khud apni tajalli khud apni nigaahein — Raaz Muradabadi

vo kyaa chhuTe hayaat ke 'unvaan badal gae
duniyaa samajh rahi hai abhi ji rahaa huun main

dil ki be-kaifiyon ko kyaa kiije
fasl-e-gul hai magar bahaar nahin

khud kiyaa tark-e-ta'alluq ham se
khud hi ranjur hue jaate hain

allah-re iltifaat-o-nadaamat ki saazishein
nazrein milin talaafi-e-maafaat ho gai

rukte nahin hain paa-e-jihat-aashnaa kahin
manzil bhi ek sang-e-nishaan rah-guzar mein hai

miri samt manzil ko baDhte jo dekhaa
miraa saath chhoDaa mire rahnumaa ne

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

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

charchaa hamaaraa ishq ne kyuun jaa-ba-jaa kiyaa
dil us ko de diyaa to bhalaa kyaa buraa kiyaa
