kyaa kisi ummid par phir se dar-e-dil vaa karun — Shakeel Jazib

yahaan pe kuchh bhi nahin hai baaqi tu aks apnaa talaash mat kar
miri nigaahon ke aaine ab ghubaar-e-furqat se aT gae hain

mujh ko ataa huaa hai ye kaisaa libaas-e-zist
baDhte hain jis ke chaak baraabar rafu ke saath

us ki bhi miri tarah thi ik apni kahaani
us ko bhi nibhaanaa paDaa kirdaar mujhe bhi

kyaa karun ai tishnagi teraa mudaavaa bas vo lab
jin labon ko chhu ke paani aag bantaa jaae hai

yaaro duaa karo ye koi haadsa na ho
pahle yuun intizaar mein lazzat kabhi na thi

taaza vaarid huun miyaan aur ye shahr-e-dil hai
kuchh kamaane ko yahaan kaar-e-ziyaan DhunDtaa huun

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

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

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

dil-e-haris hi apnaa na ho sakaa qaane
vagarna tere karam mein to kuchh kami na rahi

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

main badalte hue haalaat mein Dhal jaataa huun
dekhne vaale adaakaar samajhte hain mujhe
