vo zulfein vo nazrein vo jumbish labon ki — Chandrakant Rawat

musibat sar pe munh baae khaDi hai
tujhe ai dil mohabbat ki paDi hai

kaam ko imaan se anjaam detaa chal bashar
jaane kis surat mein teraa mehnataana aaegaa

tar-ba-tar ho kar rahein taa-zindagi
ai ghaTaa ik roz ham par yuun baras

ai mire dost ek muddat se
chaand dekhaa nahin teri chhat se

apni samjhe the magar nikli paraai zindagi
jaane kis miTTi ki thi qaabu na aai zindagi

mohabbat chaahiye to kar mohabbat
mohabbat dar mohabbat dar mohabbat

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

ye vaqt kaifiyaat se bhartaa nahin kabhi
ye jaam ikhtiyaar nahin kar rahaa huun main

saadgi o purkaari be-khudi o hushyaari
husn ko taghaaful mein jurat-aazmaa paayaa

main ab har shakhs se uktaa chukaa huun
faqat kuchh dost hain aur dost bhi kyaa

ai dost is zamaan-o-makaan ke azaab mein
dushman hai jo kisi ko duaa-e-hayaat de

tikhe to ho pa sach kaho us vaqt kyaa karo
tum ko gale lagaa le agar pyaar se koi
