Ab wo yad ata hay
jis k pas honay se
waqt k guzarnay ka
kuch pata na chalta tha
Ab se pehlay sab shamein
shehar mai utrti thin
un ghazal Ankhon ki
surmagin ijazat se
aur subah hoti thi
uss k roshan tamasal
gaal ki tamazt se
ab wo yad ata hay
jis k door janay se rat din badaltay
aur na dil dharkta hay
zindagi nahi hay ye
Mustaqil alalat hay
Rog hay Dil-o-jaan ka
har ghari qayamat ka
Aasman b hay gum sum
aur zamin b gongi hay
chaar so howey madham
kho gaya kahi humdm
aur safar kat-ta hay km
kitni door jana hay
aur kahan thikana hay
kuch khabr nahi Ahmad
us ki chah nagri mai
kho gaya kahin Ahmad
shehar to wohi hay per
us mai wo nahi Ahmad
umar ik anghoti thi
aur wo nageen Ahmad
jis ko khojtay ho tum
wo kahin nahi Ahmad
wo to aik badal tha
wo to aik jhonka tha
wo to aik lamha tha
kab kahin rukay badal?
kab hawa kahin thehri?
lakh rokna chaha
waqt bewafa mahi
waqt taiz ru murakab
waqt tand kho darya
aur khaar-o-khas hum sab
Roknay ka socha to
khud b sath beh jao
shaam ho gayi Ahmad
khuwab ghar ki khirki se
waqt ki gulo karra
loriyan sunati hay
piyaar se bulati hay
aur kehti jati hay
shaam ho gayi Ahmad
zindagi gayi Ahmad
aao thora sasta lo
kis ki rah taktay ho?
Manzilon ki chahat ka
jin per sehar taari ho
Aisey khud magan rahi
Raah ki Muhabbat mai
Mubtala nahi hotay
kis ki raah taktay ho?
khud pasand logon ko
Iss tarah nahi rotay...
