baat aati hai doston ki jab — Meem Maroof Ashraf

kisi ke yaad karne kaa agar hoti sabab hichki
miraa mahbub ho kar ke pareshaan mar gayaa hotaa

sochtaa huun kyaa miraa bantaa khudaa ke saamne
gar na hotaa yaa-rasulullah sahaaraa aap kaa

bahut aasaan lafzon mein ye us ne kah diyaa ham se
nahin tum se mohabbat jaao jo karnaa hai so kar lo

jab bhi chumaa hai tire honTon ko
jism se un ko judaa jaanaa hai

abhi to aur baDhegi ye tishnagi dil ki
abhi to aur bhi zyaada vo yaad aaeinge

main tum se duur rah kar kis tarah ye tum ko samjhaaun
ki mujh se duur rah kar kis qadar ho tum akeli

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

jo ghair the vo isi baat par hamaare hue
ki ham se dost bahut be-khabar hamaare hue

yaar bhi raah ki divaar samajhte hain mujhe
main samajhtaa thaa mire yaar samajhte hain mujhe

barseingi aaj rahmatein aamad hai yaar ki
naayaab hain ye ghaDiyaan tire intizaar ki
