ishq vo chaar su safar hai jahaan — Naeem Zarrar Ahmad

maan TuuTe to phir nahin juDtaa
bad-gumaani kabhi na aa ke gai

ishq tu bhi zaraa Tikaa le kamar
dil bhi ab so gayaa hai raat gae

main vo mahrum-e-inaayat huun ki jis ne tujh se
milnaa chaahaa to bichhaDne ki vabaa phuuT paDi

jitni aankhein thiin saari meri thiin
jitne manzar the sab tumhaare the

main khud ko saamne tere biThaa kar
khud apne se gila kartaa rahaa huun

yaa husn hai naa-vaaqif-e-pindaar-e-mohabbat
yaa ishq hi aasaani-e-atvaar mein gum hai

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

sun vasf-e-dahan dijiye kuchh munh se piyaare
mujh shaaer-e-muflis ki hai guzraan sile par

marnaa to bahut sahal si ik baat lage hai
jiinaa hi mohabbat mein karaamaat lage hai

ye kahnaa thaa un se mohabbat hai mujh ko
ye kahne mein mujh ko zamaane lage hain

ham ishq mein hain fard to tum husn mein yaktaa
ham saa bhi nahin ek jo tum saa nahin koi
