Kuch To Hawa Bhi Sard Thi Kuch Tha Tera Khayal Bhi - Parveen Shakir

Kuch To Hawa Bhi Sard Thi, Kuch Tha Tera Khayal Bhi, 

Dil Ko Khushi Ke Sath Sath Hota Raha Malaal Bhi 

(Sard=Cold; Malaal=Sorrow)

Baat Wo Aadhi Raat Ki, Raat Wo Poore Chand Ki, 

Chand Bhi Ain Chait Ka Uss Pe Tera Jamaal Bhi 

 (Chet=Name of a month; Jamaal=Beauty)

Sab Se Nazar Bacha Ke Wo Mujh Ko Tha Aise Dekhta, 

Ek Dafa To Ruk Gai Gardish-e-Mah-o-Saal Bhi 

Dil To Chamak Sake Ga Kya, Phir Bhi Taraash Ke Dekh Lo 

ShishaaGaran-e-shahar Ke Hath Ka Ye Kamaal Bhi 

(Taraash=Polish; ShishaaGaran=Glazier)

Us Ko Na Pa Sake The Jab Dil Ka Ajib Haal Tha,

Ab Jo Palat Ke Dekhiye Baat Thi Kuch Muhaal Bhi 

(Muhaal=Difficulty)

Meri Talab Tha Ek Shakhs Wo Jo Nahin Mila To Phir, 

Haath Dua Se Yun Gira Bhool Gaya Sawaal Bhi 

(Talab=Quest)

Shaam Ki Nasamajh Hawa Pooch Rahi Hai Ek Pata 

Mauj-e-Hawa-e-Ku-e-Yaar Kuch To Mera Khayaal Bhi 

(Nasamajh=Naive)

Us Ke Hi Bazoun Main Aur Us Ko Hi Sochte Rahe 

Jism Ki Khwahishon Pe The Ruh Ke Aur Jaal Bhi...
