پھرے راہ سے وہ یہاں آتے آتے — داغ دہلوی

Phire raah se woh yahan aate aate

Phire raah se woh yahan aate aate
Ajal mar rahi to kahan aate aate
Na jaana ke duniya se jaata hai koi
Bahut der ki mehrban aate aate
Suna hai ke aata hai sar nama-bar ka
Kahan reh gaya armaghan aate aate
Yaqeen hai ke ho jaaye akhir ko sacchi
Mere munh mein teri zaban aate aate
Sunane ke qabil jo thi baat un ko
Wahi reh gayi darmiyan aate aate
Mujhe yaad karne se yeh muddaa tha
Nikal jaaye dam hichkiyan aate aate
Abhi sun hi kya hai jo bebakiyan hon
Inhein aayengi shokhiyan aate aate
Kaleja mere munh ko aayega ek din
Yun hi lab par aah-o-fughan aate aate
Chale aate hain dil mein armaan lakhon
Makan bhar gaya mehman aate aate
Nateeja na nikla thake sab payami
Wahan jaate jaate yahan aate aate
Tumhara hi mushtaq-e-deedar hoga
Gaya jaan se ek jawan aate aate
Teri aankh phirte hi kaisa phira hai
Meri raah par aasman aate aate
Pada hai bada pech phir dillagi mein
Tabiyat ruki hai jahan aate aate
Mere aashiyan ke toh the char tinke
Chaman ud gaya aandhiyan aate aate
Kisi ne kuch un ko ubhara toh hota
Na aate na aate yahan aate aate
Qayamat bhi aati thi hamraah us ke
Magar reh gayi ham-inan aate aate
Bana hai hamesha yeh dil bagh-o-sahra
Bahar aate aate khizan aate aate
Nahin khel ae Dagh yaaron se keh do
Ke aati hai Urdu zaban aate aate
