Shagaf nahi tha zara b mujhe perhanay main

Shagaf nahi tha zara b mujhe perhanay main 

magar wo rooz sar e sham us ka aa jana 

kitab le ke mere samnay bahanay se 

koi too soch thi jo sochti wo rehti thi 

jhuka ke sir ko mere pass aa ke kehti thi 

kai sawal samjhnay hain aap se main nay 

na hoo ke aap mujhe lajawab hi ker dain 

meri nigah ko pamal e khawab hi ker dain 

haseen aankhon main wo aarzoo ke doray thay 

wo us ke gaal thay ya khoon ke katooray thay 

paseena tha ka tapakta tha us ke pathay se 

nigahain ashk e haya se bhari bhari us ki 

wafoor e sharm se wo hont kapkapatay thay 

qadam zamee-n pe jo dharti too larkharatay hoay 

kitab mujh ko thama ker wo samnay baithi 

thamai mujh ko laboon se nikal ker pencil 

nahitha farq kitaab aur us ke cheray main 

main us ko dekhta aur dekhta hi reh gia tha 

wo us ka dast e gulabi warq palat-ta hoa 

wo aanchal us ka mere samnay sarakta hoa 

haroof bhi meri nadanion pe hastay thay 

wo apnay seenay se note book hata leti 

ik aarzoo meri aaghoosh main lata deti 

khala main taktay hoay rukh jab us nay moora tha 

khamosh tha main usi nay sakoot tora tha 

hisaab aap ko aata nahi ye janti hon main 

sawal chorainkoi shair hi karain tehreer 

yehi hai mera assasa yahi meri taqdeer 

main us ki batoon ki gehraian samjta tha 

sawad e bazm main tanhaian samjhta tha 

qalam, kitab sabhi main nay us ko lootaya 

ke jaise paishkash e aaroo ko thukraya 

chali gai wo kisi khawab e khoobroo ki tarah 

kai baras hoay is ko  

main us ko yaad b kerta hoon aur sochta hoon 

hazaa shair ki aik ghazal likhon us per 

mainapnay yaad khazanay fida karon us per 

jo sochta hoon too dil se jawab aata hai 

usay too mujh se ziada hisaab aata hai
