Intezaar

roye bahut tab bhi, kahan karaar mila hai
jo manga nahi khuda se, wahi har baar mila hai

do din ki khushi, do raat ka sukoon
fir wahi mayusi, bechaini ka silisila hai

puri ho jati hai har dua, suna tha uske chaukhat pe

hame to uske dar se sirf inkaar mila hai

zindagi shayd gujar rahi hai imtehaan ke daur se
ek khatam hua to dusra is dil ko taiyaar mila hai

malaal nahi koi kar gaya, tanha is dil ko
is amir ke pass to tanhayi ka kaafila hai

woh khushnasib hai jinhe mil gya yaar ka saath
is khushnasib ko to kitaab me gulaab ki tarah, bas intezzar mila hai
