zulm ke paaon se jo phuul masal jaate hain - Azra Adil Rashid

zulm ke paaon se jo phuul masal jaate hain

khaar ban kar vahii patthar pe nikal aate hain

phir bahaaron kii zaruurat nahiin rahatii un ko

ye khizaan men bhii badii shaan se khil jaate hain

guunche vo milatii nahiin hai jinhen aagosh koii

vahii mitate hain to kiichad men kamal aate hain

dab-dabaaii huii aankhon men na aannkhen daalo

in men tuufaan hain chhed se machal jaate hain

vo jo kal raunaq-e-faanuus thii aiwaan ke liye

aaj us shammaa se aiwaan dahal jaate hain

dhuup thii tez to saaye bhii the paron ke tale

is ke dhalate hii rukh in ke bhii badal jaate hain

hamane samajhaa hai zamaane ko badii der ke baad

ye vo khanjar hain jo apano pe bhii chal jaate hain

hamako aataa nahiin zakhmon kii numaaish karanaa

khud hii rote hain tadapate hain bahal jaate hain

jo samajhate hain hawabis ko vo khilona kii tarah

un se tuufaan bhii bach-bach ke nikal jaate hain

azm-vaale kabhii himmat nahiin haaraa karate

ashk 'azra' ke ye kah kah ke samhal jaate hain
