koi tohfa na haar chaahtaa huun — Inder Saraazi

aakhiri umr tak rahegi yaad
raat main saath jis ke bhigaa thaa

aankhein maltaa rotaa chaand
dekho phir se niklaa chaand

baDi mushkil se bahlaayaa thaa khud ko
achaanak yaad teri aa gai phir

ab kisi kaam ke nahin ye rahe
dil vafaa ishq aur tanhaai

raaz-daan hote hain vo ghar aksar
jin gharon mein dhuaan nahin hotaa

abhi to mausam-e-khizaan hai ye
khileinge phuul bhi bahaar ke saath

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

buton mein koi bhalaai bhi hai sivaae sitam
buraa ho teraa dil-e-naa-sazaa kidhar aayaa

lo chaae mein bhi chaae ki patti nahin Daali
tum ko to mohabbat ke sivaa kuchh nahin aataa

pareshaan ho ke dil tark-e-taalluq par hai aamaada
mohabbat mein ye surat bhi na raas aai to kyaa hogaa

majnun milaa to puchhtaa thaa dasht-e-‘ishq mein
ab suntaa vaan hai mere fasaane bhi koi kyaa
