phir laai hai barsaat tiri yaad kaa mausam — Sabir Dutt

ye kaisi siyaasat hai mire mulk pe haavi
insaan ko insaan se judaa dekh rahaa huun

ji bhar ke tumhein dekh luun taskin ho kuchh to
mat shama bujhaao ki abhi raat bahut hai

log karte hain khvaab ki baatein
ham ne dekhaa hai khvaab aankhon se

zulf ki shaam subh chehre ki
yahi mausam janaab de diije

rukh un kaa kahin aur nazar aur taraf hai
kis samt se aati hai qazaa dekh rahaa huun

muddaton baad uThaae the puraane kaaghaz
saath tere miri tasvir nikal aai hai

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

sayyaad teraa ghar mujhe jannat sahi magar
jannat se bhi sivaa mujhe raahat chaman mein thi

phir mujhe dida-e-tar yaad aayaa
dil jigar tishna-e-fariyaad aayaa

tum se chhuT kar bhi tumhein bhulnaa aasaan na thaa
tum ko hi yaad kiyaa tum ko bhulaane ke liye

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