ham ko aghyaar kaa gilaa kyaa hai — 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

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

aakhir taDap taDap ke ye khaamosh ho gayaa
dil ko sukun mil hi gayaa iztiraab mein

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

ye vaqt kaifiyaat se bhartaa nahin kabhi
ye jaam ikhtiyaar nahin kar rahaa huun main

zindagi sundar ghazal hai dosto
zindagi ko gungunaanaa chaahiye

saadgi o purkaari be-khudi o hushyaari
husn ko taghaaful mein jurat-aazmaa paayaa

main ab har shakhs se uktaa chukaa huun
faqat kuchh dost hain aur dost bhi kyaa

vo habib ho ki rahbar vo raqib ho ki rahzan
jo dayaar-e-dil se guzre use ham-kalaam kar lo
