tu ruke yaa na ruke faisla tujh par chhoDaa — Saadullah Shah

apni sochein safar mein rahti hain
us ko paane ki justuju dekho

mujh saa koi jahaan mein naadaan bhi na ho
kar ke jo ishq kahtaa hai nuqsaan bhi na ho

tum ne kaisaa ye raabta rakkhaa
na mile ho na faasla rakkhaa

tu na rusvaa ho is liye ham ne
apni chaahat pe daaera rakkhaa

aise lagtaa hai ki kamzor bahut hai tu bhi
jiit kar jashn manaane ki zarurat kyaa thi

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein
