mohabbat mein vafaa ki had jafaa ki intihaa kaisi — Mubarak Azimabadi

dil lagaate hi to kah deti hain aankhein sab kuchh
aise kaamon ke bhi aaghaaz kahin chhupte hain

kuchh is andaaz se sayyaad ne aazaad kiyaa
jo chale chhuT ke qafas se vo giraftaar chale

tiri adaa ki qasam hai tiri adaa ke sivaa
pasand aur kisi ki hamein adaa na hui

tum ko samjhaae 'mubaarak' koi kyunkar afsos
tum to rone lage yaar aur bhi samjhaane se

miri khaak bhi uDegi baa-adab tiri gali mein
tire aastaan se unchaa na miraa ghubaar hogaa

rahne de apni bandagi zaahid
be-mohabbat khudaa nahin miltaa

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

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

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

uThaa sakte nahin jab chuum kar hi chhoDnaa achchhaa
mohabbat kaa ye patthar is dafa bhaari ziyaada hai

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

sajda-e-ishq pe tanqid na kar ai vaaiz
dekh maathe pe abhi chaand numaayaan hogaa
