hasratein le gae is bazm se chalne vaale — Dagh Dehlvi

hazrat-e-'daagh' hai ye kucha-e-qaatil uThiye
jis jagah baiThte hain aap to jam jaate hain

dil hi to hai na aae kyuun dam hi to hai na jaae kyuun
ham ko khudaa jo sabr de tujh saa hasin banaae kyuun

baad muddat ke ye ai 'daagh' samajh mein aayaa
vahi daanaa hai kahaa jis ne na maanaa dil kaa

na ronaa hai tariqe kaa na hansnaa hai saliqe kaa
pareshaani mein koi kaam ji se ho nahin saktaa

sar miraa kaaT ke pachhtaaiyegaa
jhuTi phir kis ki qasam khaaiyegaa

kal tak to aashnaa the magar aaj ghair ho
do din mein ye mizaaj hai aage ki khair ho

miri tamannaa hai ab ke tum phir milo to ji bhar ke muskuraaein
ki dekhnaa hai ye raushni kaa safar bahut der baa'd jaa kar

chhalak uThaa jo kabhi khun-e-aarzu meraa
mizha mizha tiri raanaaiyon ki baat gai

kabhi kabhi chup ho jaane ki khvaahish hoti hai
aaise mein jab tir-e-sitam ki baarish hoti hai

lagtaa hai zinda rahne ki hasrat gai nahin
mar ke bhi saans lene ki aadat gai nahin

Tapak ke dida-e-nam se sadaaein detaa hai
jo ek harf-e-tamannaa dil-e-tabaah mein thaa

naakaam hasraton ke sivaa kuchh nahin rahaa
duniyaa mein ab dukhon ke sivaa kuchh nahin rahaa
