apni urdu to mohabbat ki zabaan thi pyaare — Sada Ambalvi

zikr meraa aaegaa mahfil mein jab jab dosto
ro paDeinge yaad kar ke yaar sab yaari miri

vaqt har zakhm kaa marham to nahin ban saktaa
dard kuchh hote hain taa-umr rulaane vaale

bujh gai shama ki lau tere dupaTTe se to kyaa
apni muskaan se mahfil ko munavvar kar de

kyuun sadaa pahne vo teraa hi pasandida libaas
kuchh to mausam ke mutaabiq bhi sanvarnaa hai use

tum sitaaron ke bharose pe na baiThe rahnaa
apni tadbir se taqdir banaate jaao

kitnaa sochaa thaa dil lagaaeinge
sochte sochte hayaat hui

bil-aakhir thak haar ke yaaro ham ne bhi taslim kiyaa
apni zaat se ishq hai sachchaa baaqi sab afsaane hain

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

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

baat karnaa pyaar ki aasaan se aasaan hai
ishq karnaa karte rahnaa hai kaThin se bhi kaThin

hamaaraa ishq ravaan hai rukaavaTon mein 'zafar'
ye khvaab hai kisi divaar se nahin ruktaa
