udaasi kaa samundar dekh lenaa — Kafeel Aazar Amrohvi

jab se ik khvaab ki taabir mili hai mujh ko
main har ik khvaab ki taabir se ghabraataa huun

tum ko maahaul se ho jaaegi nafrat 'aazar'
itne nazdik se dekhaa na karo yaaron ko

koi manzil nahin milti to Thahar jaate hain
ashk aankhon mein musaafir ki tarah aate hain

jaate jaate ye nishaani de gayaa
vo miri aaankhon mein paani de gayaa

ek ik baat mein sachchaai hai us ki lekin
apne vaadon se mukar jaane ko ji chaahtaa hai

us ki aankhon mein utar jaane ko ji chaahtaa hai
shaam hoti hai to ghar jaane ko ji chaahtaa hai

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

nazar bachaa ke jo aansu kiye the main ne paak
khabar na thi yahi dhabbe baneinge daaman ke

bataa khud ko bhalaa kaise sanvaarun
mujhe gham aainon mein dikh rahaa hai

us pe qurbaan ki jis ne tiri aavaaz suni
sadqe us aankh ke jis ne tiraa jalva dekhaa
