Hum apni shaam ko jab nazar-e-jaam kartay hain

Adab se hum ko sitaray salaam kartay hain

Galay lagatay hain dushman ko bhi saroor main hum

Bhout buray hain magar naik kaam kartay hain

Sajaayen kiyon na issay yeh saraaye hai dil ki

Yahan haseen musafir qayaam kartay hain

HAyat baich di thoray se pyaar kay badlay

Yeh karo'baar bhi teray ghulaam kartay hain

Hamain bhi ek nazar se nawaz de saqi

Hum apnay hosh-o-khird teray naam kartay hain

Qateel kitnay sukhan saaz hain yeh sanaatay

Sakoot-e-shab main jo hum se kalaam kartay hain

Us ki kaali aankhon main hain yeh antar mantar sab

Chaaku waaku

Churiyaan wuriyaan

Khanjar wanjar sab

Jis din se tum roothay mujh se , yeh bhi rootay roothay hain

Chaadar waadar

Takiya wakiya

Bistar wistar sab

Aakhir main kis din doobon ga , fikar main dooba rehta hoon

Yeh dariya wariya

KAshti washti

Langar wangar sab

Dukh kay chaman kay baasi hain yeh , dard kay shaher kay baani sab

Yeh mohsin wohsin

Ghalib shalib

Sagar wagar sab

Dil jo toota to nigahon ne bahaye aansoo

Qatra qatra meri palkon ne giraye aansoo

Tishna lab is ne mera naam liya hai jab bhi

Jaam bhar bhar kay mujhay is ne pilaye aansoo

JAhan kuch bholi wafaon kay nishaan baaqi hain

Hum ne un raahon pe ruk ruk kay bahaye aansoo

Dard ka bojh zara kam to hua hai mera

Surat-e-shair jo lafzon main sajaye aansoo

MAin nahin dekh saka dard kisi ka

Meri aankhon main to aaye hain paraye aansoo

Kis qadar ehtamam kartay ho

Dil dukhaana sawaab ho jaisay

Meri soch kay tehray pani main

Teray nain kanwal jab hanstay hain

Meray dhyaan kay uljhay aangan main

JAb subha sitaaray chunti hain

Jab shaam koi sur bunti hai

Main sochta hoon in raaston main

Hum kitni dair kay baad milay

JAb kitnay mousam beet gaye

Is karb kathor musafat main

Dil sadiun chakna choor hua

Is hijar kay taptay sehra main

Kya ghazlein thein jo raakh hui

Kya neendain thein jo khaak hui

Hum kitni dair kay baad milay

Kiyon itni dair kay baad milay

Ussay main kiyon bataon main ne us ko kitna chaha hai

Ussay main kiyon bataon main ne us ko kitna chaha hai

Bataya jhoot jaata hai

Keh sachi baat ki khushboo to

Khud mehsoos hoti hai

Meri baatein meri sochein

Ussay khud jaan janay do

Abhi kuch din

Mujhay meri mohabbat azmaanay do

Agar woh ishq kay ehsaas ko pehchaan na paye

Mujhay bhi jaan na paye

To phir aisa karo ae dil

Khud gum'naam ho jaao

Magar us be'khabar ko zindagi bhar muskuranay do

Abhi kuch din mujhay meri mohabbat azmanay do ...?

