cheharaa meraa thaa nigaahen us kii - Parveen Shakir

cheharaa meraa thaa nigaahen us kii

khaamushii men bhii vo baaten us kii

mere chehare pe gazal likhatii gaiin

sher kahatii huii aankhen us kii

shokh lamhon kaa pataa dene lagiin

tez hotii huii saansen us kii

aise mausam bhii guzaare ham ne

subahen jab apanii thiin shaamen us kii

dhyaan men us ke ye aalam thaa kabhii

aankh mahataab kii yaaden us kii

faisalaa mauj-e-havaa ne likkhaa

aandhiyaan merii bahaaren us kii

niind is soch se tuutii aksar

kis tarah katatii hain raaten us kii

duur rah kar bhii sadaa rahatii hai

mujh ko thaame hue baahen us kii
