rabt hai husn o ishq mein baaham — Mohammad Deen Taseer

vo mile to be-takalluf na mile to be-iraada
na tariq-e-aashnaai na rusum-e-jaam-o-baadaa

daavar-e-hashr miraa naama-e-aamaal na dekh
is mein kuchh parda-nashinon ke bhi naam aate hain

jis tarah ham ne raatein kaaTi hain
us tarah ham ne din guzaare hain

meri vafaaein yaad karoge
rooge fariyaad karoge

hamein bhi dekh ki ham aarzu ke sahraa mein
khile hue hain kisi zakhm-e-aarzu ki tarah

ye Dar hai qaafile vaalo kahin na gum kar de
miraa hi apnaa uThaayaa huaa ghubaar mujhe

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

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

tu kuchh to mire zabt-e-mohabbat kaa sila de
hangaam-e-'fanaa' dida-e-pur-nam ki tarah aa

kitni faraakh-dil huun main 'farah'-ji pyaar mein
hairat hai us ki chaah mein kitni niDar hui

aaghaaz to achchhaa thaa 'fanaa' din bhi bhale the
phir raas mujhe ishq kaa anjaam na aayaa
