hamaare haath faqat ret ke sadaf aae — Aslam Ansari

jaane vaale ko kahaan rok sakaa hai koi
tum chale ho to koi rokne vaalaa bhi nahin

divaar-e-khastagi huun mujhe haath mat lagaa
main gir paDungaa dekh mujhe aasraa na de

kise kahein ki rifaaqat kaa daagh hai dil par
bichhaDne vaalaa to khul kar kabhi milaa hi na thaa

khafaa na ho ki tiraa husn hi kuchh aisaa thaa
main tujh se pyaar na kartaa to aur kyaa kartaa

jise darpesh judaai ho use kyaa maalum
kaun si baat ko kis tarah bayaan honaa hai

ham ko pahchaan ki ai bazm-e-chaman-zaar-e-vajud
ham na hote to tujhe kis ne sanvaaraa hotaa

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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

ai gham-e-zindagi na ho naaraaz
mujh ko aadat hai muskuraane ki

nazar bachaa ke jo aansu kiye the main ne paak
khabar na thi yahi dhabbe baneinge daaman ke

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