itne fareb khaae hain qurbat mein yaar ki — Mohammad Daood Mohsin

kaun apnaa hai yahaan kaun paraayaa kahiye
kaun detaa hai bhalaa dukh mein sahaaraa kahiye

main chaahtaa huun tumhein apni zindagi ki tarah
mire vajud pe chhaa jaao chaandni ki tarah

har ek shaam sanvar jaaegi miri 'mohsin'
har ek baat tumhaari hai shaairi ki tarah

afsaana dard-o-gham kaa sunaayaa na jaaegaa
ab zakhm-e-dil kisi ko dikhaayaa na jaaegaa

nahin hai paas kisi kaa kisi ko ai 'mohsin'
ki aazmaa ki unhein baar baar dekhaa hai

zindagi TuuT ke bikhri hai sar-e-raah abhi
haadisa kahiye ise yaa ki tamaashaa kahiye

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

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

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

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

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