samjheinge na aghyaar ko aghyaar kahaan tak — Zaheer Dehlvi

bujhaaun kyaa charaagh-e-subh-gaahi
mire ghar shaam honi hai sahar se

chaahat kaa jab mazaa hai ki vo bhi hon be-qaraar
donon taraf ho aag baraabar lagi hui

shirkat gunaah mein bhi rahe kuchh savaab ki
tauba ke saath toDiye botal sharaab ki

kuchh to hote hain mohabbat mein junun ke aasaar
aur kuchh log bhi divaana banaa dete hain

ishq hai ishq to ik roz tamaashaa hogaa
aap jis munh ko chhupaate hain dikhaanaa hogaa

ishq kyaa shai hai husn hai kyaa chiiz
kuchh idhar ki hai kuchh udhar ki aag

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

mushkil-e-ishq mein laazim hai tahammul 'saaqib'
baat bigDi hui banti nahin ghabraane se

mohabbat karne vaale dard mein tanhaa nahin hote
jo ruThoge kabhi mujh se to apnaa dil dukhaaoge

aataa rahaa huun yaad main us ko tamaam umr
is zaaviye se ishq mein naakaam kab huaa

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa
