Pal Bhar Ka Mehman, Urdu Nazam By Ghalib Ahmad

kaun aaya hai
ye kis ne phunk kar rakhe qadam
dahliz par chup-chap choron ki tarah
raat ki tarikiyon mein sarsarahaT sanp ki
sans ko sine ke andar rok lo
sun na le qadmon ki aahaT
dil ki dhaDkan ko kaho chup sadh le
dil ka dar wa to na tha
par wo to darwaze se andar aa gaya
us ne dastak bhi na di
ek sae ki tarah hai sath sath
kya karen kis ko bulaen
kya kahen ye kaun hai
chup-chap be-awaz
gum-sum samne baiTha hua
yun to sab kuchh hai
agar socho to ye kuchh bhi nahin
wahm-o-guman
kaun ab DhunDe use
wo to aa kar raat ki tarikiyon mein
is tarah ghul-mil gaya
jaise apna jism ho us ka libas
hum ne dekha hai use
jo KHud se bhi ru-posh hai
wo hamari ruh ki gardish mein hai
aur hamare jism se sairab hai
ab agar tum so sako to so raho
ab wo jaega kahan
ab wo shayad phir na aaega kabhi
