us kaa chehraa udaas hai 'maajid' — Hussain Majid

kahne ki to baat nahin hai lekin kahni paDti hai
dil ki nagri mein mat jaanaa jo jaae pachhtaae

logon ne aakaash se unchaa jaa kar tamghe paae
ham ne apnaa antar khojaa divaane kahlaae

kal jo main ne jhaank ke dekhaa us ki niili aankhon mein
us ke dil kaa zakhm to 'maajid' saagar se bhi gahraa hai

'maajid' khudaa ke vaaste kuchh der ke liye
ro lene de akelaa mujhe apne haal par

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

tujhe bhi dekh liyaa ham ne o khudaa-e-ajal
ki teraa zor chalaa bhi to ahl-e-gham pe chalaa

tum jo chaaho to mire dard kaa darmaan ho jaae
varna mushkil hai ki mushkil miri aasaan ho jaae

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