Intizaar

* Nazm *
__________

Raat bhar deeda-e-namnaak mein lahraate rahe,
Saans ki tarah se aap aate rahe jaate rahe..

Khush the hum apni tamannaon ka khwab aayega,
Apna armaan bar-afganda-naqaab aayega..

Nazrein neechi kiye sharmaye hue aayega,
Kaakulein chehre pe bikhraye hue aayega..

Aa gayi thi dil-e-muztar mein shakebaai si,
Vaj rahi thi mere ghum-khaane mein shahnaai si..

Patiyaan khadkin to samjha ke lo aap aa hi gaye,
Sajde masroor ke ma'abood ko hum pa hi gaye..

Shab ke jaage hue taaro'n ko bhi neend aane lagi,
Aap ke aane ki ek aas thi ab jaane lagi..

Subah ne sej se uthte hue li angdaai,
O saba! tu bhi jo aai to akeli aai..

Mere mahboob meri neend udaane waale,
Mere masjood meri rooh pe chhaane waale..

Aa bhi ja, taaki mere sajdo'n ka armaan nikle,
Aa bhi ja, taaki tere qadmo'n pe meri jaan nikle.!!
