lutf-e-jafaa isi mein hai yaad-e-jafaa na aae phir — Hadi Machlishahri

uThne ko to uThaa huun mahfil se tiri lekin
ab dil ko ye dhaDkaa hai jaaun to kidhar jaaun

ab vo piiri mein kahaan ahd-e-javaani ki umang
rang maujon kaa badal jaaataa hai saahil ke qarib

gham-e-dil ab kisi ke bas kaa nahin
kyaa davaa kyaa duaa kare koi

ghazab hai ye ehsaas vaarastagi kaa
ki tujh se bhi khud ko bari chaahtaa huun

tum aziiz aur tumhaaraa gham bhi aziiz
kis se kis kaa gilaa kare koi

miraa vajud haqiqat miraa adam dhokaa
fanaa ki shakl mein sar-chashma-e-baqaa huun main

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

aadhi se ziyaada shab-e-gham kaaT chukaa huun
ab bhi agar aa jaao to ye raat baDi hai

ai chaman vaalo chaman mein yuun guzaaraa chaahiye
baaghbaan bhi khush rahe raazi rahe sayyaad bhi

tu jafaaon se jo badnaam kiye jaataa hai
yaad aaegi tujhe meri vafaa mere baad

aataa rahaa huun yaad main us ko tamaam umr
is zaaviye se ishq mein naakaam kab huaa
