aariz pe tere meri mohabbat ki surkhiyaan — Khalilur Rahman Azmi

teri gali se chhuT ke na jaa-e-amaan mili
ab ke to meraa ghar bhi miraa ghar na ho sakaa

jaane kyuun ik khayaal saa aayaa
main na hungaa to kyaa kami hogi

tiri vafaa mein mili aarzu-e-maut mujhe
jo maut mil gai hoti to koi baat bhi thi

azal se thaa vo hamaare vajud kaa hissa
vo ek shakhs ki jo ham pe mehrbaan huaa

tere na ho sake to kisi ke na ho sake
ye kaarobaar-e-shauq mukarrar na ho sakaa

tamaam yaadein mahak rahi hain har ek ghuncha khilaa huaa hai
zamaana biitaa magar gumaan hai ki aaj hi vo judaa huaa hai

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

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

sau fasaad ek ishq mein uTThe
boyaa ik tukhm uge hazaar darakht

nahin vo sham-e-mohabbat rahi to phir 'aasim'
ye kis duaa se mire ghar mein raushni si hai

kisi se ishq apnaa kyaa chhupaaein
mohabbat Tapki paDti hai nazar se

raaz-e-gham-e-ulfat ko ye duniyaa na samajh le
aansu mire daaman mein tumhaare bhi mile hain
