chalo safak zulmat key badan ka ek tukra tou kata

aur waqt ki be intehai key samandar mein

chalo saffak zulmat key badan ka ek tukra tou kata

aur waqt ki be intehai ke samandar mein

koi taboot girney ki sada ayee

ye mana raat ankhon mei kati

ek ek pal but sa ban kar jam gaya

ek saans tou ek sadi key baad phir sey saans lene ka khayal ayaa

ye sab sach hai ko raat ek karb be payan thi

lekin karb hi tkhleeq hai

aey pou phatey key dil ruba lamho gawahi do

yun hi kat'ti chali jaein gi ratin

aur phir wo aftaab ubhrey ga

jo apni shuaoon sey abad ko roshni bakhshey ga

phir koi andheri dharti ko na chuu paey ga

dana yan mazhab key mutabiq hashar aa jaey ga

lekin hashar bhi ek karb hai

har karb ek takhleeq hai

aye pou phatey ke dil ruba lamho gawahi do

(Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi)

rait sey butt na bana aey mere achey fankar

ek lamhe ko theher mein tujhey pathar laa dun

rait sy butt na bana aye mere achey fankaar

ek lamhe ko theher mein tujhey pathar laa dun

mein terey samny anbaar laga dun lekin

kon sey rang ka pathar terey kaam aey ga

surkh pathar jisey dil kehti hai be-dil dunya

ya wo patharaai hui ankh ka neela pathar

jis mein sadyon key tahayyar ke parey hon doorey

kya tujhey rooh ke pathar ki zarurat ho gi

jis pe haq baat bhi pathar ki tarha girti hai

ek wo pathar hai jo kehlata hai tehzeeb sufaid

es key mar mar mein syah khoon jhalak jata hai

ek insaaf ka pathar bhi tou hota hai magar

haath mein taisha-e- zar ho tou wo haath aataa hai

jitney meyaar hein es dor key sab pathar hein

 jitni aqdaar hein es dor ki sab pathar hein

sabza o gul bhi hawa aur faza bhi pathar

mera ilhaam tera zehen rasa bhi pathar 

es zamaney mein tou har fan ka nishan pathar hai

haath pathar hein terey meri zuban pathar hai

rait sey butt na bana ay mere achey fankaar

(Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi)

shaam ko subha chama yaad ayee

kis ki khushbu-e-badan yaad ayee

shaam ko subha chama yaad ayee

kis ki khushbu-e-badan yaad ayee

jab khayalon mein koi morr aayaa

terey gaisoo ki skhikan yaad ayee

yaad aye tere paikar key khutoot

apni kotahi fann yaad ayee

chaand jab dor e ufaq par dooba

tere lehje ki thakan yaad ayee

din shu'aoon sey ulajhtey guzra

raat ayee tou kiran yaad ayee

(Ahmad Nadeem Qasmi)

ab tou shehron se khabar aati hai deewano ki

koi pehchaan hi baaqi nahi veerano ki

ab to shehro se khabar aati hai deewano ki

koi pehchan hi baqi nahi veerano ki

apni poshak se hushyaar ki khuddam e qadeem

dhajjiyan mangte hein apne girebano ki

sanate phailti jati hein magar es ke saath

sarhaden toot'ti jati hein gulistano ki

dil mein wo zakhm khile hein ke chaman kyaa shai hai

ghar mein baarat si utrii hui gul-danon ki

un ko kya fikr ke main paar laga yaa dooba

behas karte rahe sahil pe jo toofano ki

teri rehmat to musallam hai magar ye to bataa

kaun bijli ko khabar deta hai kashano ki

maqbare bante hein zindon ke makano se buland

kis qadar auj pe takreem hai insano ki

ek ek yaad ke haatho pe charaghon bharey tasht

kaaba e dil ki fazaa hai ke sanam khano ki
