ulTi ik haath se naqaab un ki — Jaleel Manikpuri

aaj hai vo bahaar kaa mausam
phuul toDun to haath jaam aae

pyaari surat vo haae kyaa hogi
jis ko be-dekhe pyaar aataa hai

sote mein vo jo mujh se ham-aaghosh ho gae
jitne gile the khvaab-e-faraamosh ho gae

tazkira soz-e-mohabbat kaa kiyaa thaa ik baar
taa-dam-e-marg zabaan se miri chhaale na gae

mohabbat ek taraf se mazaa nahin deti
kuchh iztiraab tujhe ho kuchh iztiraab mujhe

jo tire ishq mein tabaah huaa
koi us ko tabaah kar na sakaa

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

ghar mein saamaan to ho dilchaspi kaa
haadsa koi uThaa le jaaun

liyaa main bosa ba-zor us sipaahi-zaade kaa
azizo ab bhi miri kuchh dilaavari dekhi

kyaa kahein kyaa kyaa kiyaa teri nigaahon ne suluk
dil mein aaiin dil mein Thahrin dil mein paikaan ho gaiin

samjhaaein kis tarah dil-e-naa-kardaa-kaar ko
ye dosti samajhtaa hai dushman ke pyaar ko
