ye kaarobaar-e-mohabbat hai tum na samjhoge — Sabir

ham us ki khaatir bachaa na paaeinge umr apni
fuzul-kharchi ki ham ko aadat si ho gai hai

fasl boi bhi ham ne kaaTi bhi
ab na kahnaa zamin banjar hai

us ke shar se main sadaa maangtaa rahtaa huun panaah
isi duniyaa se mohabbat bhi balaa ki hai mujhe

hans hans ke us se baatein kiye jaa rahe ho tum
'saabir' vo dil mein aur hi kuchh sochtaa na ho

tire tasavvur ki dhuup oDhe khaDaa huun chhat par
mire liye sardiyon kaa mausam zaraa alag hai

chilchilaati-dhup thi lekin thaa saaya ham-qadam
saaebaan ki chhaanv ne mujh ko akelaa kar diyaa

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

tamaam jism ko aankhein banaa ke raah tako
tamaam khel mohabbat mein intizaar kaa hai

tum mohabbat ko khel kahte ho
ham ne barbaad zindagi kar li

yaa ilaahi is dil-e-betaab ki taamir mein
kis ne patthar rakh diyaa thaa ishq ki buniyaad kaa

apne dushman ko bhi mohabbat de
ishq ke daaere ko vusat de
