jo maraa hai haadse mein miraa us se kyaa thaa rishta — Fay Seen Ejaz

hazaaron saal ki thi aag mujh mein
ragaDne tak main ik patthar rahaa thaa

ishq kiyaa to apni hi naadaani thi
varna duniyaa jaan ki dushman kab hoti hai

kaise aataa hai dabe paanv gunaahon kaa khayaal
kitni khaamoshi se darvaaza khulaa thaa pahle

main ne dekhaa hai vo insaan tumhaare andar
raam ban jaaoge raavan to nahin ban sakte

kis anmol pashemaani ki daulat hai in aaankhon mein
palkon par do aansu jhamkein moti ke se daane do

achchhi-khaasi rusvaai kaa sabab hoti hai
dusri aurat pahli jaisi kab hoti hai

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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

kiyaa dard-o-gham ne mujhe naa-umid
ki majnun ko ye hi thiin bimaariyaan

vo dard huun koi chaara nahin hai jis kaa kahin
vo zakhm huun ki hai dushvaar indimaal miraa

nur-e-sahar kahaan hai agar shaam-e-gham gai
kab iltifaat thaa ki jo khu-e-sitam gai
