ham se kyaa ho sakaa mohabbat mein — Firaq Gorakhpuri

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein

kam se kam maut se aisi mujhe ummid nahin
zindagi tu ne to dhoke pe diyaa hai dhoka

bahut dinon mein mohabbat ko ye huaa maalum
jo tere hijr mein guzri vo raat raat hui

kisi kaa yuun to huaa kaun umr bhar phir bhi
ye husn o ishq to dhokaa hai sab magar phir bhi

jo uljhi thi kabhi aadam ke haathon
vo gutthi aaj tak suljhaa rahaa huun

chhuT ke ghar aa gae asiir tire
lekin ab in ko kaun pahchaane

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain

pichhaa kisi tarah ye miraa chhoDtaa nahin
haathon se ishq ke koi jaave kahaan nikal

aatish-e-ishq vo jahannam hai
jis mein firdaus ke nazaare hain
