لاکھ کہتے رہو برا ہوں میں
جانتا ہے خدا کہ کیا ہوں میں
لوگ جنت کی سوچ رکھتے ہیں
ماں کے بارے میں سوچتا ہوں میں
پاک ہے پیار اس قدر میرا
جسم کو چھوڑ کر ملا ہوں میں
آج پھر فون آ گیا اس کا
پھر سے سن لوں کہ بے وفا ہوں میں
جب کوئی حل نکل نہیں سکتا
سب تمہیں کیوں بتا رہا ہوں میں
کچھ تو ہے جو چھپا رہے ہو تم
درد آنکھوں سے آنکتا ہوں میں
دور مشکل میں ہی سہی ارشدؔ
ان کو اب یاد آ گیا ہوں میں

ارشد رسول بدایونی
