kisi ke sitam is qadar yaad aae — Bismil Saeedi

husn bhi kambakht kab khaali hai soz-e-ishq se
shama bhi to raat bhar jalti hai parvaane ke saath

dohraai jaa sakegi na ab daastaan-e-ishq
kuchh vo kahin se bhuul gae hain kahin se ham

tum jab aate ho to jaane ke liye aate ho
ab jo aa kar tumhein jaanaa ho to aanaa bhi nahin

sukun nasib huaa ho kabhi jo tere baghair
khudaa kare ki mujhe tu kabhi nasib na ho

ro rahaa huun aaj main saare jahaan ke saamne
roegaa kal dekhnaa saaraa jahaan mere liye

kaabe mein musalmaan ko kah dete hain kaafir
but-khaane mein kaafir ko bhi kaafar nahin kahte

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

kisi ki yaad manaane mein iid guzregi
so shahr-e-dil mein bahut duur tak udaasi hai

aadhi se ziyaada shab-e-gham kaaT chukaa huun
ab bhi agar aa jaao to ye raat baDi hai

tu jafaaon se jo badnaam kiye jaataa hai
yaad aaegi tujhe meri vafaa mere baad

ye ilm kaa saudaa ye risaale ye kitaabein
ik shakhs ki yaadon ko bhulaane ke liye hain

aataa rahaa huun yaad main us ko tamaam umr
is zaaviye se ishq mein naakaam kab huaa
