hazaar baar kiyaa azm-e-tark-e-nazzaara — Moin Ahsan Jazbi

tu aur gham-e-ulfat 'jazbi' mujh ko to yaqin aae na kabhi
jis qalb pe TuuTe hon patthar us qalb mein nashtar TuuT gae

jab tujh ko tamannaa meri thi tab mujh ko tamannaa teri thi
ab tujh ko tamannaa ghair ki hai to teri tamannaa kaun kare

jab kabhi kisi gul par ik zaraa nikhaar aayaa
kam-nigaah ye samjhe mausam-e-bahaar aayaa

us ne is tarah mohabbat ki nigaahein Daalin
ham se duniyaa kaa koi raaz chhupaayaa na gayaa

— Moin Ahsan Jazbi

dil mein na ho jurat to mohabbat nahin milti
khairaat mein itni baDi daulat nahin milti

chaahte hain so aap karein hain ham ko abas badnaam kiyaa

un ne to tegh khinchi thi par ji chalaa ke 'mir'
ham ne bhi ek dam mein tamaashaa dikhaa diyaa

ghalati-haa-e-mazaamin mat puchh
log naale ko rasaa baandhte hain

vagarna kis mein thi taab-o-taaqat jo us se aa kar kalaam kartaa
