us ne puchhaa ki mujhe gift mein kyaa doge tum — Aziz Faisal

ishq mein ye tafraqa-baazi bahut maayub hai
pyaar ko shiia vahaabi aur sunni mat samajh

das baara ghazliyaat jo rakhtaa hai jeb mein
bazm-e-sukhan mein hai vo nishaani vabaal ki

na ye qaanun kaam aayaa thaa raanjhe ke zaraa saa bhi
usi ko bhains milti hai ho jis ke haath mein laaThi

begam se kah rahaa thaa ye koi khalaa-navard
baiThi hui hai chaand pe ''guDiyaa'' mire liye

kitni mazaahiya hai ye botal ke jin ki baat
aaqaa ab inqalaab hai do chaar din ki baat

moarrikh likh na dein suqraat mujh ko
main lassi kaa piyaala pi rahaa huun

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

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

zaraa saa vaqt jo badlaa to ham pe hansne lage
hamaare kaandhe pe sar rakh ke rone vaale log

kyaa ghazab hai tajrabe ki bheinT tum hi chaDh gae
tum se hi sikhaa thaa ham ne dil dukhaane kaa hunar

bojh dil par hai nadaamat kaa to aisaa kar lo
mere siine se kisi aur bahaane lag jaao

mashhur ho chuki hai kisi ke labon ki baat
akhbaar-e-dil-baraan ki sabhi surkhiyaan paDho
