'bahzaad' saaf saaf main kahtaa huun haal-e-dil — Behzad Lakhnavi

go muddatein hui hain kisi se judaa hue
lekin ye dil ki aag abhi tak bujhi nahin

ishq kaa ejaaz sajdon mein nihaan rakhtaa huun main
naqsh-e-paa hoti hai peshaani jahaan rakhtaa huun main

ham bhi khud ko tabaah kar lete
tum idhar bhi nigaah kar lete

ai jazba-e-dil gar main chaahun har chiiz muqaabil aa jaae
manzil ke liye do gaam chalun aur saamne manzil aa jaae

ai dekhne vaalo mujhe hans hans ke na dekho
tum ko bhi mohabbat kahin mujh saa na banaa de

zinda huun is tarah ki gham-e-zindagi nahin
jaltaa huaa diyaa huun magar raushni nahin

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

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

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

dil-e-naakaam thak ke baiTh gayaa
jab nazar aai manzil-e-maqsud
