kis ne aabaad kiyaa hai miri viraani ko — Anjum Saleemi

dard se bhartaa rahaa zaat ke khaali-pan ko
thoDaa thoDaa yunhi bharpur kiyaa main ne mujhe

kaisi hoti hain udaasi ki jaDein
aa dikhaaun tujhe dil ke reshe

kisi tarah se nazar mutmain nahin hoti
har ek shai ko dobaara badal ke dekhtaa huun

Thiik se yaad bhi nahin ab to
ishq ne mujh mein kab qayaam kiyaa

barham hain mujh pe is liye donon taraf ke log
divaar uTh gai thi to dar kyuun banaayaa hai

patthar mein kaun jonk lagaaegaa mere dost
dil hai to mubtalaa bhi kahin honaa chaahiye

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

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

aakhiri baar mulaaqaat to kar li hai magar
silsila apni mohabbat kaa kahaan aakhiri hai

hamin se anjuman-e-ishq mo'tabar Thahri
hamin ko saunpi gai gham ki paasbaani bhi

filfil-e-khaal-e-malaahat ke tasavvur mein tire
charcharaahaT hai kabaab-e-dil-e-biryaan mein kyaa
