Urdu Poetry

 haaye logoN kii karam-farmaaiyaaN

tohmateN, badnaamiyaaN, rusvaaiyaaN

zindagii shaayed isii kaa naam hai
duuriyaaN, majbuuriyaaN, tanhaaiyaaN

kyaa zamaane meN yuuN hii kaTtii hai raat
karvateN, betaabiyaaN, angRaaiyaaN

kyaa yahii hotii hai shaam-e-intizaar
aahaTeN, ghabraahaTeN, parchhaiyaaN

aik paikar meN simaT kar rah gayiiN
KhuubiyaaN, zebaaiyaaN, raanaaiyaaN

zaKhm dil ke phir hare karne lagiiN
badliyaaN, barkhaa ruteN, purvaaiyaaN

“Kaif” paida kar samandar kii tarah
vus’ateN, KhaamoshiyaaN, gahraaiyaaN
