Kab Talak Shama’ Jali …

Kab talak shama’ jali, yaad naheeN
Sham-e-gham kaise dhali, yaad naheeN

Is qadar yaad hai apne the sabhi
Kisne kya chaal chali, yaad naheeN

Hum zamane mein kuch aise bhatkay
Ab to unki bhi gali yaad naheen

Abr tha, jaam tha, per aap na thay
Woh ghaRi kaise tali yaad naheeN

Kat gayi umr kisi tarh’  “Qateel”
Woh buri thee k bhali yaad naheeN

(Qateel Shifayi)
