MaaN ka intzaar

shabnam uski aankhoN se girkar sookh gayee hogi
un gulaboN ki saans phir aaj ruk gayee hogi

tere intzaar ki chaukhat pe khaDi maaN ki aankheiN
dekhkar jise deewar ghaDi ruk gayee hogi

itna qad-o-waqt lamba na kar pardes jaane waale
buDi hoti maaN ki kamar aur jhuk gayee hogi

teri khush-haali mujhe aziz hai par tu kahaN hai beteye
eid bhi tere baghair khushk gayee hogi

teri ek aah hi kaafi hai teri maaN ke liye
hook maaN ki zameeN se uphak gayee hogi

maaN teri mamta ke ham ab bhi karzdaar heiN
kaise kah dein ki ye qist chuk gayee hogi

apne ghamoN ko maaN ki ungliyoN pe rakhna
tere hisse ki dua kabhi na maphlook gayee hogi

maphlook--disappointed
