kuchh is tarah ke bahaaron ne gul khilaae hain — Akhtar Muslimi

dehaat ke basne vaale to ikhlaas ke paikar hote hain
ai kaash nai tahzib ki rau shahron se na aati gaanv mein

mire dil pe haath rakh kar mujhe dene vaale taskin
kahin dil ki dhaDkanon se tujhe choT aa na jaae

ek hi anjaam hai ai dost husn o ishq kaa
shama bhi bujhti hai parvaanon ke jal jaane ke baad

fareb-khurda hai itnaa ki mere dil ko abhi
tum aa chuke ho magar intizaar baaqi hai

mere kirdaar mein muzmar hai tumhaaraa kirdaar
dekh kar kyuun miri tasvir khafaa ho tum log

di us ne mujh ko jurm-e-mohabbat ki vo sazaa
kuchh be-qusur log sazaa maangne lage

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

ai sanam tu vo kanhayyaa hai balaaein luun agar
baansuli ki tarah naalaan hon saraapaa ungliyaan

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

gul kiyaa jis ne vo thaa aur magar
shama ne shikva havaaon se kiyaa

gulaabon ke honTon pe lab rakh rahaa huun
use der tak sochnaa chaahtaa huun
