Interesting Fact
1973
āñkhoñ meñ ruup sub.h kī pahlī kiran sā hai
ahvāl jī kā zulf-e-shikan-dar-shikan sā hai
kuchh yādgār apnī magar chhoḌ kar ga.iiñ
jaatī rutoñ kā haal diloñ kī lagan sā hai
āñkheñ baras ga.iiñ to nikhār aur aa gayā
yādoñ kā rañg bhī to gul-o-yāsman sā hai
kis moḌ par haiñ aaj ham ai rahguzār-e-nāz
ab dard kā mizāj kisī ham-suḳhan sā hai
hai ab bhī rañg rañg-e-tamannā kā pairahan
ḳhvāboñ ke saath ab bhī vahī husn-e-zan sā hai
kin manziloñ luTe haiñ mohabbat ke qāfile
insāñ zamīñ pe aaj ġharīb-ul-vatan sā hai
vo jis kā saath chhoḌ chukā nāz-e-āgahī
ab bhī talāsh-e-rah meñ vahī rāhzan sā hai
shāḳhoñ kā rañg-rūp ḳhizāñ le ga.ī magar
andāz aaj bhī vahī arbāb-e-fan sā hai
ḳhushbū ke thāmne ko baḌhā.e haiñ haath 'adā'
dāmān-e-ārzū bhī sabā-pairahan sā hai
aankhon mein rup subh ki pahli kiran sa hai
ahwal ji ka zulf-e-shikan-dar-shikan sa hai
kuchh yaadgar apni magar chhoD kar gain
jati ruton ka haal dilon ki lagan sa hai
aankhen baras gain to nikhaar aur aa gaya
yaadon ka rang bhi to gul-o-yasman sa hai
kis moD par hain aaj hum ai rahguzar-e-naz
ab dard ka mizaj kisi ham-suKHan sa hai
hai ab bhi rang rang-e-tamanna ka pairahan
KHwabon ke sath ab bhi wahi husn-e-zan sa hai
kin manzilon luTe hain mohabbat ke qafile
insan zamin pe aaj gharib-ul-watan sa hai
wo jis ka sath chhoD chuka naz-e-agahi
ab bhi talash-e-rah mein wahi rahzan sa hai
shaKHon ka rang-rup KHizan le gai magar
andaz aaj bhi wahi arbab-e-fan sa hai
KHushbu ke thamne ko baDhae hain hath 'ada'
daman-e-arzu bhi saba-pairahan sa hai
