UMMEED

UMMEED
(PUBLISHED IN A.M.U.DIRECTORY DUBAI,2009)

diye ummeed ke phir bhi jalaye rakhiye
dosti ghar na sahi rishta banaye rakhiye

purane zakhmon ko to tum bhoolne se rahe
naye wadoN pe bharosa banaye rakhiye

baahar darwaze pe dhoop sisakti na rahe
ghar ki deewar pe dareeche banaye rakhiye

safar mein jaane ka saman to tum bandh chale
apni palkon pe maa ki du'ayen rakhiye

mujhe azal se ta-abad tak tumhari zaroorat hai
meri umr ko apne saath milaye rakhiye

mein door hoon tumse ye saza kaafi hai
wapas aane ke imqaan banaye rakhiye

mera andaaz-e-bayan sirf mera apna hai
apni tahreer ko khud se milaye rakhiye

itna masroof na kar khuda koi milne na paye
soone ghar mein kuch mehmaan bulaye rakhiye
