

Phool to is chaman ko do din mehka gaye,
Hasrat un ghunchon pe hain, jo bin khile hi murjha gaye...
