Dost RuKHsat Ho Gae, Urdu Nazam By Ghalib Ahmad

dost ruKHsat ho gae
un se mulaqaten gain baaten gain
shahar tha aabaad jin ke dam-qadam se
wo hamari chandni raaten gain
marne wale mar gae
zinda magar hum bhi nahin
wo to ghusl-e-aKHiri le kar hue phir tazgi se aashna
nithre suthre oDh kar apni safedi ke kafan
kafur ki KHushbu ko nathunon mein samae
so gae aaram se ThanDe badan
apni apni qabr par takiya kiye
wo thakan ki is musalsal sarsarahaT se to ab aazad hain
sans ki zanjir se laTke hue
jagte rahne ki kawish aur lagan
is tag-o-dau se pare aabaad hain
aur hum
jo is kinare par khaDe
roz-o-shab lahron ka karte hain shumar
aap-biti roz sunte hain
magar KHamosh hain
KHamushi se bahta pani
roz bahta dekhte hain
Dub jaane ki magar himmat nahin
kaun jaane Dub hi jaen kahin
Dub jao ya chale aao idhar
baz aao aur phir zinda raho
satwan dar bhi khula hai muntazir
dagh-e-hijrat de gae KHushbu ke phul
kaun ab ban kar charagh-e-rah tum ko
hath se ungli pakaD kar
tifl-e-maktab ki tarah le kar baDhe
aur ye kahe
maut ka lamha hamari zindagi ka aa gaya
jism ki ThanDak to dastak de rahi hai
aao kuchh baaten karen
aur phir chalen
dost ruKHsat ho gae
