Naye Saal Ki Pehli Nazam
Andeshon kay darwazon par
Koi nishaan lagata hai
Aur raaton raat tamaam gharon par
Wohi siyahi phir jaati ahi
Dukh ka shab-e-khoon roz adhoora reh jaata hai
Aur shanakht ka lamha beet'ta jaata hai
Main aur mera shaher-e-mohabbat
Tareeki ki chadar orhay
Roshni ki aahat par kaan lagaye kab se baithay hain
Ghoron ki taapon ko suntay rehtay hain
Had-e-smaat se aagay jaanay wali awazon kay resham se
Apni rida-e-siyaah par taaray kaarhtay rehtay hain
Angishtaanay ik ik kar kay chalni honay ko aye
Ab baari angisht-e-shahdat ki anay wali hai
Subha se pehlay woh katnay se bach jaye .... to
Parveen Shakir
