zamaana yaad kare yaa sabaa kare khaamosh — Nushur Wahidi

duniyaa ki bahaaron se aankhein yuun pher liin jaane vaalon ne
jaise koi lambe qisse ko paDhte paDhte uktaa jaae

hazaar shama farozaan ho raushni ke liye
nazar nahin to andheraa hai aadmi ke liye

khaak aur khuun se ik shama jalaai hai 'nushur'
maut se ham ne bhi sikhi hai hayaat-aaraai

diyaa khaamosh hai lekin kisi kaa dil to jaltaa hai
chale aao jahaan tak raushni maalum hoti hai

sarak kar aa gaiin zulfein jo in makhmur aankhon tak
main ye samjhaa ki mai-khaane pe badli chhaai jaati hai

aghyaar ko gul-pairahani ham ne ataa ki
apne liye phulon kaa kafan ham ne banaayaa

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

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain

pichhaa kisi tarah ye miraa chhoDtaa nahin
haathon se ishq ke koi jaave kahaan nikal

ai dil-e-shikva-sanj kyaa guzri
kis liye honT rah gae sil ke
