Kuchh Bol Guftugu Ka Saliqa Na Bhul Jae

Kishwar Naheed

kuchh bol guftugu ka saliqa na bhuul jaae

shishe ke ghar men tujh ko bhi rahna na bhuul jaae

va rakh sada daricha-e-khud-agahi ki tu

achchhe to kya buron ko parakhna na bhuul jaae

zakhm-e-nihan ko shauq-e-talab se juda na kar

hota hai roz o shab jo tamasha na bhuul jaae

kar den na be-talab ye musalsal aziyyaten

dil bhi kahin vafa ka saliqa na bhuul jaae

manzil ka nashsha qurbat-e-manzil na chhin le

apni gali men aa ke hi rasta na bhuul jaae

mat rakh tazad-e-zahir-o-batin ki aadmi

tujh ko tire amal se parakhna na bhuul jaae

vo bhiid hai ki shahr men chalna muhal hai

ungli pakadna baap ki bachcha na bhuul jaae

‘nahid’ rifaten to milengi bahut magar

ankhon ko apne shahr ka naqsha na bhuul jaae
