Ushba Tabeer

dil ka jab dil se rabta hoga
shor dhaRrkan main phir bapaa hoga

koi aesa bhi mojza hoga
jab mere haq main faisla hoga

loh-e-dil par jo likh diya tum ne
is ka izhaar barmala hoga,

meri sochon hai wahi mehvar
kya mujhe bhi woh sochta hoga

muskurahat main ik nazakat hai
us pe rang-e-hayaa chaRrha hoga

aaj woh dil ko thaam kar guzra
zakham koi naya laga hoga

jis main tehreer they sabhi vaade
us ne woh khat jalaa diya hoga

ratjage deke meri ankhon ko
raat bhar woh bhi jagta hoga

yeh jabeen par hai jo chamak ushba
chaand chehre ko choomta hoga

samajh na paayi ke kya be-muhaar chahta tha
ajeeb shakhss tha khud se faraar chahta tha

woh meri arz bhi hukman shumaar karne laga
woh har tarah se mera aitbaar chahta tha

usay qabool thi wese to meri majboori
magar woh mujh pe zara ikhteyar chahta tha

jawan dilon ke marahil to tey kiye saray
magar woh vasl main kuch intezar chahta tha

tamaniyat na mili mujh ko phir kisi surat
ke mera dil bhi to hona figaar chahta tha

kabhi na ashk bahao gi mujh se vaada karo
woh pyar main bhi faqat iqtidaar chahta tha

bas ik anaa thi ke jis na dabo diya us ko
magar woh phir bhi ussi ka hisaar chahta tha

sabhi charagh e mohabbat bhuja diye us ne
ke woh hawa pe bhi hona sawaar chahta tha

woh thak geya tha mohabbat ki arzu karte
bichaRr ke mujh se woh shayad qaraar chahta tha

yeh dastaan bhi usi shakhss ne likhi ushba
taveel qisse main jo ikhtisaar chahta tha
