vo jis kaa shauq hai khilte gulaab mal denaa — Kishwar Naheed

mardon ko sab ravaa pa hai aurat ko naaravaa
sharm-o-hayaa kaa shahr mein charchaa bhi hai ajab

hamein dekho hamaare paas baiTho ham se kuchh sikho
hamin ne pyaar maangaa thaa hamin ne daagh paae hain

us ko fursat bhi nahin mujh ko tamannaa bhi nahin
phir khalish kyaa hai ki rah rah ke vafaa DhunDhti hai

dil mein hai mulaaqaat ki khvaahish ki dabi aag
mehndi lage haathon ko chhupaa kar kahaan rakkhun

kuchh din to malaal us kaa haq thaa
bichhDaa to khayaal us kaa haq thaa

kaun jaane ki uDti hui dhuup bhi
kis taraf kaun si manzilon mein gai

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

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

gham se ham suukh jab hue lakDi
dosti kaa nihaal Daal kaaT

saath mere tere jo dukh thaa so pyaare aish thaa
jab siin tu bichhDaa hai tab siin aish sab gham ho gayaa
