jaate ho khudaa-haafiz haan itni guzaarish hai — 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

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

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

us ke kamre se uThaa laayaa huun yaadein apni
khud paDaa rah gayaa lekin kisi almaari mein

ik vahi shakhs mujh ko yaad rahaa
jis ko samjhaa thaa bhuul jaaungaa

naam meraa yaad karke chuskiyon ke biich mein
kyaa hui hai chaae ke cup mein tire halchal kabhi

kabhi kabhi tu mujhe yaad kar to leti hai
sukun itnaa saa kaafi hai zindagi ke liye
