meri nigaah-e-fikr mein 'anvar' — Anwar Sabri

uf vo maasum o hayaa-rez nigaahein jin par
qatl ke baad bhi ilzaam nahin aataa hai

main jo royaa un ki aankhon mein bhi aansu aa gae
husn ki fitrat mein shaamil hai mohabbat kaa mizaaj

tamaam umr qafas mein guzaar di ham ne
khabar nahin ki nasheman ki zindagi kyaa hai

vaqt jab karvaTein badaltaa hai
fitna-e-hashr saath chaltaa hai

jiine vaale tire baghair ai dost
mar na jaate to aur kyaa karte

zulmaton mein raushni ki justuju karte raho
zindagi bhar zindagi ki justuju karte raho

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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