Jab Bahaar Aayi to Sehraa Ki Taraf Chal Niklaa..!!

jab bahar aayi to sehra ki taraf chal nikla
sehan-e-gul chhod gaya dil mera pagal nikla

sehra=desert, sehan=yard, gul=rose

jab ussey dhoondne nikle to nishaaN tak na mila
dil meiN mojood raha aankh se oojhal nikla

oojhal=invisible

woh jo afsana-e-ghum sun ke hansa karte the
itna roye haiN k sab aankh ka kajal nikla

ik mulaqaat thi jo dil ko sada yaad rahi
hum jise umar samjhate the woh ik pal nikla

hum sukooN dhoondne nikle the pareshaan rahe
shehar to shehar hai jungle bhi na jungle nikla

kaun “Ayyub” pareshaan nahi tareeki meiN
chand aftaab pe dil seene mein be-kal nikla

tareeki=darkness, aftaab=face, bekal=uneasy

-Ayyub Romani
