khushnumaa manzar bhi sab dhundhle nazar aate hain yaar — Misdaque Azmi

faqat milnaa-milaanaa kam huaa hai
hamaari dosti TuuTi nahin hai

ghaar vaalon ki tarah niklaa hai vo kamre se aaj
us ko is duniyaa ki tabdili kaa andaaza nahin

ik tabassum kaa bharam aabaad honTon par kiye
ji rahe hain log apni apni viraani ke saath

ai mire munis o gham-khvaar mujhe marne de
baat ab hukm ki taamil tak aa pahunchi hai

barseingi aaj rahmatein aamad hai yaar ki
naayaab hain ye ghaDiyaan tire intizaar ki

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

yaar bhi raah ki divaar samajhte hain mujhe
main samajhtaa thaa mire yaar samajhte hain mujhe

ek khvaahish hai jo shaayad umr bhar puuri na ho
ek sapne se hamesha pyaar karnaa hai mujhe

raas aai hai na aaegi ye duniyaa lekin
rok rakkhaa hai mujhe kuuch ki tayyaari ne

ishq par ikhtiyaar hai kis kaa
faaeda pesh-o-pas mein kuchh bhi nahin
