ghurbat bas ab tariq-e-mohabbat ko qata kar — Habeeb Moosavi

dil mein bhari hai khaak mein milne ki aarzu
khaakistari huaa hai hamaari qabaa kaa rang

zabaan par tiraa naam jab aa gayaa
to girte ko dekhaa sambhalte hue

taalib-e-bosa huun main qaasid vo hain khvaahaan-e-jaan
ye zaraa si baat hai milte hi tai ho jaaegi

asal saabit hai vahi shara kaa ik parda hai
daane tasbih ke sab phirte hain zunnaaron par

naaseh ye vaaz-o-pand hai bekaar jaaegaa
ham se bhi baada-kash hain kahin paarsaa hue

bahut dinon mein vo aae hain vasl ki shab hai
moazzin aaj na yaarab uThe azaan ke liye

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

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

sau fasaad ek ishq mein uTThe
boyaa ik tukhm uge hazaar darakht

nahin vo sham-e-mohabbat rahi to phir 'aasim'
ye kis duaa se mire ghar mein raushni si hai

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin
