ek usi ko dekh na paae varna shahr ki saDkon par — Ameeq Hanafi

vo jab mujh ko dekh rahi thi main ne us ko dekh liyaa thaa
bas itni si baat thi lekin baDhte baDhte kitni baDhi hai

dil mein dukh aankhon mein nami aasmaan par ghaTaaein
andar baahar is or us or har or baadal

phuul khile hain likhaa huaa hai toDo mat
aur machal kar ji kahtaa hai chhoDo mat

donon kaa milnaa mushkil hai donon hain majbur bahut
us ke paanv mein mehndi lagi hai mere paanv mein chhaale hain

ishq ke hijje bhi jo na jaanein vo hain ishq ke daavedaar
jaise ghazlein raT kar gaate hain bachche schōl mein

cigarette jise sulagtaa huaa koi chhoD de
us kaa dhuaan huun aur pareshaan dhuaan huun main

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

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

vo dard huun koi chaara nahin hai jis kaa kahin
vo zakhm huun ki hai dushvaar indimaal miraa

dard mein lazzat bahut ashkon mein raanaai bahut
ai gham-e-hasti hamein duniyaa pasand aai bahut

bahut ghurur thaa biphre hue samundar ko
magar jo dekhaa mire aansuon se kam-tar thaa
