Tarapte hain na roote hain, na hum faryad karte hain – Aatish Poetry

Tarapte hain na roote hain, na hum faryad karte hain,

Sanam ki yaad me har dam khuda ko yaad karte hain,

Unhin ke ishq me hum naala-o-faryaad karte hain,

Elaahi dekhiye kis din hame wo yaad karte hain…

Shab-e-faraaq me kia kia saanp lehraate hain seene pe,

Tumhari kakul-e-peechan ko jab hum yaad karte hain…

(Naala = Loud); (Shab-e-faraaq = night of separation ; kakul-e-peechan = Curly Hair)
