Saima Kanwal Poems

Apni bigri hui baatoN ko banaana seekho
Bujh bhi jaayeiN to chiraaghoN ko jalaana seekho
Dekhna ghair sitam tum pe kare ga phir se
Koi takleef ho dushman se nibhaana seekho
...

Dar band ho chuke haiN mohabbat ke baab ke
Hum muntazir haiN aaj bhi tere jawab ke
Manzil na ban sake ga wo hum ko thi ye khabr
Dil bhaagta tha kyuN bhala peeche saraab ke
...

Tire waaste hi sitam gar rahi hooN
Humesha se main tere dar par rahi hooN

Samajhta hai kyuN mujh ko pather sanam tu
...

Hum ko bhi chaahat thi bohat
Tum meiN bhi jur´at thi bohat

Hum ne kiya tum par yaqeeN
...
