tasavvur--ek ghazal

[fersahab]

tasavvur maen ajab kuwate-beenaai hai
tu saamne na hokar bhi saamne aai hai

aankhon se ayaan masrate-pazeeraai hai
shadaabie-dil nisbate-alame-aaraai hai

faasle bewujood yahan kaisi rasaai hai
ye do dilon ke darmiyaan shanasaai hai

yaadon ne pai kuch kaifiyate-goaai hai
in tareek sannato maen bolti tanhai hai

dilzadgano pe tasuvvur faize-khudai hai
zulmate-shab maen ye tasire-masihai hai

aaj phir khwaish ne teri li angdaai hai
dil ko barmaati hui guzree purvaai hai

mulaqaat pal bhar ki barsoon judaai hai
hayaat jaise yaadon maen simat aai hai

har lamha mere hamraah teri parchai hai
rang layi aakhirkar "fer" ye aashnai hai
