aap se mujh ko mohabbat jo nahin hai na sahi — Muztar Khairabadi

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

un kaa ik patlaa saa khanjar un kaa ik naazuk saa haath
vo to ye kahiye miri gardan khushi mein kaT gai

tum agar chaaho to miTTi se abhi paidaa hon phuul
main agar maangun to dariyaa bhi na de paani mujhe

zulf ko kyuun jakaD ke baandhaa hai
us ne bosa liyaa thaa gaal kaa kyaa

mire dil ne jhaTke uThaae hain kitne ye tum apni zulfon ke baalon se puchho
kaleje ki choTon ko main kyaa bataaun ye chhaati pe lahraane vaalon se puchho

bichhaDnaa bhi tumhaaraa jite-ji ki maut hai goyaa
use kyaa khaak lutf-e-zindagi jis se judaa tum ho

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

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

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

ishq udaasi ke paighaam to laataa rahtaa hai din raat
lekin ham ko khush rahne ki aadat bahut ziyaada hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

kahin ye tark-e-mohabbat ki ibtidaa to nahin
vo mujh ko yaad kabhi is qadar nahin aae
