Aazmaayish

Achha hua jo tumpe nahi guzra - 
Beraham jazbaaton ke belagaam aziyat;
Warna tumhe bhi ishq se kauf hota.
Tum bhi na aitbaar kar paate kisi pe;
Na kisi ko paane ki talab hoti,
Na kisi pe fanaa hone ka shauk hota.

Kisi gair ko apni berabt tamannaon ka sahara samjhkar,
Mohabbat-e-jahan ki duhai dene nikal pade.
Masarrat ke jhoothe fasaane jab mitti mein mile ,
To keechadd ke cheethon mein aarzu-e-daaman bhigone pade.

Aaj tumhari baahon mein doobe hue ye khayal aaya - 
Ye kis gustaq lamhe ne humein bewafa banaya.
Tumhare aitbaar par khare na utare hum,
Tumhari riyayat ne humein gumrah karaya.

Is nayi zindagi ke aagaz pe tum bhi khade ho aur main bhi;
Bahisht ke khwab aankhon mein lekar tum bhi chale ho aur main bhi.
Vaada hai tumse, humari roodaad-e-mohabbat khaak mein na milne denge;
Bus apni muskuraahat se humari meharoomiyon mein roshini bhar dena kabhi kabhi.

Tumse phir bichadne ke kauf se ye dil seham jaata hai;
Humari bebasi mein chalke aansuon pe humari wafa ko reham aata hai.
Ye jo aagaz hai, dua hai ki anjaam isse khoobsurat ho;
Waqt ki aazmaayish ho, par har daur tum sang haseen ho.
Tumhare liye jo jazbaat hai, agar iska naam "mohabbat" hai, to hai;
Tumhari qurbat mein jo sukoon hai, agar iska naam "aitbaar" hai, to hai.
