kaif-o-masti surur kyaa maani — Abdul Majeed Khan Majeed

nahin milti unhein manzil jinhein khauf-e-havaadis hai
jo maujon se nahin Darte nadi ko paar karte hain

zindagi chhoTi hai saamaan bahut
aur dil ke bhi hain armaan bahut

ab charaaghon mein zindagi kam hai
dil jalaao ki raushni kam hai

bevafaa kahiye baa-vafaa kahiye
dil mein aae jo barmalaa kahiye

na jaane kis ki yaad ne li dil mein gudgudi
aaina dekh dekh ke sharmaa rahe hain ham

kahaan shikva zamaane kaa pas-e-divaar karte hain
hamein karnaa hai jo bhi ham sar-e-baazaar karte hain

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

bas ek pal ki tamannaa-e-vasl ki khaatir
tamaam 'umr lagaa di gai sanvarne mein

idhar to tuul diyaa hai umiid ko us ne
udhar hayaat ataa ki hai mukhtasar mujh ko

afsos umr kaT gai ranj-o-malaal mein
dekhaa na khvaab mein bhi jo kuchh thaa khayaal mein

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain
