sun ke saari daastaan-e-ranj-o-gham — Bekhud Dehlvi

vo kuchh muskuraanaa vo kuchh jheinp jaanaa
javaani adaaein sikhaati hain kyaa kyaa

raqibon ke liye achchhaa Thikaanaa ho gayaa paidaa
khudaa aabaad rakhe main to kahtaa huun jahannam ko

huron se na hogi ye mudaaraat kisi ki
yaad aaegi jannat mein mulaaqaat kisi ki

bole vo muskuraa ke bahut iltijaa ke baad
ji to ye chaahtaa hai tiri maan jaaiye

munh pher kar vo kahte hain bas maan jaaiye
is sharm is lihaaz ke qurbaan jaaiye

mohabbat aur majnun ham to saudaa is ko kahte hain
fidaa lailaa pe thaa aankhon kaa andhaa is ko kahte hain

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

ye aansu ponchh lijiye aur muskuraaiye
chaara nahin hai koi bhi rukhsat kiye baghair

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

ham haal to kah sakte hain apnaa pa kahein kyaa
jab vo idhar aate hain to tanhaa nahin aate

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

main ne apni palkon par gham-kade sajaae hain
aarzu ke maatam mein sogvaar hasti hai
