'ehsaan' apnaa koi bure vaqt kaa nahin — Ehsan Danish Kandhlvi

kuchh log jo savaar hain kaaghaz ki naav par
tohmat taraashte hain havaa ke dabaav par

tum saada-mizaaji se miTe phirte ho jis par
vo shakhs to duniyaa mein kisi kaa bhi nahin hai

main hairaan huun ki kyuun us se hui thi dosti apni
mujhe kaise gavaara ho gai thi dushmani apni

log yuun dekh ke hans dete hain
tu mujhe bhuul gayaa ho jaise

shorish-e-ishq mein hai husn baraabar kaa sharik
soch kar jurm-e-tamannaa ki sazaa do ham ko

kis kis ki zabaan rokne jaaun tiri khaatir
kis kis ki tabaahi mein tiraa haath nahin hai

phir usi bevafaa pe marte hain
phir vahi zindagi hamaari hai

zaahid tiraa to diin saraasar fareb hai
rishte se tere subha ke zunnaar hi bhalaa

sab se baDaa fareb hai khud zindagi 'adaa'
is hila-ju ke saath hain ham bhi bahaana-saaz

dil ke aaine mein jab aap ki surat dekhi
jis ko dhokaa main samajhtaa thaa vo dhokaa bhi gayaa

zakhm bhi ab hasin lagte hain
tere haathon fareb khaane par

baDe vasuq se duniyaa fareb deti rahi
baDe khulus se ham e'tibaar karte rahe
