Waqar Manvi

har gham sahna aur khush rahna
mushkil hai asan nahin hai

ab ke 'vaqar' aise bichhDe hain
milne ka imkan nahin hai

in ansuon se bhala mera kya bhala hoga
vo mere baa'd jo roya bhi yaad kar ke mujhe

khushi daman-kashan hai dil asir-e-gham hai barson se
hamari zindagi ka ek hi aalam hai barson se

kahan milegi bhala is sitamgari ki misal
taras bhi khata hai mujh par tabah kar ke mujhe

bahut se gham chhupe honge hansi men
zara in hansne valon ko TaTolo

bahut se gham chhupe honge hansi mein
zaraa in hansne vaalon ko TaTolo

dil mein jo mar jaae vo hai armaan
jo nikle armaan nahin hai

vaqaar' ai kaash meri umr mein shaamil na ki jaae
vo muddat haan vahi muddat jo guzri un ki furqat mein

kahaan milegi bhalaa is sitamgari ki misaal
taras bhi khaataa hai mujh par tabaah kar ke mujhe

hamaari zindagi kahne ki had tak zindagi hai bas
ye shiraaza bhi dekhaa jaae to barham hai barson se

gharib ko havas-e-zindagi nahin hoti
bas itnaa hai ki vo izzat se marnaa chaahtaa hai
