Lo firse yaad mujhe din wo puraane aaye...

Lo firse yaad mujhe din wo puraane aaye,
Mere maashook mujhe firse rulaane aaye...

Meri mehfil me apne sath humsafar laakar,
Me jal raha tha mujhe or jalaane aaye...

Jab ke soya me khwaabgaah me unki ek roz,
Muddato baad mujhe khwaab suhaane aaye...

Kimate badti h tab ishq ki baazaaro me,
Be wafao ke jab duniya me zamaane aaye......

Thak ke soya hai satao na, ye keh dena, jo,
Baad-Az-Marg muje koi jagaane aaye...
[Baad-Az-Marg: Mout Ke Baad]

Me jo muflis tha tab aya na koi milne mujhe,
Or amiri me meri pyaar jataane aaye.....

Subh hote hi huwe aise beniyaaz ye log,
Jalti shamma bhi koi ab na bujaane aaye.....

Be-Tir'O'Teg hua qatl mera ke jab wo,
Dast-E-Hinaai muje apne dikhaane aaye...
[Dast-E-Hinaai: Mahedi Lagaye Hath]

Me raah takta raha baam-e-rafakat se 'Anees',
Tha intezaar koi dil me basaane aaye...

-Anees Hyder
