raasta hai ki kaTtaa jaataa hai — Qabil Ajmeri

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

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

kuchh der kisi zulf ke saae mein Thahar jaaein
'qaabil' gham-e-dauraan ki abhi dhuup kaDi hai

vaqt kartaa hai parvarish barson
haadisa ek dam nahin hotaa

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

yuun to maujud apne ghar mein hai
aadmi mustaqil safar mein hai

safar mein aise kai marhale bhi aate hain
har ek moD pe kuchh log chhuT jaate hain

miri tamannaa hai ab ke tum phir milo to ji bhar ke muskuraaein
ki dekhnaa hai ye raushni kaa safar bahut der baa'd jaa kar

yaar bhi raah ki divaar samajhte hain mujhe
main samajhtaa thaa mire yaar samajhte hain mujhe

kaisaa maqaam aayaa mohabbat ki raah mein
dil ro rahaa hai meraa magar aankh tar nahin
