har dard ko samjho tum meri zindagi ka hissa,
kabhi toot gaya, kabhi khud ko dhundh liya.
tere bina yahan sab khoon ki tarah beh raha hai,
meri raaton ka aalam deewane jaisa.
zindagi ki khatir jabse maine chhupa liya hai gham,
ab toh mera saath bhi khud hi tanha sa lagta hai.
tere isharon pe maine likh diya hai kalam se,
meri dastan ab teri mohabbat ki hai.
dil ke tukde hain ab bhi jalaate jalaate,
teri yaaden aati hain lekin tu kahan hai?
barish ki boondein lekin meri aankhon se jyada,
teri khudkushi ko samjha nahi maine.
tere sath ki raat chali jaye toh,
mera hisaab hai ki maine jeena sikha.
zindagi ne diye hain yun pal,
jaise khwaabon ka silsila.
tere bin ab yahan har safar adhoora sa lagta hai,
jaise koi shayari ke bich mein ruk gayi hai.
dil ki dhadkanon mein tera naam hai,
ab toh yeh bimar hai, par tu kahan hai?
tere liye maine chhupa liya har gham,
par tera saaya ab bhi mera saath hai,
kabhi yun bhi toh samjho,
meri mohabbat ki kahani.
tere bina yahan har khushi adhuri si,
jaise koi geet ke bich mein ruk gaya.
meri aankhon ki gehraiyon mein,
tere khayal ke chand chamakte hain.
tere isharon ka silsila,
meri zindagi ka aasaar hai.
tere saaye mein kho gaya hai ab meri parchhaiyan,
dil ki dhadkan bhi teri baahon ki gehraiyon mein.
barish ke boondein lekin dil ke tukde hain,
tere bina har safar adhoora sa lagta hai.
zindagi ki khatir maine chhupa liya gham,
par tera saaya ab bhi mera saath hai.
tere isharon ka silsila ab bhi jari hai,
meri raaton ka aalam deewane jaisa.
dil ki gehraiyon mein tera naam likha hai,
ab toh yeh bimar hai, par tu kahan hai?
tere bin yahan har khushi adhuri si,
jaise koi geet ke bich mein ruk gaya.
meri aankhon ki gehraiyon mein,
tere khayal ke chand chamakte hain.
tere bina yahan sab khoon ki tarah beh raha hai,
meri raaton ka aalam deewane jaisa.
har dard ko samjho tum meri zindagi ka hissa,
kabhi toot gaya, kabhi khud ko dhundh liya.
zindagi ne diye hain yun pal,
jaise khwaabon ka silsila.
tere liye maine chhupa liya har gham,
par tera saaya ab bhi mera saath hai.
tere sath ki raat chali jaye toh,
mera hisaab hai ki maine jeena sikha.
dil ke tukde hain ab bhi jalaate jalaate,
teri yaaden aati hain lekin tu kahan hai?
barish ki boondein lekin meri aankhon se jyada,
teri khudkushi ko samjha nahi maine.
tere bina yahan har safar adhoora sa lagta hai,
jaise koi shayari ke bich mein ruk gayi hai.
vo aksar din meñ bachchoñ ko sulā detī hai is Dar se,
galī meñ phir khilaune bechne vaalā na aa jaa.e
zikr-e-shab-e-firāq se vahshat use bhī thī,
merī tarah kisī se mohabbat use bhī thī.
ab ke bārish meñ to ye kār-e-ziyāñ honā hī thā,
apnī kachchī bastiyoñ ko be-nishāñ honā hī thā.
azal se qaa.em haiñ donoñ apnī zidoñ pe ‘mohsin’,
chalegā paanī magar kināra nahīñ.
gahrī ḳhamosh jhiil ke paanī ko yuuñ na chheḌ,
chhīñTe uḌe to terī qabā par bhī ā.eñge.
kyuuñ tire dard ko deñ tohmat-e-vīrānī-e-dil,
zalzaloñ meñ to bhare shahr ujaḌ jaate haiñ.
jo de sakā na pahāḌoñ ko barf kī chādar,
vo merī bāñjh zamīñ ko kapās kyā degā.
sunā hai shahar meñ zaḳhmī diloñ kā mela hai,
chaleñge ham bhī magar pairahan rafū kar ke.
logo bhalā is shahr meñ kaise jiyeñge ham jahāñ,
ho jurm tanhā sochnā lekin sazā āvārgī.
mausam-e-zard meñ ek dil ko bachā.ūñ kaise
aisī rut meñ to ghane peḌ bhī jhaḌ jaate haiñ
Dhalte sūraj kī tamāzat ne bikhar kar dekhā,
sar-kashīda mirā saayā saf-e-ashjār ke biich.
ham apnī dhartī se apnī har samt ḳhud talāsheñ,
hamārī ḳhātir koī sitāra nahīñ chalegā.
vo lamha bhar kī kahānī ki umr bhar meñ kahī,
abhī to ḳhud se taqāze the iḳhtisār ke bhī.
ye shā.irī ye kitābeñ ye āyateñ dil kī,
nishāniyāñ ye sabhī tujh pe vārnā hoñgī.
kaash koī ham se bhī pūchhe,
raat ga.e tak kyuuñ jaage ho.
palaT ke aa ga.ī ḳheme kī samt pyaas mirī,
phaTe hue the sabhī bādaloñ ke mashkīze.
vo mujh se baḌh ke zabt kā aadī thā jī gayā,
varna har ek saañs qayāmat use bhī thī.
dasht-e-hastī meñ shab-e-ġham kī sahar karne ko,
hijr vāloñ ne liyā raḳht-e-safar sannāTā.
is shaan se lauTe haiñ gañvā kar dil-o-jāñ ham,
is taur to haare hue lashkar nahīñ aate.
jin ashkoñ kī phīkī lau ko ham bekār samajhte the,
un ashkoñ se kitnā raushan ik tārīk makān huā.
zabāñ rakhtā huuñ lekin chup khaḌā huuñ,
maiñ āvāzoñ ke ban meñ ghir gayā huuñ.
baḌī umr ke ba.ad in āñkhoñ meñ koī abr utrā tirī yādoñ kā
mire dil kī zamīñ ābād huī mire ġham kā nagar shādāb huā
jo apnī zaat se bāhar na aa sakā ab tak,
vo pattharoñ ko matā-e-havās kyā degā.
