yunhi mausam ki adaa dekh ke yaad aayaa hai — Ahmad Faraz

jo ghair the vo isi baat par hamaare hue
ki ham se dost bahut be-khabar hamaare hue

TuuTaa to huun magar abhi bikhraa nahin 'faraaz'
mere badan pe jaise shikaston kaa jaal ho

'faraaz' ishq ki duniyaa to khub-surat thi
ye kis ne fitna-e-hijr-o-visaal rakkhaa hai

judaaiyaan to muqaddar hain phir bhi jaan-e-safar
kuchh aur duur zaraa saath chal ke dekhte hain

zindagi teri ataa thi so tire naam ki hai
ham ne jaise bhi basar ki tiraa ehsaan jaanaan

sunaa hai log use aankh bhar ke dekhte hain
so us ke shahr mein kuchh din Thahar ke dekhte hain

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

ishq udaasi ke paighaam to laataa rahtaa hai din raat
lekin ham ko khush rahne ki aadat bahut ziyaada hai

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

jiinaa taDap taDap kar marnaa sisak sisak kar
fariyaad ek ji hai kyaa kyaa kharaabiyon mein

yaad bhi aataa nahin kuchh bhultaa bhi kuchh nahin
yaa bahut masruf huun main yaa bahut fursat mein huun
