vasvase Daste rahe ishq mein saanpon ki tarah — Asad Awan

khud-bakhud chhoD gae hain to chalo Thiik huaa
itne ahbaab kahaan ham se sanbhaale jaate

nit-nayaa tu ne zamaane mein kharidaa badlaa
tere kahne pe kahaan ham ne aqida badlaa

umr-bhar maan ki nasihat pe zamaane mein 'asad'
faatima-zehraa ke bachchon se vafaadaari ki

is mohabbat ne hamein joD diyaa aapas mein
varna ham donon kaa ik jaisaa aqida to na thaa

koi to dekhe miri bebasi mohabbat mein
main aap apni jahaan mein hansi uDaataa phirun

guzar na jaae ye mausam basant kaa mausam
banafsha phuul khile har taraf zamin ke liye

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

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

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

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

sau fasaad ek ishq mein uTThe
boyaa ik tukhm uge hazaar darakht
