ROZ EK SHER

गुल चढ़ायेंगे लहद पर जिनसे यह उम्मीद थी
वो भी पत्थर रख गये अफ़सोस दफ़नाने के बाद

gul chadhaayenge lahad par jinse yah ummiid thii
vo bhii patthar rakh gaye afsos dafnaane ke baad

Those expected to bring flowers to my grave
Unfortunately, even they placed stones [on my coffin] after burying me
