ik ishq kaa gham aafat aur us pe ye dil aafat — Chiragh Hasan Hasrat

aao husn-e-yaar ki baatein karein
zulf ki rukhsaar ki baatein karein

ghairon se kahaa tum ne ghairon se sunaa tum ne
kuchh ham se kahaa hotaa kuchh ham se sunaa hotaa

ummid to bandh jaati taskin to ho jaati
vaada na vafaa karte vaada to kiyaa hotaa

raat ki baat kaa mazkur hi kyaa
chhoDiye raat gai baat gai

qubul is baargah mein iltijaa koi nahin hoti
ilaahi yaa mujhi ko iltijaa karnaa nahin aataa

yaa-rab gham-e-hijraan mein itnaa to kiyaa hotaa
jo haath jigar par hai vo dast-e-duaa 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

ye saal tul-e-masaafat se chuur chuur gayaa
ye ek saal to guzraa hai ik sadi ki tarah

kisi ki yaad manaane mein iid guzregi
so shahr-e-dil mein bahut duur tak udaasi hai

aadat ke baa'd dard bhi dene lagaa mazaa
hans hans ke aah aah kiye jaa rahaa huun main
