vo mere bakht ki tahrir kyuun nahin bantaa — Farhat Abbas

zalzalon ki numud se 'farhat'
mustaqar mustaqar nahin rahte

tum use le chalo lab-e-kausar
ai farishto ye karbalaai hai

donon laazim hain laa-zavaal bhi hain
ik tiraa husn ik miraa ye ishq

tere saanche mein Dhal gayaa aakhir
shahr saaraa badal gayaa aakhir

jise bhi dost banaayaa vo ban gayaa dushman
ye ham ne kaun si taqsir ki sazaa paai

baat ahl-e-junun ki kyaa samjhe
vo khirad jo kaDe ziyaan mein hai

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

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi

afsos umr kaT gai ranj-o-malaal mein
dekhaa na khvaab mein bhi jo kuchh thaa khayaal mein

balaa-e-jaan thi jo bazm-e-tamaashaa chhoD di main ne
khushaa ai zindagi khvaabon ki duniyaa chhoD di main ne

andheri shab kaa ye khvaab-manzar mujhe ujaalon se bhar rahaa hai
to raat itni tavil kar de ki taa-qayaamat sahar na aae

mat bakht-e-khufta par mire hans ai raqib tu
hogaa tire nasib bhi ye khvaab dekhnaa
