be-naam saa ye dard Thahar kyuun nahin jaataa — Nida Fazli

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

kuchh bhi bachaa na kahne ko har baat ho gai
aao kahin sharaab piyein raat ho gai

zaruri kyaa har ik mahfil mein baiThein
takalluf ki ravaa-daari se bachiye

ye kyaa azaab hai sab apne aap mein gum hain
zabaan mili hai magar ham-zabaan nahin miltaa

apne lahje ki hifaazat kijiye
sher ho jaate hain naa-maalum bhi

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

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

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

vo khvaab kyaa thaa ki jis ki hayaat hai taabir
vo jurm kyaa thaa ki jis ki sazaa hai tanhaai

mushkilein dil mein nai shamein jalaa deti hain
gham se bujh jaanaa to durveshon kaa dastur nahin
