tashhir to maqsud nahin qissa-e-dil ki — Ambareen Haseeb Ambar

jo tum ho to ye kaise maan luun main
ki jo kuchh hai yahaan bas ik gumaan hai

duniyaa to ham se haath milaane ko aai thi
ham ne hi eatibaar dobaara nahin kiyaa

is aarzi duniyaa mein har baat adhuri hai
har jiit hai laa-haasil har maat adhuri hai

ham to sunte the ki mil jaate hain bichhDe hue log
tu jo bichhDaa hai to kyaa vaqt ne gardish nahin ki

faisla bichhaDne kaa kar liyaa hai jab tum ne
phir miri tamannaa kyaa phir miri ijaazat kyuun

taalluq jo bhi rakkho soch lenaa
ki ham rishta nibhaanaa jaante hain

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

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

main badalte hue haalaat mein Dhal jaataa huun
dekhne vaale adaakaar samajhte hain mujhe

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

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai
