To read about Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi:

بدلتا آج کے انساں کا دھارا میں نے دیکھا ہے
جو ابریشم تھا ، اس کو سنگ خارا میں نے دیکھا ہے

خدا جانے یہ باہر آ کے کس کس کو لیٹے گا
جو اٹھتا اپنے اندر سے شرارہ میں نے دیکھا ہے

ذرا سا آگے جا کے پھر گلی میں لوٹ آیا ہوں 

کھلی کھڑکی سے لہراتا اشارہ میں نے دیکھا ہے

تخیل کا کرشمہ ہے یا منظر سازی دل ہے
جو اپنی بند آنکھوں سے نظارہ میں نے دیکھا ہے

یقیں سا آرہا ہے روشنی اب پھیل جائے گی
فلک کی گود سے گرتا ستارا میں نے دیکھا ہے

میں کوشس کر رہا تھا جس کو انور بھول جانے کی
وہی تو خواب ہے جس کو دوبارا میں نے دیکھا ہے
