tere ujalon main bhi dil kanp kanp uthta hai

Woh dil nawaz ha lekin nazar shanas nahi,

Mera ilaaj meray charahgar kay paas nahi,

Tarap rahay hain zabaan per kai sawal magar,

Meray liay koi shayaan-e-iltamaas nahi,

tere ujalon main bhi dil kanp kanp uthta hai

mere mizaj ko aasudagi bhi ras nahi

kabhi kabhi jo tere qurb main guzre the

ab un dinon ka tasawwur bhi mere pas nahi

guzar rahe hain ajab marhalon se dida-o-dil

sahar ki as to hai zindagi ki aas nahi

mujhay ye dar hai k teri arzu na mit jaye

bahut dinon se tabiyat meri udaas nahi,

Mita dy apni hasti ko

mita dy apni hasti ko agar kuch martaba chahy.....
k dana khaak mein mil kar gulu gulzaar hota hai....

Taskeen na ho jis se wo raaz badal dalo

Taskeen na ho jis se wo raaz badal dalo
Jo raaz na rakh paye hamraaz badal dalo

Tum ne b suni ho gi bari aam kahawat hy
Anjam ka jo ho khatra aghaz badal dalo

Pur-soz dilon ko jo muskan na de paye
Sur hi na mile jis mai wo saaz badal dalo

Dushman k iradon ko hy zahir agar karna
Tum khel wohi khelo andaz badal dalo

Ay dost karo himat kuch door sawera hy
Agar chahte ho manzil tu parwaaz badal dalo….

Dekh kaisi qayamat si barpa huyi

Tere ishq ki intaha chahta hun

Tere ishq ki intaha chahta hun
Meri sadgi dekh kya chahta hun

Sitam ho k ho wada-e-behijabi
Koi bat sabr-azma chahta hun

Ye jannat mubarak rahe zahidon ko
K main ap ka samna chahta hun

Koi dam ka mehman hun ai ahl-e-mahfil
Chirag-e-sahar hun, bujha chahta hun

Bhari bazm mein raz ki bat kah di
Bara be-adab hun, saza chahta hun

Ishq qaatil say bhi, maqtool say hamdardi bhi

Ishq qaatil say bhi, maqtool say hamdardi bhi,
Yeh bta kis say muhabbat ki jaza mangay ga.

Sajda Khaaliq ko bhi, iblees say yarana bhi,
Hashr mein kis say aqeedat ka sila mangay ga.

Apni Haseen Ankhon Me Chupa Lo Mjh Ko

Apni Haseen Ankhon Me Chupa Lo Mjh Ko

Mohabat Agr Krty Ho To Chura LoMjh Ko

Khony Ka Agr Khaof Hy To

Dil Ki Hr Dharkan Me Basa Lo Mjh Ko

Dhoop Ho Ya Sehra Ho Tere Sath Chalain Gy

Yaqeen Na Aaye To Aazma Lo MjhKo

Tere Dukh Ko Seh Lain Gy Hans Kr

Apny Badan Ki Chadar Bna LO Mjh Ko

Sahil Se Pehle Chor To Na Do Gy

Abhi Aghaaz-e-Safar Me Bta Do Mjh Ko

Zindgi B Tere Nam Kr Dain Gy

Apny Bazoan Mein Chupa Lo Mjh Ko

Dast basta shehr main kholay meri zanjeer
koun
Paa baa gul sab hain rehaayee ki karey tadbeer koun
Mera sar haazir
hay lekin mera munsif dekh lay
Kar raha hay meri fard0e0jurm ko tehreer
koun

Meri chaadar toh chinni thee shaam ki tanhaayee main
Be-riddayii
ko meri phir dey gaya tash-heer koun

Neend jub kawbon sey pyari ho toh
aisey ehd main
Khawb dekhay koun aur khawbon ki dey taabeer koun

Rait
abhi pichlay gharondon sey na wapis ayee thee
Phir lab-e-saaahil gharonda kar
gaya taameer koun

