Wo to khushbu hai hawaon main bikhar jayega
masla phul ka hai phul kidhar jayega
ham to samjhe the k ek zakhm hai bhar jayega
kya khabar thi k rag-e-jan main utar jayega
wo hawaon ki tarah khanabajan phirta hai
ek jhonka hai jo ayega guzar jayega
wo jab ayega to phir us ki rafaqat k liye
mausam-e-gul mere angan main thahar jayega
Teri khushbu ka pata karti hai
mujh pe ehsan hawa karti hai
shab ki tanhai main ab to aksar
guftagu tujh se raha karti hai
dil ko us rah pe chalna hi nahin
jo mujhe tujh se juda karti hai
zindagi meri thi lekin ab to
tere kahne main raha karti hai
us ne dekha hi nahin warna ye ankh
dil ka ehwal kaha karti hai
beniyaz-e-kaf-e-dariya angusht
ret par nam likha karti hai
sham parte hi kisi shakhs ki yad
kucha-e-jan main sada karti hai
mujh se bhi us ka hai waisa hi suluk
hal jo tera ana??? karti hai
dukh hua karta hai kuch aur bayan
bat kuch aur hua karti hai
abr barse to inayat us ki
shakh to sirf dua karti hai
Sundar Komal Sapnon Ki Barat Guzar Gai Jana
Sundar komal sapnon ki barat guzar gai janan
dhup ankhon tak a pahunchi hai rat guzar gai janan
bhor samay tak jis ne hamain baham uljhaye rakha
wo albeli resham jaisi bat guzar gai janan
sada ki dekhi rat hamain is bar mili to chup k se
khali hath pe rakh k kya saugat guzar gai janan
kis konpal ki as main ab tak waise hi sar-sabz ho tum
ab to dhup ka mausam hai barsat guzar gai janan
Sabz madham roshani main surkh anchal ki dhanak
sard kamre main machalti garm sanson ki mahak
bazuon k sakht halqe main koi nazuk badan
silwaten malbus par anchal bhi kuch dhalka hua
garmi-e-rukhsar se dahki hui thandi hawa
narm zulfon se mulayam ungliyon ki cher char
surkh honton par shararat k kisi lamhen ka aks
reshami bahon main churi ki kabhi madham dhanak
sharmagin lahjon main dhire se kabhi chahat ki bat
do dilon ki dhrkanon main gunjti thi ek sada
Mushkil hai ab shahar main nikle koi ghar se
dastar pe bat a gai hai hoti hui sar se
barsa bhi to kis dasht k be-faiz badan par
ik umr mere khet the jis abr ko tarse
is bar jo indhan k liye kat k gira hai
chiriyon ko bara pyar tha us burhe shajar se
mehnat meri andhi se to mansub nahin thi
rahna tha koi rabt shajar ka bhi samar se
khud apne se milne ka to yara na tha mujh main
main bhir main gum ho gai tanhai k dar se
benam musafat hi muqaddar hai to kya gam
manzil ka ta'yyun kabhi hota hai safar se
pattharaya hai dil yun k koi ism parha jaye
ye shahar nikalta nahin jadu k asar se
Musalsal bekali dil ko rahi hai
magar jine ki surat to rahi hai
main kyun phirta hun tanha mara mara
ye basti chain se kyon so rahi hai
chal dil se ummidon k musafir
ye nagari aj khali ho rahi hai
na samjho tum ise shor-e-baharan
khizan patton main chup k ro rahi hai
Manzar hai wahi thithak rahi hun
hairat se palak jhapak rahi hun
ye tu hai k mera waham hai
band ankhon se tujh ko tak rahi hun
jaise k kabhi na tha tarruf
yun milte hue jhijhak rahi hun
pahchan main teri roshani hun
aur teri palak palak rahi hun
kya chain mila hai sar jo us k
shanon pe rakhe sisak rahi hun
Kuch faisala to ho k kidhar jana chahiye
pani ko ab to sar se guzar jana chahiye
har bar aeriyon pe gira hai mera lahu
maqtal main ab ba-tarz-e-digar jana chahiye
kya chal saknge jin ka faqat mas'la ye hai
jane se pahle rakht-e-safar jana chahiye
sara jwar-bhata mere dil main hai magar
ilzam ye bhi chand k sar jana chahiye
jab bhi gaye azab-e-dar-o-bam tha wahi
akhir ko kitni der se ghar jana chahiye
Ku-ba-ku phail gai bat shanasai ki
us ne khushbu ki tarah meri pazirai ki
kaise kah dun k mujhe chor diya hai us ne
bat to sach hai magar bat hai ruswai ki
wo kahin bhi gaya lauta to mere pas aya
bas yahi bat hai achi mere harjai ki
tera pahlu tere dil ki tarah abad rahe
tujh pe guzre na qayamat shab-e-tanhai ki
"Khuli Ankhou Main Sapna Jagta Hai"
Khuli ankhon main sapna jagta hai
wo soya hai k kuch kuch jagta hai
teri chahat k bhige jangalon main
mera tan mor ban k nachata hai
