zaban tak aa gae
Interesting Fact
(It was recited at a Tarahi Mushaira which took place at the house of Ms. Zarrin Yaseen and Yaseen Zubair)
zā.iqe jab ham-burger ke zabāñ tak aa ga.e
pahle nā karte the jo sāhib vo haañ tak aa ga.e
uTh ke paanī bhī na piite the jo shā.er apne ghar
daad kī ḳhātir vo 'zarrīñ' ke makāñ tak aa ga.e
us gulū-kāra meñ resham kī thī kuchh aisī chamak
sadr-e-mahfil bhī khisak kar 'reshmāñ tak aa ga.e
us ne is andāz se chūmā mirī tahrīr ko
mere letter par lipstick ke nishāñ tak aa ga.e
zaiqe jab ham-burger ke zaban tak aa gae
pahle na karte the jo sahib wo han tak aa gae
uTh ke pani bhi na pite the jo shaer apne ghar
dad ki KHatir wo 'zarrin' ke makan tak aa gae
us gulu-kara mein resham ki thi kuchh aisi chamak
sadr-e-mahfil bhi khisak kar 'reshman tak aa gae
us ne is andaz se chuma meri tahrir ko
mere letter par lipstick ke nishan tak aa gae