Ojhal sahi nigah se , dooba nahin hoon main

Ojhal sahi nigah se , dooba nahin hoon main

Ae raat khabardaar keh haara nahin hoon main

Dar'paish subh-o-shaam yahi kash'makash hai ab

US ka bano main kaisay keh apna nahin hoon main

Mujh ko farishta honay ka dawa nahin magar

Jitna bura samjhtay ho , utna nahin hoon main

IS tarah phair phiar kay baatain na keejiye

Lehjay ka rujh samjhta hoon bacha nahin hoon main

Mumkin nahin hai mujh se yeh tarz-e-munafqat

Duniya teray mizaaj ka banda nahin hoon main

Doosray gaa'on se is gaa'on main ayi hui hai

Aankh pe sheesha lagaya hai keh mehfooz rahay

Teri tasveer jo paani main banai hui hai

Takhat aur taaj to paa'on main paray rehtay hain

Woh gadai teray darwaish ne pai hui hai

Qabar par deep na rakh naam ka kutba na laga

Hum ne mushkil se yeh tanhai kamai hai

Kabhi kuch na mila sawaal par

Doob kar suraj ne mujhay aur bhi tanha kar diya

Mera saaya bhi chup gaya meray apno ki tarah

Aankh se lahoo na bahaya kar

Ae dil ussay kabhi to bhool jaya kar

Dekhna woh ik din tujhay chor jaye ga

Na tu ussay itna sataaya kar

Itna Aetabaar bhi acha nahin hota

Ussay her ik baat na bataya kar

Shiddat-e-gham se seena phat jaye ga

Aankh se kuch aansoo bahaya kar

Us jaisa tujhay kahin mil nahin sakta
Hazaar baar roothay hazaar baar manaya kar

Bhout takleef-de hai sahib-e-ehsaas hona bhi

Youn hi to abr-e-rehmat ki talab karta nahin koi

Zaroori hai muqaddar main zara si pyaas hona bhi

Bhout se qalb ruk jaatay hain khushiyon ki khabar paa kar

Hamein to khoob jajta hai ghamon ka raas hona bhi

Bikhri taman'nao ka gham hai aur kuch bhi nahin

Meri udaasi hi mera hum dam hai aur kuch bhi nahin

Pathar numa shakhs ko ek phool ki maanind samjha

Meri ek yeh hi khoobi kam hai aur kuch bhi nahin

Log kehtay hain keh main taras shanas hoon

Han yeh dil hi thora narm hai aur kuch bhi nahin

Karri dhoop main jal jal kay mujhay manzil phir na mili

Aur paaon main meray zakham hain aur kuch bhi nahin

Main is dil ko cheer kay tujhay kiya dikhaon Ae jan-e-ghazal

Bas ek bara hi bewafa sanam hai aur kuch bhi nahin

Chashm-e-num teri rawaani se alag rehta hoon

Aag hi aag hoon pani se alag rehta hoon

Gumshuda hoon dhoond mat meray naam-o-nishaan

Main to her yaad dehani se alag rehta hoon

Tu meray tazkara-e-ishq main kiyon rehta hai

Main to khud apni kahaani se alag rehta hoon

Phool se tark-e-taaluq ko zamana guzra

Ab to main teri her nishaani se alag rehta hoon

Aik shakhs se mila hai mujhay sab dhoka-o-faraib

Main ab aalam-e-faani se alag rehta hoon

Jab waqat aaya to woh bik chuka tha

Mujh ko ameer honay main zara dair ho gayi

Ae dil qarz chukaanay hain umar bhar kay mujhay

Kabhi bhula kay kabhi yaad kar kay ussay

Ae dil qarz chukaanay hain umar bhar kay mujhay

Abhi to manzil-e-jana se koson door hoon main

Abhi to raastay hain yaad apnay ghar kay mujhay

Jo likhta phirta hai dewaar-o-dar pe naam mera

Bakhair na dy kahin harf harf kar kay mujhya

Mohabbaton ki bulandi pe hai yaqeen to koi

Galay lagaya meray miyaar par utaar kay mujhay

Chraagh ban kay jala jis kay wastay ik umar

Chala gaya woh hawa kay sapurd kar kay mujhay

Kabhi bhula kay kabhi yaad kar kay ussay

