Do Ishq

(1)

taza hain abhi yaad mein ai saqi-e-gulfam

wo aks-e-ruKH-e-yar se lahke hue ayyam

wo phul si khulti hui didar ki saat

wo dil sa dhaDakta hua ummid ka hangam

ummid ki lau jaga gham-e-dil ka nasiba

lo shauq ki tarsi hui shab ho gai aaKHir

lo Dub gae dard ke be-KHwab sitare

ab chamkega be-sabr nigahon ka muqaddar

is baam se niklega tere husn ka KHurshid

is kunj se phuTegi kiran rang-e-hina ki

is dar se bahega teri raftar ka simab

us rah pe phailegi shafaq teri qaba ki

phir dekhe hain wo hijr ke tapte hue din bhi

jab fikr-e-dil-o-jaan mein fughan bhul gai hai

har shab wo siyah bojh ki dil baiTh gaya hai

har subh ki lau tir si sine mein lagi hai

tanhai mein kya kya na tujhe yaad kiya hai

kya kya na dil-e-zar ne DhunDi hain panahen

aankhon se lagaya hai kabhi dast-e-saba ko

Dali hain kabhi gardan-e-mahtab mein bahen

chaha hai isi rang mein laila-e-watan ko

taDpa hai isi taur se dil us ki lagan mein

DhunDi hai yunhi shauq ne aasaish-e-manzil

ruKHsar ke KHam mein kabhi kakul ki shikan mein

us jaan-e-jahan ko bhi yunhi qalb-o-nazar ne

hans hans ke sada di kabhi ro ro ke pukara

pure kiye sab harf-e-tamanna ke taqaze

har dard ko ujyala har ek gham ko sanwara

wapas nahin phera koi farman junun ka

tanha nahin lauTi kabhi aawaz jaras ki

KHairiyyat-e-jaan rahat-e-tan sehhat-e-daman

sab bhul gain maslihaten ahl-e-hawas ki

is rah mein jo sab pe guzarti hai wo guzri

tanha pas-e-zindan kabhi ruswa sar-e-bazar

garje hain bahut shaiKH sar-e-gosha-e-mimbar

kaDke hain bahut ahl-e-hakam bar-sar-e-darbar

chhoDa nahin ghairon ne koi nawak-e-dushnam

chhuTi nahin apnon se koi tarz-e-malamat

us ishq na us ishq pe nadim hai magar dil

har dagh hai is dil mein ba-juz-dagh-e-nadamat
