Barasti Hui Raat

Na jee bhar ke dekha na kuch baat ki,
Bari aarzoo thee mulaaqat ki.

Shab-e-hijar tak ye tashweesh hai,
Musaafir ne jaane kahan raat ki.!!

Muqaddar meri chashm pur aab ke,
Barasti huee raat barsaat ki.

Ujaalon ki paryan nahaane lagein,
Naddi gungunayi khayaalat ki.

Main chup tha to chalti hawa ruk gayi,
Zabaan’ sab samajhte hain jazbaat ki.

Kayee saal se kuch khabar hi nahin,
Kahan din guzaara kahan raat ki..!?
