Tanhai mein ajeeb zamaney ki wafa dekhta raha
Umer bhar apna ghar tanha dekhta raha

Kahin na kahin to badal hi jatay hain silsilay
Magar main jahan gaya sehra dekhta raha

Jane kyun qatratay hain log mujhe milne say
Kal shab dair talak aaina dekhta raha

Pani mangte magte meray honth pathar ho gaye
Woh shaks mashkiza liye khara dekhta raha

Be-gunah tha phir bhi sir jhukaye hue
Sitam-gar ki sitam ki inteha dekhta raha

Umar bhar mohabbat ka kuch youn silsila raha
Main usay or woh duniya dekhta raha

Kahon ga KHUDA se youm-e-hisaab ko MOHSIN
Ke zamana meri barbadi ka tamasha dekhta raha

Socha tha pehlay kar loon woh kam jo mujh ko karnay hain
Phir tou saray mah o sal usi kay sath guzarnay hain

Jub yeh farz ada kar loonga jub yeh qarz utaroon ga
Umr ka baqi hissa teri yad kay sath guzaroon ga

Aaj faraghat patay hi mazi ka daftar khola hay
Tanha’ee main baith kay apna ik ik zakhm tatola hay

Chan chuka hoon jism o rooh per aa’ee hu’ee kharashoon ko
Ulat pulat kar dekh liya hay arman oon ki lashoon ko

Kamray main rakha tha usay..ya dil main kahin dafnaya tha
Janay woh anmol khazana main nay kahan chupaya tha

Sari umr ka hasil thi yeh khonay wali cheez na thi
Soch raha hoon yad tiri gum honay wali cheez na thi

Warq warq dekha hay ap ni gard alood kitaboon ko
Jaisay koi bedari main dhoond raha ho khawaboon ko

Muddat say jo bund pari thi woh almari dekhi hay
Zang lagay sandooq ki her sha’ay bari bari dekhi hay

Kamray main phaila kar main nay suit puranay dekh liyay
Apni likhnay wali maiz ka saray khanay dekh liyay

Aql kay hathoon say bhi aksar nadani ho jati hay
Bohut sanbhaal kay rakhnay per bhi cheez kabhi kho jati hay

Apnay saray ghar waloon ko deewa na sa lagta hoon
Is kamray say us kamray main khoya khoya phirta hoon

Soch samjh kar dunya ki nazroon say chupa kar rakha tha
Main nay tou is yad ko apnay liyay bacha kar rakha tha

Teri yad kahin rakh kar main bhool gaya hoon

Mohabbat ki asiri say rehai mangtay rehna
Bohat aasan nahi hota judai mangtay rehna

Zara sa ishq kar lena,zara si aankh bhar lena
Awiz is kay magar sari khudai mangtay rehna

Kabhi mehroom honton par dua ka hurf rakh dena
Kabhi wehshat min us ki narsai mangtay rehna

Wafaon kay tasalsul se mohabbat rooth jati hai
Kahani main zara si bewafai mangtay rehna

Ajab hai wehshat-e-jaan bhi kh ibadat ho gai
dil ki Sukooot-e-sham-e-gham se humnumai mangtay rehna

Kabhi bachay ka nannhay hath par titli k par rakhna
Kabhi phir us kay rangon se rehai mangtay rehna

kahin aah banke lab pe tera naam aa na jaaye
tujhe bewafa kahun main woh maqaam aa na jaaye

zara khud ko sambhalo mera dil dhadak raha hai
koi aur tair-e-dil tah-e-daaman aa na jaaye

jise soonke toot jaaye mera aarzoo bhara dil
teri anjuman se mujhko woh payaam aa na jaaye

woh ke manzilon pe lakar kisi humsafar ko lootein
inhi rehzahon mein tera kahin naam aa na jaaye

yeh mah-o-najoom hans lein mere aansuon pe
mera mehtaab jab tak lab-e-baam aa na jaaye…

karta use beqarar kuch der
hota agar ikhtiyar kuch der

kya royein fareb-e-aasmaan ko
apna nahin aitbaar kuch der

aankhoN mein kati pahaar si raat
so ja dil-e-beqaraar kuch der

ai shehar-e-tarab ko jaane waloN
karna mira intizaar kuch der

bekaifi-e-roz-o-shab musalsal
sarmasti-e-intizaar kuch der

takleef-e-gham-e-firaaq dayem
taqreeb-e-wisaal-e-yaar kuch der

ye guncha-o-gul hain sab musafir
hai kaafila-e-bahaar kuch der

dunyaa to sada rahegi Nasir
ham log hain yaadgaar kuch der

Wo samne aye to Nazron ko Jhukaa loon ga
Dekhoon ga nahi phir bhi Tasweer bana loon ga

Aana ho to aa jao Ruswayee nahi hogi
Dekhega nahi koi Palkon mai chupa loon ga

Jo Hum per guzarni hai ek bar guzar jaye
Her Gham ki tarha Tujh ko Seene se laga loon ga

Weeran agar Dil ho Aankhon mai Andhera ho
Yaadon ke Diye apni Palkon mai saja loon ga

Manzoor agar hogi Ruswayi Teri Mujh ko
Mai beth ke Sahil se Toofaan utha loon ga

Naraz agar wo hain Mere Nasheman se
Mai apne Nasheman ke Tinkon ko hata loon ga

Kyun Mujh se Khafa ho ker wo Door gaye
Baanhon mai wo aa jayaen mai un ko Mana loon ga

Aye moj-e-hawa,Ab tu hi bata,
Wo yar hamara kaisa hai?

Jo bhool gaya hum ko kab se,
Wo jaan se pyara kaisa hai ?

Kia us ko jeewan lamho mein,
Koi lamha mera baqi hai ?

Kia uski jaagti aankhon main,
Meri yaad se phaili udasi hai ?

Kia wo bhi meri tarah yun hi,
Shab bhar jaga kerta hai ?

Kia wo bhi saya-e-rehmat main,
Hamain RAB se manga karta hai ?

Agar aisa nahi to tu hi bata,
Hum yaad use Kion kertay hain ?

Wo humse bicher ker khush hai agar,
To hum pal pal kion marte hain ?

Kiya hai tum ne hum se Ek waada yaad rakhna,
Bhool na jaana kahin apna irada yaad rakhna,

Ab na hamain rulana tum , ab na door jaana tum,
Pehle hi seh chuke hain dukh itne ziyada yaad rakhna,

Dil to na dukhao ge mujhay choor to na jao ge,
Dil main hi base ho tum ab isse abaad rakhna,

Tum jo choor jao ge hum to mar hi jayen ge,
Tumhare dam se zindagi hai sirf itna yaad rakhna,

Chahaton ki duniya main roshni tumhi se hai,
Dil toor kar hamain choor kar kahin na jaana yaad rakhna…..!!!!
