saKht muqaam : Dilawar Fighar


jadaa-e-fan me.n ba.De saKht muqaam aate hai.n
mar ke rah jaataa hai fanakaar amar hone tak

kitane Gaalib the jo paidaa hue aur mar bhii gaye
qadradaan ko taKhallus ki kHabar hone tak

kitane iqbaal rah-e-fikr me.n ut.The lekin
raastaa bhuul gaye Khatm-e-safar hone tak

kitne shabbiir Hasan kha.N na bane Josh kabhii
mar gaye kitane Sikander bhii Jigar hone tak

Faiz rang bhii ashaar me.n aa sakataa thaa
ungliya.N saath to de.n Khuun me.n tar hone tak

chaand zarro.n hi ko milatii hai ziyaa-e-Khurshiid
chaaand taare hii chamakate hai.n sahar hone tak

dil-e-shaayar pe kuchh aisii hii guzartii hai 'fighar'
jo kisii qatare pe guzare hai guhar hone tak
