ab to ehsaas-e-tamannaa bhi nahin — Sahir Hoshiyarpuri

ham qarib aa kar aur duur hue
apne apne nasib hote hain

hui thi khvaab mein khushbu si mahsus
tum aae khvaab ki taabir dekhi

ham ko aghyaar kaa gilaa kyaa hai
zakhm khaaein hain ham ne yaaron se

phir kisi bevafaa ki yaad aai
phir kisi ne liyaa vafaa kaa naam

jab bigaDte hain baat baat pe vo
vasl ke din qarib hote hain

kaun kahtaa hai mohabbat ki zabaan hoti hai
ye haqiqat to nigaahon se bayaan hoti hai

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

phir mujhe dida-e-tar yaad aayaa
dil jigar tishna-e-fariyaad aayaa

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

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