Yashab Tamanna

paDh chuke hain nisab-e-tanha.i
ab likhenge kitab-e-tanha.i

karne ko kuchh nahin hai na.e saal men 'yashab'
kyon na kisi se tark-e-mohabbat hi kijiye

samajh saka na use main qusur mera hai
ki mere samne to vo khuli kitab raha

haqiqaton se mafar chahi thi 'yashab' main ne
par asl asl raha aur khvab khvab raha

karne ko kuchh nahin hai nae saal mein 'yashab'
kyon naa kisi se tark-e-mohabbat hi kijiye

samajh sakaa na use main qusur meraa hai
ki mere saamne to vo khuli kitaab rahaa

paDh chuke hain nisaab-e-tanhaai
ab likheinge kitaab-e-tanhaai

haqiqaton se mafar chaahi thi 'yashab' main ne
par asl asl rahaa aur khvaab khvaab rahaa
