hasratein aa aa ke jama ho rahi hain dil ke paas — Ajiz Matvi

aaghaaz-e-mohabbat mein 'aajiz' rukti na thi mauj-e-ashk-e-ravaan
anjaam ab in khushk aankhon se ik ashk nikalnaa mushkil hai

mahv-e-hairat huun kharaash-e-dast-e-gham ko dekh kar
zakhm chehre par hain yaa hai aaina TuuTaa huaa

hotaa hai mahsus ye 'aajiz' shaayad us ne dastak di
tez havaa ke jhonke jab darvaaze se Takraate hain

muntazir huun main kafan baandh ke sar se 'aajiz'
saamne se koi khanjar nahin aayaa ab tak

insaan haadsaat se kitnaa qarib hai
tu bhi zaraa nikal ke kabhi apne ghar se dekh

ek ham hain ham ne kashti Daal di gardaab mein
ek tum ho Darte ho aate hue saahil ke paas

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

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

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai
