dosto tum se guzaarish hai yahaan mat aao — Javed Nasir

aahaT bhi agar ki to tah-e-zaat nahin ki
lafzon ne kai din se koi baat nahin ki

khulti hain aasmaan mein samundar ki khiDkiyaan
be-din raaston pe kahin apnaa ghar to hai

bahut udaas thaa us din magar huaa kyaa thaa
har ek baat bhali thi to phir buraa kyaa thaa

dasht ki dhuup hai jangal ki ghani raatein hain
is kahaani mein bahr haal kai baatein hain

raat aa jaae to phir tujh ko pukaarun yaa-rab
meri aavaaz ujaale mein bikhar jaati hai

khudaa aabaad rakkhe zindagi ko
hamaari khaamushi ko sah gai hai

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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

dard bakhshaa chain chhinaa dil ke TukDe kar diye
haae kis zaalim pe main ne bhi bharosa kar liyaa

paan ke Thele hotel logon kaa jamghaT
apne tanhaa hone kaa ehsaas bhi kyaa

sitam to ye hai ki main ne use bhi chhoD diyaa
jo sab ko chhoD ke tanhaa khaDaa hai mere saath
