yaar tum ko kahaan kahaan DhunDaa — Fahmi Badayuni

kaash vo raaste mein mil jaae
mujh ko munh pher kar guzarnaa hai

khuun pilaa kar jo sher paalaa thaa
us ne circus mein naukri kar li

pareshaan hai vo jhuTaa ishq kar ke
vafaa karne ki naubat aa gai hai

Tahalte phir rahe hain saare ghar mein
tiri khaali jagah ko bhar rahe hain

aaj paivand ki zarurat hai
ye sazaa hai rafu na karne ki

puchh lete vo bas mizaaj miraa
kitnaa aasaan thaa ilaaj miraa

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

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

kaabe ko jaataa kis liye hindostaan se main
kis but mein shahr-e-hind ke shaan-e-khudaa na thi

baat karnaa pyaar ki aasaan se aasaan hai
ishq karnaa karte rahnaa hai kaThin se bhi kaThin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost
