haan ai gham-e-ishq mujh ko pahchaan — Shohrat Bukhari

ye kis azaab mein chhoDaa hai tu ne is dil ko
sukun yaad mein teri na bhulne mein qaraar

kuchh aisaa dhuaan hai ki ghuTTi jaati hain saansein
is raat ke baa'd aaoge shaayad na kabhi yaad

ham-safar ho to koi apnaa-saa
chaand ke saath chaloge kab tak

har samt falak-bos pahaaDon ki qataarein
'khusrav' hai na 'shirin' hai na tesha hai na farhaad

jab tujhe bhulnaa chaahaa dil ne
ik nae gham ki sazaa di ham ne

parde mein khamoshi ke burqe mein udaasi ke
shaayad koi aa jaae darvaaza khulaa rakhnaa

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

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

dil-e-sad-chaak miraa raah yahaan kab paae
kucha-e-zulf mein phirtaa hai tire shaana kharaab

gham siin ahl-e-bait ke ji to tiraa kuDhtaa nahin
yuun abas paDhtaa phiraa jo marsiya to kyaa huaa
