beTi ke saath maan mujhe taslim hai magar — Popular Meeruthi

dastakhat to tumhein bhi aate hain
abbaa tum bhi vazir ban jaate

khud tiis kaa hai aur dulhan saaTh baras ki
girti hui divaar ke saae mein khaDaa hai

be-vaqufi ke anokhe kaarnaame dekh kar
achchhe-khaase leaderon ko bhi gadhaa kahnaa paDaa

apni shohrat ki alag raah nikaali ham ne
kisi divaan se ghazal koi churaa li ham ne

teraa aadhaa kaam khud insaan hi karne lage
kaam teraa ab to ai shaitaan aadhaa rah gayaa

meraa sasuraal mein koi bhi taraf-daar nahin
un ke honTon pe bhi taale hain khudaa khair kare

ye aansu ponchh lijiye aur muskuraaiye
chaara nahin hai koi bhi rukhsat kiye baghair

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

main ne apni palkon par gham-kade sajaae hain
aarzu ke maatam mein sogvaar hasti hai

ham haal to kah sakte hain apnaa pa kahein kyaa
jab vo idhar aate hain to tanhaa nahin aate

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin
