patthar sulag rahe the koii naqsh-e-paaa na thaa - Mumtaz Rashid

patthar sulag rahe the koii naqsh-e-paaa na thaa

ham us taraf chale the jidhar raastaa na thaa

parchhaaiyon ke shahar kii tanhaaiiyaan na puuchh

apanaa shariik-e-gam koii apane sivaa na thaa

yuun dekhatii hai gumshudaa lamhon ke mod se

is zindagii se jaise koii vaastaa na thaa

cheharon pe jam gaii thiin khayaalon kii ulajhanen

lafzon kii justajuu men koii bolataa na thaa

khurshiid kyaa ubhaarate dil kii tahon se ham

is anjuman men koii saharaashanaa na thaa
