(Bang-e-Dra-129) Shabnam Aur Sitare

Shabnam Aur Sitare

Ek Raat Ye Kehne Lage Shabnam Se Sitare
Har Subah Naye Tujh Ko Muyassar Hain Nazare

Kya Janiye, Tu Kitne Jahan Dekh Chuki Hai
Jo Ban Ke Mite, Un Ke Nishan Dekh Chuki Hai

Zohra Ne Suni Hai Ye Khabar Aik Malik Se
Insanon Ki Basti Hai Bohat Door Falak Se

Keh Hum Se Bhi Uss Kishwar-e-Dilkash Ka Fasana
Gata Hai Qamar Jis Ki Mohabbat Ka Tarana

Ae Taro Na Pucho Chamanistan-e-Jahan Ki
Gulshan Nahin, Ek Basti Hai Woh Aah-o-Faghan Ki

Ati Hai Saba Waan Se Palat Jane Ki Khatir
Bechari Kali Khilti Hai Murjhane Ki Khatir

Kya Tum Se Kahun Kya Chaman Afroz Kali Hai
Nanha Sa Koi Shaola Besouz Kali Hai

Gul-e-Nala-e-Bulbul Ki Sada Sun Nahin Sakta
Daman Se Mere Motiyon Ko Chun Nahin Sakta

Hain Murgh-e-Nawa Raiz Giraftar, Ghazab Hai
Ugte Hai Teh-e-Saya-e-Gul Khar, Ghazab Hai

Rehti Hai Sada Nargis-e-Bimaar Ki Tar Aankh
Dil Talib-e-Nazara Hai, Mehroom-e-Nazar Ankh

Dil Soukhta-e-Garmi-e-Faryad Hai Shamshad
Zindani Hai Aur Naam Ko Azad Hai Shamshad

Tare Sharar-e-Aah Hain Insan Ki Zuban Mein
Mein Girya-e-Gardoon Hun Gulistan Ki Zuban Mein

Nadani Hai Ye Gard-e-Zameen Touf Qamar Ka
Samjha Hai Ke Darman Hai Wahan Dagh Jigar Ka

Bunyad Hai Kashana-e-Alam Ki Hawa Par
Faryad Ki Tasveer Hai Qartas-e-Faza Par