Dushmano kay sath merey dost bhi azaad hain
Dekhna
hay kheenchta hay mujh pay pehla teer
koun
2

hamare darmiyan aisa koi rishta nahin tha
tere shanon pe koi chat nahin thi

mere zimme koi angan nahin tha
koi wada teri zanjir-e-pa banane nahin paya

kisi iqrar ne meri kalai ko nahin thama
hawa-e-dasht ki manind
tu azad tha
raste teri marzi k tabe the
mujhe bhi apni tanhai pe
dekha jaye to
pura tasarruf tha

magar jab aj tu ne
rasta badla
to kuch aisa laga mujh ko
k jaise tu ne mujh se bewafai ki

3

harf e taaza naii khushboo mein likha chahta hai
baab ik aur mohabbat ka khula chahta hai

aik lamhay ki tawajoo nahi hasil uss ki
aur yeh dil keh ussay hud say siwa chahta hai

ik hijaab teh e iqrar hai ma'nay manay warna
gul ko maloom hai kaya dast e saba chahta hai

rait he rait hai iss dil mein musafir mairay
aur yeah sehra taira naqash e qaf e pa chahta hai

yehe khamooshi kai rung mein zahir ho gi
aur kuch roz keh woh shokh khula chahta hai

raat ko maan liya dil nay muqadar laykin
raat kay haath pay aab koi diya chahta hai

tairay paymanay mein gardish nahi baqi saqi
aur tairi bezam say aab koi utha chahta hai

 4

chehra mera tha nigahen us ki
khamushi main bhi wo baten us ki

mere chehre pe gazal likhti gain
sher kahti hui ankhen us ki

shokh lamhon ka pata dene lagin
tez hoti hui sansen us ki

aise mausam bhi guzare ham ne
subhen jab apni thin shamain us ki

dhyan main us k ye alam tha kabhi
ankh mahtab ki yaden us ki

faisala mauj-e-hawa ne likkha
andhiyan meri baharen us ki

nind is soch se tuti aksar
kis tarah katati hain raten us ki

dur rah kar bhi sada rahti hai
mujh ko thame hue bahen us ki

 5

teri khushbu ka pata karti hai
mujh pe ehsan hawa karti hai

shab ki tanhai main ab to aksar
guftagu tujh se raha karti hai

dil ko us rah pe chalna hi nahin
jo mujhe tujh se juda karti hai

zindagi meri thi lekin ab to
tere kahne main raha karti hai

us ne dekha hi nahin warna ye ankh
dil ka ehwal kaha karti hai

beniyaz-e-kaf-e-dariya angusht
ret par nam likha karti hai

 6

ku-ba-ku phail gai bat shanasai ki
us ne khushbu ki tarah meri pazirai ki

kaise kah dun k mujhe chor diya hai us ne
bat to sach hai magar bat hai ruswai ki

wo kahin bhi gaya lauta to mere pas aya
bas yahi bat hai achi mere harjai ki

tera pahlu tere dil ki tarah abad rahe
tujh pe guzre na qayamat shab-e-tanhai ki

us ne jalti hui peshani pe jo hath rakha
ruh tak a gai tasir masihai ki

 7

Ajib tarz-e-mulaqat ab k bar rahi

tumhin the badle hue ya meri nigahen thin
tumhari nazron se lagta tha jaise meri bajaye
tumhare ghar main koi aur shakhs aya hai
tumhare ohad ki denen tumhen mubarak

so tum ne mera swagat usi tarah se kiya
jo afsaran-e-hukumat k aitaqad main hai
takallufan mere nazdik a k baith gaye
phir ehtamam se mausam ka zikr cher diya

kuch us k bad siyasat ki bat bhi nikli
adab par bhi koi do char tabsare faramaye
magar na tum ne hamesha ki tarah ye pucha
kya waqt kaisa guzarta hai tera jan-e-hayat

pahar din ki aziyat main kitni shiddat hai
ujar rat ki tanhai kya qayamat hai
shabon ki sust rawi ka tujhe bhi shikwa hai
gam-e-firaq k qisse nishat-e-wasl ka zikr
rawayatan hi sahi koi bat to karte

