taaaqub mein hai mere yaad kis ki — Kausar Mazhari

mausam-e-dil jo kabhi zard saa hone lag jaae
apnaa dil khuun karo phuul ugaane lag jaao

giraa thaa bojh koi sar se mere
usi ko phir uThaanaa chaahtaa huun

vahi qatra jo kabhi kunj-e-sar-e-chashm mein thaa
ab jo phailaa hai to sailaab huaa jaataa hai

jaane kis khvaab-e-pareshaan kaa hai chakkar saaraa
bikhraa bikhraa huaa rahtaa hai miraa ghar saaraa

nazar jhuk rahi hai khamoshi hai lab par
hayaa hai adaa hai ki an-ban hai kyaa hai

putliyon par raqs karnaa hi kalaam-e-fan nahin
dard ke aansu ko to paiham ravaani chaahiye

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

kuchh yaadgaar-e-shahr-e-sitamgar hi le chalein
aae hain is gali mein to patthar hi le chalein

ai shab-e-hijraan ziyaada paanv phailaati hai kyuun
bhar gayaa jitnaa hamaari umr kaa paimaana thaa

buton ke saath li di si jo yaad-allaah baaqi hai
to kyaa shaikh-e-haram tere liye main chhoD duun vo bhi

sach hai 'nizaam' yaad bhi us ko na honge ham
par kyaa karein vo ham se bhulaayaa na jaaegaa

denaa vo us kaa saaghar-e-mai yaad hai 'nizaam'
munh pher kar idhar ko udhar ko baDhaa ke haath