Ae dil qarz chukaanay hain umar bhar kay mujhay

Abhi to manzil-e-jana se koson door hoon main

Abhi to raastay hain yaad apnay ghar kay mujhay

Jo likhta phirta hai dewaar-o-dar pe naam mera

Bakhair na dy kahin harf harf kar kay mujhya

Mohabbaton ki bulandi pe hai yaqeen to koi

Galay lagaya meray miyaar par utaar kay mujhay

Chraagh ban kay jala jis kay wastay ik umar

Chala gaya woh hawa kay sapurd kar kay mujhay

Mousam-e-wisaal guzar gaya to khayal ban kar mila karain gay

Bichar gaye to hum ik maah-o-saal ban kar mila karain gay

Kitab-e-ehad-o-wafa kay ik ik warq pe apni khabar milay gi

Hum ehal-e-ulfat mohabbaton ki misaal ban kar mila karain gay

Hazaar lamhon ki ho musaafat dilon ki dharkan sunaai dy gi

Guzartay lamhon ki her sadaa main dhamaal ban kar mila karein gay

Abhi to lamhon ki dooriyon par bhatak rahay hain magar kabhi hum

Falak ki gardish main aa gaye to hilaal ban kar mila karein gay

Aankhon se nikaltay huye ashkon ko sambhalo

Behtay huye paani pe safar kon karay ga

Kati hai gham ki raat baray ehtaraam se

Aksar bhujha liya hai chraghon ko shaam se

Roshan hai apni bazam aur is ehtraam se

Kuch dil bhi jal rahay hain chraghon kay naam se

Muddat hui hai khoon-e-tamana kiye magar

Hum khailtay rahay kisi zulfon ki shaam se

Her saans par hai mout ka pehraa laga hua

Aahista ae hayaat guzar is maqaam se

Kaati tamaam umar faraib-e-bahaar main

Kaantay samit'tay rahay pholon kay naam se

Yeh aur baat hai keh hum na sun sakay

Awaaz us ne di hai hamein her maqaam se

Tujhay chor bhi nahin saktay , teray ho bhi nahin saktay

Yeh kaisi be,basi hai aaj hum ro bhi nahin saktay

Yeh kaisa dard hai pal pal hamain tarpaye rakhta hai

Tumhari yaad aati hai to phir so bhi nahin saktay

Chupa saktay hain aur na hum dikha saktay hain logon ko

Kuch aisay daagh hain dil par jo hum dho bhi nahin saktay

KAha tha chor dain gay yeh nagar , phir ruk gaye lakin

Tumhain paa to nahin saktay magar kho bhi nahin saktay

Meri chahaton ka azaab tha

Yeh sawal tha keh mila karo

Na mila karo yeh jawaab tha

Jissay dekh kar main tarap utha

Teri aankh main woh hijaab tha

Teray paas thi meri tishnagi

Meray paas jam-e-shrab tha

Tera pyaar tha meri shairy

Tera ishq meri kitaab tha

Woh jo roop zair-e-niqaab tha

Ussay dekhna mera khwaab tha

Ay zindagi tera aaitabar bhi jhoot

Meri taqdeer se pooch meri qismat ka faisala

Meri muskurahat pe na ja mera dard talaash kar

Aankhon se pooch meray intizaar ki had

Itminaan pe na jaa meray sabar ko talaash kar

Meray doston se pooch meri dosti ka aalam

Surat pe na jaa meri seerat talaash kar

Jo mil jayein tum ko meri baaton kay jawaab

To phir tu zara sa kaam kar

Mujhay aas paas na dekh mujhay khud main talaash kar

Mana keh bhout qeemti hai waqat tera

Magar hum bhi nayaab hain baar baar nahin miltay

Meri zindagi mujhay bata bhool kar tujhay kiya mila

KAhan doob gayi kashti meri wafa ki

Kiyon meri chahaton ko kinara na mila

Mohabbat main hum bhi thay wafa daar dost

Par hamein aaj tak koi sahara na mila

Jis shakhs ko bhi paanay ki tamana ki hum ne

Woh hi shakhs phir hum ko dobara na mila

Meri zindagi mujhay bata mujhay bhool kar tujhay kiya mila
