jiinaa hai to ji leinge bahar-taur divaane — Zehra Nigaah

kahaan ke ishq-o-mohabbat kidhar ke hijr o visaal
abhi to log taraste hain zindagi ke liye

— Zehra Nigaah

jo dil ne kahi lab pe kahaan aai hai dekho
ab mahfil yaaraan mein bhi tanhaai hai dekho

— Zehra Nigaah

uTho ki jashn-e-khizaan ham manaaein ji bhar ke
bahaar aae gulistaan mein kab khudaa jaane

— Zehra Nigaah

koi hangaama sar-e-bazm uThaayaa jaae
kuchh kiyaa jaae charaaghon ko bujhaayaa jaae

— Zehra Nigaah

divaanon ko ab vusat-e-sahraa nahin darkaar
vahshat ke liye saaya-e-divaar bahut hai

— Zehra Nigaah

dekho vo bhi hain jo sab kah sakte the
dekho un ke munh par taale ab bhi hain

— Zehra Nigaah

ye aansu ponchh lijiye aur muskuraaiye
chaara nahin hai koi bhi rukhsat kiye baghair

— Nasim Zahid

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

— Khumar Barabankavi

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

— Mir Taqi Mir

ham haal to kah sakte hain apnaa pa kahein kyaa
jab vo idhar aate hain to tanhaa nahin aate

— Nazeer Akbar Abadi

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

— Saifuddin Saif

main ne apni palkon par gham-kade sajaae hain
aarzu ke maatam mein sogvaar hasti hai

— Hanif Fauq
