ham se vaaiz ne baat ki hoti — Ziauddin Ahmad Shakeb

divaana-e-justuju ho gayaa chaand
baadal se gir ke kho gayaa chaand

isi tarah baatein kiye jaaiye
ye tarz-e-takallum bahut khuub hai

meri tajviz par khafaa kyuun ho
baat kuchh aql ke khilaaf nahin

hamein bhi zarurat thi ik shakhs ki
ye husn-e-tasaadum bahut khuub hai

paDti nahin hai dil pe tire husn ki kiran
kis samt mere chaand darakhshaan hai aaj-kal

mukhtasar baat-chit achchhi hai
lekin itnaa bhi ikhtisaar na kar

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

umr bhar kaun nibhaataa hai ta'alluq itnaa
ai miri jaan ke dushman tujhe allaah rakkhe

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

umr hi teri guzar jaaegi un ke hal mein
teraa bachcha jo savaalaat liye baiThaa hai

zindagi ai zindagi!! aa do ghaDi mil kar rahein
tujh se meraa umr-bhar kaa to koi jhagDaa na thaa
