ham kyaa karein savaal ye sochaa nahin abhi — 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

jinhein ye fikr nahin sar rahe rahe na rahe
vo sach hi kahte hain jab bolne pe aate hain

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

junun hotaa hai chhaa jaati hai hairat
kamaal-e-aql ik divaana-pan hai

pau phaTte hi 'riyaaz' jahaan khuld ban gayaa
ghilmaan-e-mahr saath liye aai hur-e-subh

fikr zehni sukun chaahti hai
shaa'iri dil kaa khuun chaahti hai

havaa-e-zulm sochti hai kis bhanvar mein aa gai
vo ik diyaa bujhaa to sainkaDon diye jalaa gayaa
