be-piye chain nahin hosh nahin jaan nahin — Jaleel Manikpuri

aaj hai vo bahaar kaa mausam
phuul toDun to haath jaam aae

pyaari surat vo haae kyaa hogi
jis ko be-dekhe pyaar aataa hai

sote mein vo jo mujh se ham-aaghosh ho gae
jitne gile the khvaab-e-faraamosh ho gae

tazkira soz-e-mohabbat kaa kiyaa thaa ik baar
taa-dam-e-marg zabaan se miri chhaale na gae

mohabbat ek taraf se mazaa nahin deti
kuchh iztiraab tujhe ho kuchh iztiraab mujhe

jo tire ishq mein tabaah huaa
koi us ko tabaah kar na sakaa

kyon tasavvur mein ji rahaa huun main
jab haqiqat mein mar hi jaanaa hai

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

ijz-o-niyaaz apnaa apni taraf hai saaraa
is musht-e-khaak ko ham masjud jaante hain

na jaane us ne khule aasmaan mein kyaa dekhaa
parinda phir se jahaan-e-qafas mein lauT aayaa

vo kuchh muskuraanaa vo kuchh jheinp jaanaa
javaani adaaein sikhaati hain kyaa kyaa

sab ke honTon pe munavvar hain hamaare qisse
aur ham apni kahaani bhi nahin jaante hain
