teri yaadon ke lamhe bhi bedard the — Abdul Mannan Tarzi

dard kaa silsila hai jahaan tak
dil ki jaagir hogi vahaan tak

is kashmakash mein teri gali se pare rahe
aae kahaan pe harf kahaan par na aae harf

naam-levaa tumhaaraa hai 'tarzi'
aadmi ki tarah milo pyaare

ik qayaamat hai aap kaa vaada
chaliye ye bhi azaab ho jaae

himmat-e-tark-e-vafaa Duub gai
kis ne aankhon mein utaaraa dariyaa

kyaa yahaan dekhiye kyaa vahaan dekhiye
aap hi aap hain ab jahaan dekhiye

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

tujhe bhi dekh liyaa ham ne o khudaa-e-ajal
ki teraa zor chalaa bhi to ahl-e-gham pe chalaa

tum jo chaaho to mire dard kaa darmaan ho jaae
varna mushkil hai ki mushkil miri aasaan ho jaae

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain
