kiya toota hay andar andar kiyon chehra kumlaya hay
tanha tanha ronay walo kon tumhay yaad aya hay
chupkay chupkay slug rahay thay yaad may un kee dewanay
ek taray nay toot k yaro kiya un ko samjhaya hay
Rang barangee is mehfil may tum kiyon itnay chup chup ho
Bhool bhee jao pagal logo kiya khoya kiya paya hay
sher kahan hay khon hay dil ka jo lafzon may bakhaira hay
dil k zakhm jala kar hum nay mehfil ko garmaya hay
ab shahzad ye jhoot na bolo wo itna bay dard nahi
apnee chahat ko bhee parkho gar ilzaam lagya hay
(Muhammad Akhtar Shaikh)
