zinda rahne ke the jitne uslub — Sadique Naseem

jab bhi tiri qurbat ke kuchh imkaan nazar aae
ham khush hue itne ki pareshaan nazar aae

tumhaaraa naam kisi ajnabi ke lab par thaa
zaraa si baat thi dil ko magar lagi hai bahut

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

apni to is chaman mein nit umr yunhi guzri
yaan aashiyaan banaayaa vaan aashiyaan banaayaa

meraa jiinaa hai sej kaanTon ki
un ke marne kaa naam taaj-mahal

ye zindagi hai apni kabhi khush kabhi udaas
is kashmakash se mujh ko khudaayaa rihaai de
