pyaar karne bhi na paayaa thaa ki rusvaai mili — Iqbal Sajid

suraj huun chamakne kaa bhi haq chaahiye mujh ko
main kohr mein lipTaa huun shafaq chaahiye mujh ko

vo chaand hai to aks bhi paani mein aaegaa
kirdaar khud ubhar ke kahaani mein aaegaa

apni anaa ki aaj bhi taskin ham ne ki
ji bhar ke us ke husn ki tauhin ham ne ki

pyaaso raho na dasht mein baarish ke muntazir
maaro zamin pe paanv ki paani nikal paDe

ab tu darvaaze se apne naam ki takhti utaar
lafz nange ho gae shohrat bhi gaali ho gai

suraj huun zindagi ki ramaq chhoD jaaungaa
main Duub bhi gayaa to shafaq chhoD jaaungaa

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

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

ishq udaasi ke paighaam to laataa rahtaa hai din raat
lekin ham ko khush rahne ki aadat bahut ziyaada hai

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

ilaahi ek gham-e-rozgaar kyaa kam thaa
ki ishq bhej diyaa jaan-e-mubtalaa ke liye
