Ghair Puchhen Bhi To Hum Kya Apna Afsana Kahen
ghair puchhen bhi to hum kya apna afsana kahen
ab to hum wo hain jise apne bhi begana kahen
wo bhi waqt aaya ki dil mein ye KHayal aane laga
aaj un se hum gham-e-dauran ka afsana kahen
kya pukare jaenge hum aise diwane wahan
hosh-mandon ko bhi jis mahfil mein diwana kahen
shab ke aaKHir hote hote donon hi jab jal bujhe
kis ko samjhen sham-e-mahfil kis ko parwana kahen
aur kuchh kahna to gustaKHi hai shan-e-shaiKH mein
han magar na-waqif-e-adab-e-mai-KHana kahen
aaj tanhai mein phir aankhon se Tapka hai lahu
ji ke bahlane ko aao apna afsana kahen
un se raunaq qatl-gah ki un se garmi bazm ki
kahne wale ahl-e-dil ko lakh diwana kahen
hain baham mauj-e-sharab o sail-e-ashk o ju-e-KHun
laiq-e-sajda hai jis ko KHak-e-mai-KHana kahen
un ki is chin-e-jabin ka kuchh taqaza ho magar
kya gham-e-dil ki haqiqat ko bhi afsana kahen
