baarhaa aise bhii apne dil ko bahlaanaa paraa

baarhaa aise bhii apne dil ko bahlaanaa paraa

shaam-e-tanhaa’ii meN yaadoN se lipaT jaanaa paraa


har daf’aa pahlii shanaa-saa’iiyaaN na yaad aayiin use

har daf’aa apnaa ta’arruf phir se karvaanaa paraa


rezaa-rezaa ho gaye hain aaj mere khvaab phir

aaj ek patthar se phir shiishe ko takraanaa paraa


naa-rasaa’iiyon kii thakan ne kar diyaa halkaan phir

dasht se nikle to vaapis dasht meN aanaa paRaa

phir bhii ham ne aql ko rahbar nahiin maanaa “Jaleel”

dil ke go har faasile par ham pachtaanaa paraa


Ahmed Jaleel
