kucha-e-ishq mein nikal aayaa — Jigar Moradabadi

ik lafz-e-mohabbat kaa adnaa ye fasaanaa hai
simTe to dil-e-aashiq phaile to zamaana hai

aatish-e-ishq vo jahannam hai
jis mein firdaus ke nazaare hain

aadat ke baa'd dard bhi dene lagaa mazaa
hans hans ke aah aah kiye jaa rahaa huun main

meri nigaah-e-shauq bhi kuchh kam nahin magar
phir bhi tiraa shabaab tiraa hi shabaab hai

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

un kaa jo farz hai vo ahl-e-siyaasat jaanein
meraa paighaam mohabbat hai jahaan tak pahunche

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

lailaa chali thi haj ke liye jazb-e-ishq se
naaqa machal ke najd ki manzil mein rah gayaa

ab ki jo raah-e-mohabbat mein uThaai taklif
sakht hoti hamein manzil kabhi aisi to na thi

Thahri thi ghizaa apni jo gham ishq-e-butaan mein
so aah hamaari hamein khuraak ne khaayaa

khaae so pachhtaae aur pachhtaae vo bhi jo na khaae
ye gham-e-ishq-e-butaan laDDu hai goyaa bor kaa
