ye arsh se aanaa to aaghaaz-e-mohabbat thaa — Mehr Zarreen

fanaa ke hosh fanaa hain hamaari vahshat se
vo honge aur ki jin par fanaa kaa zor chale

dil mein miri vahshat ne par jitne nikaale the
main ne unhein bal de kar zanjir banaai hai

basti mein bhi kuchh aise andhere hain jahaan par
jhulse hue jismon kaa shabistaan hain saDkein

maqaam-e-aadmi kuchh kam nahin hai
farishton se to kam aadam nahin hai

raushan hai darakhshaan hai har ashk gharibon kaa
bas in ki badaulat hi har ghar mein divaali hai

aap jo chashm-tar ho gae
saare gham mo'atabar ho gae

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

jis ki havas ke vaaste duniyaa hui aziiz
vaapas hue to us ki mohabbat khafaa mili

ye baat baat pe zaahid jo TuuT jaataa hai
dil-e-hazin bhi hamaaraa tiraa vuzu kyaa hai

mere qaabu mein na pahron dil-e-naashaad aayaa
vo miraa bhulne vaalaa jo mujhe yaad aayaa

ziist mein jab nahin aati kisi 'unvaan pe hansi
aap apne dil-e-naakaam pe hans detaa huun
