tum ko maalum javaani kaa mazaa hai ki nahin — Ahmad Husain Mail

mohabbat ne 'maail' kiyaa har kisi ko
kisi par kisi ko kisi par kisi ko

musalmaan kaafiron mein huun musalmaanon mein kaafir huun
ki quraan sar pe but aankhon mein hai zunnaar pahlu mein

jitne achchhe hain main huun un mein buraa
hain bure jitne un mein achchhaa huun

niind se uTh kar vo kahnaa yaad hai
tum ko kyaa sujhi ye aadhi raat ko

hai hukm-e-aam ishq alaihis-salaam kaa
puujo buton ko bhed kuchh in mein khudaa ke hain

naaz kar naaz tire naaz pe hai naaz mujhe
meri tanhaai hai partav tiri yaktaai kaa

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

ret par ik nishaan hai shaayad
ye hamaaraa makaan hai shaayad

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

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

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

kaho kyaa mehrbaan naa-mehrbaan taqdir hoti hai
kahaa maan ki duaaon mein baDi taasir hoti hai
