suno ke raigzaar-e-umr ka yeh aakhri zarra

suno ke raigzaar-e-umr ka yeh aakhri zarra

meri be- jaaN hathaili sey…phisalta ja raha hey ab

meri guzri musafat ki thakan ab ood aai hey

merey qasid…suno..janay say pehlay itna kehna hey

mere ujary shehar ke un gali koochoN maiN jao tou

jahaN bachpan bitaya tha…jahaN sab kuch ganwaya tha

tou us weeran khandar ko..payaam-e-aakhri daina

waheeN aangan maiN dayeN hath pe…ik pairr daikho gay

usi boorhay shajar ke… sin raseeda say badan par tum

mere bay rang hathoN ki lakeeroN ki tarha…ik jaal daikho gay

usi peepal ki chaaooN maiN…

kisi masoom ke dil ne..kaii sapnay sajaye thay

kisi ki aankh ke aansu…kisi dil ne bahaaye thay

kisi ki jheel ankhoN ney…kaii saagar lutaye thay

bohat narmi say us peepal ko chuh kar..itna keh daina

ke ab aankhoN ke yeh darya…kahiN saagar nahiN rotay

muqaddar jinka sota hai….kabhi phir woh nahiN sotay

usay kehna mere qasid..!

jinhoN ne umr sari teri chaooN maiN basar kar di

woh aakhir pal tumharay pas aa kar..kuch na keh paye

lipat kar tum say ro laiN gay..agar duniya maiN reh paaye

suno qaasid..!!

wahaN say chand qadam ke faslay par…aik chokhat hey

wuhi chokhat hey yeh piyaray…

jahaN sajday kiye hum ney…jahaN par zindagi haari

jahaN kuch pal jiye hum ney….jahaN par jaan yeh waari

jawaaN margi pe meri shehr yeh maatam kunaaN hoga

magar…us aik chokhat par…ajab sa hi samaaN hoga..

wahaN raqsaaN sabhi chehroN pe kuch ra’aniyaaN hoNgi

wahaN bajti chaharoN su…bohat shehnaiyaN hoNgi

wahaN jiski nazar maiN jeet janay ki thakawat ho

magar…us dil nasheeN chehray pe..gehri muskurahat ho

samajh laina mere qaasid…yehi qatil mera thehra..!

meri aankhaiN yeh lay jao…mera yeh kaam kar daina

usay ji bhar ke takna tum….meri ankhoN maiN bhar laina

usay chupke say keh daina

“tumhari jeet ki khatir…yeh baazi jis ne haari hey….

nahiN tum ho sakay uske….woh mar kar bhi tumhari hey…

“nahiN…balkay…mere qaasid…

usay tum kuch nahiN kehna
