sakuut-e-shaam mitaao bahut andheraa hai - Firaq Gorakhpuri

sakuut-e-shaam mitaao bahut andheraa hai

suKhan kii shamaa jalaao bahut andheraa hai

dayaar-e-gam men dil-e-beqaraar chhuut gayaa

sambhal ke dhuudHane jaao bahut andheraa hai

ye raat vo ke suujhe jahaan na haath ko haath

Khayaalo duur na jaao bahut andheraa hai

laton ko chehare pe daale vo so rahaa hai kahiin

zayaa-e-ruKh ko churaao bahut andheraa hai

havaayen niim shabii hon ki chaadar-e-anjum

naq aab ruKh se uthaao bahut andheraa hai

shab-e-siyaah men gum ho gaii hai raah-e-hayaat

qadam sambhal ke uthaao bahut andheraa hai

guzashtaa ahd kii yaadon ko phir karo taazaa

bujhe chiraag jalaao nahut andheraa hai

thii ek uchakatii huii niind zindagii usakii

'Firaq' ko na jagaao bahut andheraa hai
