jab mohabbat kaa naam suntaa huun — 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

na aae maut khudaayaa tabaah-haali mein
ye naam hogaa gham-e-rozgaar sah na sakaa

muskuraa kar Daal di rukh par naqaab
mil gayaa jo kuchh ki milnaa thaa javaab

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

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

ham to apnon se bhi begaana hue ulfat mein
tum jo ghairon se mile tum ko na ghairat aai

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain

pichhaa kisi tarah ye miraa chhoDtaa nahin
haathon se ishq ke koi jaave kahaan nikal

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