na aae maut khudaayaa tabaah-haali mein — Moin Ahsan Jazbi

tu aur gham-e-ulfat 'jazbi' mujh ko to yaqin aae na kabhi
jis qalb pe TuuTe hon patthar us qalb mein nashtar TuuT gae

muskuraa kar Daal di rukh par naqaab
mil gayaa jo kuchh ki milnaa thaa javaab

jab tujh ko tamannaa meri thi tab mujh ko tamannaa teri thi
ab tujh ko tamannaa ghair ki hai to teri tamannaa kaun kare

jab kabhi kisi gul par ik zaraa nikhaar aayaa
kam-nigaah ye samjhe mausam-e-bahaar aayaa

mile mujh ko gham se fursat to sunaaun vo fasaana
ki Tapak paDe nazar se mai-e-ishrat-e-shabaana

us ne is tarah mohabbat ki nigaahein Daalin
ham se duniyaa kaa koi raaz chhupaayaa na gayaa

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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

dard mein lazzat bahut ashkon mein raanaai bahut
ai gham-e-hasti hamein duniyaa pasand aai bahut

ye zindagi hai apni kabhi khush kabhi udaas
is kashmakash se mujh ko khudaayaa rihaai de

Thahri thi ghizaa apni jo gham ishq-e-butaan mein
so aah hamaari hamein khuraak ne khaayaa
