puuchhate ho to suno kaise basar hotii hai - Meena Kumari 'Naaz'

puuchhate ho to suno kaise basar hotii hai

raat khairaat kii sadqe kii sahar hotii hai

saans bharane ko to jiinaa nahiin kahate yaa rab

dil hii dukhataa hai na ab aasteen tar hotii hai

jaise jaagii huii aankhon men chubhen kaanch ke khvaab

raat is tarah diivaanon kii basar hotii hai

gam hii dushman hai meraa gam hii ko dil dhuundhataa hai

ek lamhe kii judaaii bhii agar hotii hai

ek markaz kii talaash ek bhatakatii khushbuu

kabhii manzil kabhii tamhiid-e-safar hotii hai
