alfaaz ki adaaegi tarz-e-bayaan siikh — Ahmad Alvi

kareinge aankh-maTakkaa vo kyaa paDosan se
jo log apni hi biivi ko Dar ke dekhte hain

do sagi bahnon ki do ganjon se shaadi ho gai
aur ye be-zulf bhi ham-zulf kahlaane lage

is se pahle udhaar tu maange
main tiraa shahr chhoD jaaungaa

main hi tum ko phuTi aankh nahin bhaati
tum ne sab se pyaar ke pech laDaae hain

jab se makaan badal gaiin donon paDosanein
lagtaa nahin hai ji miraa ujDe dayaar mein

dil ko kisi ki yaad se khaali na kijiye
aaseb rahne lagte hain khaali makaan mein

bil-aakhir thak haar ke yaaro ham ne bhi taslim kiyaa
apni zaat se ishq hai sachchaa baaqi sab afsaane hain

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

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

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

dil-e-haris hi apnaa na ho sakaa qaane
vagarna tere karam mein to kuchh kami na rahi
