Suna Hai Log Usay Aankh Bhar Ke Dekhtay Hain
Suna hai log usay aankh bhar ke dekhtay hain
So us ke shahar main kuchh din thahr ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai rabt hai us ko kharab halon se
So apnay aap ko barbad karkay dekhtay hain
Suna hai dard ki gahak hain chashm-e nazuk us ki
So ham bhi us ki gali se guzar kar dekhtay hain
Suna hai us ko bhi hai sher-o shayari se shagaf
So ham bhi mojaze apnay hunar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai bole to baton se phool jharatay hain
Ye baat hai to chalo baat kar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai raat use chand takta rehta hai
Sitaray baam-e falak se utar kar dekhtay hain
Suna hai hashr hain us ki gazal si aankhain
Suna hai us ko hirn dasht bhar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai din ko usay titliyan satati hain
Suna hai raat ko jugno thahar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai rat se barh kar hain kakulan us ki
Suna hai sham ko saye guzar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai us ki siyah chashmagi qiyamat hai
So us ko surma farosh aankh bhar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai us ke labon se gulab jalate hain
So ham bahar par ilzaam dhar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai aaina tamasal hai jabin us ka
Jo sada dill hain ban sanvar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai jab se hamail hain us ki gardan main
Mizaj aur hi lal-o gauhar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai chashm-e tasavur se dasht-e imkan main
Palang zawaiya us ki kamar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai us ke badan ke tarash aisay hain
Ke phuul apani qabayain qatar ke dekhtay hain
Woh sarvqad hai magar begul-e muraad nahin
Ke us shajar pe shagufay samar ke dekhtay hain
Bas ek nigah se lutata hai qafila dil ka
So rahravaan-e tamannaa bhi dar ke dekhtay hain
Suna hai us ke shabistan se mutasil hai behisht
Makin udhar ke bhi jalway idhar ke dekhtay hain
Rukay tu gardishain us ka tawaf karti hain
Chalay to us ko zamanay thahar ke dekhtay hain
Kisay naseeb ke be parahan usay dekhay
Kabhi kabhi dar-o divaar ghar ke dekhtay hain
Khaniyan hi sahi sab mubalaghay hi sahi
Agar woh khwab hai tabir kar ke dekhtay hain
Ab us ke shahar main tharain ki kuch kar jayan
Faraz aao sitaray safr ke dekhtay hain
