ye raah-e-ishq hai aakhir koi mazaaq nahin — Dil Ayubi

ye dilchasp vaade ye rangin dilaase
ajab saazishein hain kahaan aa gayaa huun

is shahr mein to kuchh nahin rusvaai ke sivaa
ai 'dil' ye ishq le ke kidhar aa gayaa tujhe

lamha lamha mujhe viraan kiye detaa hai
bas gayaa mere tasavvur mein ye chehra kis kaa

phir marhala-e-khvaab-e-bahaaraan se guzar jaa
mausam hai suhaanaa to garebaan se guzar jaa

hasin hai shahr to ujlat mein kyuun guzar jaaein
junun-e-shauq use bhi nihaal kar jaaein

kahaan main abhi tak nazar aa sakaa huun
khudaa jaane kitni tahon mein chhupaa huun

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

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

main to miTTi ho rahaa thaa ishq mein lekin 'ataa'
aa gai mujh mein kahin se be-dimaaghi 'mir' ki

vo meri raah mein kaanTe bichhaae main lekin
usi ko pyaar karun us pe e'tibaar karun

tanhaai se bachaav ki surat nahin karun
mar jaaun kyaa kisi se mohabbat nahin karun
