bas itnaa saa hai khulaasa miri kahaani kaa — Anjum Farooq

'ishq vaqt-e-digar pe kyon chhoDein
ye tire baa'd ho nahin saktaa

ab tiraa rasta judaa meraa judaa
dekh qismat kaa likhaa hote hue

saahabo main ne taraashe nahin patthar ke sanam
mere haathon se banaa aur banaa ek hi shakhs

jahaan tak ho sake khud ko bachaa badnaam hone se
mohabbat khatm hoti hai mohabbat 'aam hone se

bahut achchhaa bahut achchhaa bahut achchhaa hai tu lekin
tujhe koi kahe achchhaa mujhe achchhaa nahin lagtaa

is liye kashkol mein paDti hai bhiik
ham ne hai laaThi se laTkaayaa huaa

bil-aakhir thak haar ke yaaro ham ne bhi taslim kiyaa
apni zaat se ishq hai sachchaa baaqi sab afsaane hain

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

baat karnaa pyaar ki aasaan se aasaan hai
ishq karnaa karte rahnaa hai kaThin se bhi kaThin

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa
