bahut kaam lene hain dard-e-jigar se — Qabil Ajmeri

rang-e-mahfil chaahtaa hai ik mukammal inqalaab
chand shamon ke bhaDakne se sahar hoti nahin

raasta hai ki kaTtaa jaataa hai
faasla hai ki kam nahin hotaa

ab ye aalam hai ki gham ki bhi khabar hoti nahin
ashk bah jaate hain lekin aankh tar hoti nahin

ham badalte hain rukh havaaon kaa
aae duniyaa hamaare saath chale

tum na maano magar haqiqat hai
ishq insaan ki zarurat hai

vaqt kartaa hai parvarish barson
haadisa ek dam nahin hotaa

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

ek ik lamhe mein jab sadiyon ki sadiyaan kaT gaiin
aisi kuchh raatein bhi guzri hain miri tere baghair

ashk-e-gham-e-ulfat mein ik raaz-e-nihaani hai
pi jaao to amrit hai bah jaae to paani hai

farq jo kuchh hai vo mutrib mein hai aur saaz mein hai
varna naghma vahi har parda-e-aavaaz mein hai