mujhe har kaifiyat main kyon na samjhe
wo mere sab hawale janta hai
kisi k dhyan main duba hua dil
bahane se mujhe bhi talta hai
Khulegi is nazar pe chashm-e-tar ahista ahista
kiya jata hai pani main safar ahista ahista
koi zanjir phir wapas wahin par le k ati hai
kathin ho rah to chutata hai ghar ahista ahista
badal dena hai rasta ya kahin par baith jana hai
k thakta ja raha hai hamsafar ahista ahista
khalish k sath is dil se na meri jan nikal jaye
khinche tir-e-shanasai magar ahista ahista
hua hai sarkashi main phul ka apna ziyan, dekha
so jhukta ja raha hai ab ye sar ahista ahista
Kariya-e-jan main koi phul khilne aye
wo mere dil pe naya zakhm lagane aye
mere wiran darichon main bhi khushbu jage
wo mere ghar k dar-o-bam sajane aye
us se ik bar to ruthun main usi ki manind
aur meri tarah se wo mujh ko manane aye
isi kuche main kai us k shanasa bhi to hain
wo kisi aur se milne k bahane aye
ab na puchungi main khoye hue khwabon ka pata
wo agar aye to kuch bhi na batane aye
"Kamal-e-Zabt Ko Khud Bhi To Azmaungi"
Kamal-e-zabt ko khud bhi to Azmaungi
main apne hath se us ki dulhan sajaungi
supurd kar k use chandni k hathon
main apne ghar k andheron ko laut aungi
badan k karb ko wo bhi samajh na payega
main dil main roungi ankhon main muskuraungi
wo kya gaya k rafaqat k sare lutf gaye
main kis se ruth sakungi kise manaungi
wo ik rishta-e-benam bhi nahin lekin
main ab bhi us k isharon pe sar jhukaungi
bicha diya tha gulabon k sath apna wajud
wo so k uthe to khwabon ki rakh uthaungi
ab us ka fan to kisi aur se mansub hua
main kis ki nazm akele main gungunaungi
jawaz dhundh raha tha nai muhabbat ka
wo kah raha tha k main us ko bhul jaungi
"Justaju Khoye Huon Ki Umar Bhar Karte Rahe"
Justaju khoye huon ki umr bhar karte rahe
chand k hamrah ham har shab safar karte rahe
raston ka ilm tha ham ko na simton ki khabar
shahar-e-namalum ki chahat magar karte rahe
ham ne khud se bhi chupaya aur sare shahar se
tere jane ki khabar dar-o-diwar karte rahe
wo na ayega hamain malum tha us sham bhi
intazar us ka magar kuch soch kar karte rahe
Dil ka kya hai wo to chahega musalsal milana
wo sitamgar bhi magar soche kisi pal milna
wan nahin waqt to ham bhi hain adim-ul-fursat
us se kya kahiye jo har roz kahe kal milna
ishq ki rah k musafir ka muqaddar malum
dasht-e-ummid main andeshe ka badal milna
Dasht-e-shab par dikhai kya dengi
silawaten roshani main ubhrengi
ghar ki diwaren mere jane par
apni tanhaiyon ko sochengi
ungaliyon ko tarash dun phir bhi
adatan us ka nam likkhengi
rang-o-bu se kahin panah nahin
khwahishen bhi kahan aman dengi
ek khushbu se bach bhi jaun agar
dusari nikahaten jakar lengi
Barish hui to phulon k tan chak ho gaye
mausam k hath bhig k saffak ho gaye
badal ko kya khabar k barish ki chah main
kitne buland-o-bala shajar khak ho gaye
jugnu ko din k waqt pakarne ki zid karen
bache hamare ahad k chalak ho gaye
lahra rahi hai barf k chadar hata k ghas
suraj ki shah pe tinak bhi bebak ho gaye
suraj dimag log bhi iblag-e-fikr main
zulf-e-shab-e-firaq k pechak ho gaye
jab bhi garib-e-shahar se kuch guftagu hui
lahaje hawa-e-sham k namnak ho gaye
"Badban Khulne Se Pahle Ka Ishara Dekhna"
Badban khulne se pahle ka ishara dekhna
main samandar dekhti hun tum kinara dekhna
yun bicharna bhi bahut asan na tha us se magar
jate jate us ka wo mur k dubara dekhna
kis shabahat ko liye aya hai darwaze pe chand
ai shab-e-hijran zara apna sitara dekhna
Ajib tarz-e-mulaqat ab k bar rahi
tumhin the badle hue ya meri nigahen thin
tumhari nazron se lagta tha jaise meri bajaye
tumhare ghar main koi aur shakhs aya hai
tumhare ohad ki denen tumhen mubarak
so tum ne mera swagat usi tarah se kiya
jo afsaran-e-hukumat k aitaqad main hai
takallufan mere nazdik a k baith gaye
phir ehtamam se mausam ka zikr cher diya
kuch us k bad siyasat ki bat bhi nikli
adab par bhi koi do char tabsare faramaye
magar na tum ne hamesha ki tarah ye pucha
kya waqt kaisa guzarta hai tera jan-e-hayat
