aataa rahaa huun yaad main us ko tamaam umr — Sardar Asif

koi shikva nahin ham ko kisi se
khud apni zaat ham ko chhal rahi hai

ye kaise marhale mein phans gayaa hai meraa ghar maalik
agar chhat ko bachaa bhi luun to phir divaar jaati hai

sunaa hai dhuup ko ghar lauTne ki jaldi hai
vo aaj vaqt se pahle hi shaam kar degi

main tujh se jhuk ke milaa huun magar ye dhyaan rahe
baDaa nahin huun magar tujh se qad mein kam bhi nahin

ghazal kahne mein yuun to koi dushvaari nahin hoti
magar ik masala ye hai ki meyaari nahin hoti

main khud ko dekhun agar dusre ki aankhon se
mileingi khaamiyaan apne hi shah-kaaron mein

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

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

'nabil' is ishq mein tum jiit bhi jaao to kyaa hogaa
ye aisi jiit hai pahlu mein jis ke haar chalti hai

shaaeri ishq gham rizq kitaabein ghar-baar
kitni samton mein ba-yak-vaqt guzar hai meraa

meri miTTi mein mohabbat hi mohabbat hai 'nabil'
chhu ke dekho to sahi haath lagaao to sahi