 7

Tujh se koi gilla nahin hai
Qismat main meri silla nahin nahi

Bichar ke to na-janey kia haal ho
Jo shakhs abhi milla nahi hai

Jeeney ki to aarzu hi kab thi
Marney ka bhi hosla nahin hai

Jo zeest ko mu-tabir bana dey
Aesa koi silsila nahin hai

Khushboo ka hisaab ho chuka
Aur phool abhi khilla nahi hai

Sershaari-e-rehbari main dekha
Peechy mera qafilla nahin hai

Ek thais pe dil ka phoot behna
Chooney mein to aabla nahi hai

 8

wo to khushbu hai hawaon main bikhar jayega
masla phul ka hai phul kidhar jayega

ham to samjhe the k ek zakhm hai bhar jayega
kya khabar thi k rag-e-jan main utar jayega

wo hawaon ki tarah khanabajan phirta hai
ek jhonka hai jo ayega guzar jayega

wo jab ayega to phir us ki rafaqat k liye
mausam-e-gul mere angan main thahar jayega

akhir wo bhi kahin ret pe baithi hogi
tera ye pyar bhi dariya hai utar jayega

9 

Khushbuu hai vo to chhuu ke badan ko guzar na jaaye
jab tak mere wajuud ke andar utar na jaaye

Khud phuul ne bhii honth kiye apane niim-vaa
chorii tamaam rang kii titalii ke sar na jaaye

is Khauf se vo saath nibhaane ke haq mein hai
khokar mujhe ye ladakii kahiin dukh se mar na jaaye

palkon ko us kii apane dupatte se ponch duun
kal ke safar mein aaj kii gard-e-safar na jaaye

main kis ke haath bhejuun use aaj kii duaa
qaasid havaa sitaaraa koii us ke ghar na jaaye

 badban khulne se pahle ka ishara dekhna
main samandar dekhti hun tum kinara dekhna

yun bicharna bhi bahut asan na tha us se magar
jate jate us ka wo mur k dubara dekhna

kis shabahat ko liye aya hai darwaze pe chand
ai shab-e-hijran zara apna sitara dekhna

aine ki ankh hi kuch kam na thi mere liye
jane ab kya kya dikhayega tumhara dekhna

10

isi main khush hun mera dukh koi to sahta hai
chali chalun ki jahan tak ye sath rahta hai

zamin-e-dil yun hi shadab to nahin ai dost
qarib main koi dariya zarur bahta hai

na jane kaun sa fiqra kahan raqm ho jaye
dilon ka hal bhi ab kaun kis se kahta hai

mere badan ko nami kha gai ashkon ki
bhari bahar main jaise makan dahta hai

aey rahat e jaan mujh ko rulanay k liay aa

Ab tak dil e khush fehm ko hain tujh se umidain,
ye akhri shammain bhi bhujanay k liay aa,

kusch to meray pindar e muhabbat ka bharam rakh,
tu bhi to kabhi mujh ko mananay k liay aa,

Pehlay se marasim na sahi phir bhi kabhi tow,
rasm o rah e dunia hi nibhanay k liay aa,

kis kis ko batain gy judai ka sabab ham,
tu mujh se khafa ha to zamanay k liay aa,

maana k muhabbat ka jatana ha muhabbat,
chupkay se kisi roz jatanay k liay aa,

ik umr se hun lazzat e girya se bhi mehroom,
aey rahat e jaan mujh ko rulanay k liay aa….

Poetry Of True Love

wo kehti hai suno jana muhabat moom ka ghar hai
tapashi bad gumani ki kahin pighla na dy isko
main kehta ho k jis dil main zara b bad gumani ho
waha kuch or ho tu ho muhabat ho nahi sakti
wo kehti hai sada esy hi kia tm muj ko chaho gy
k mein is main kami bilkul gwara kr nai sktyi
main kehta hon muhabat kia hai yeh tum ny sikhaya hai
mujhe tum sy muhabat k siwa kuch b nahi aata
wo kehti hai judai sy buht drta hai mera dil
k khud tm sy hat kr dekhna mumkin nahi hai ab
main kehta hon yahi khadshy bht mujh ko staty hain
magr sach hai mhbt main sath chlti hai
wo kethi hai btao kia mery bin g sko gy tm
meri batain meri yadein mari ankhein bhual do gy
main kehta hon kabi is bat pr socha nahi main ny
agr ik pal ko b soochon tu saansain rukny lgti hain
wo kahti hai tumeh mujhh sy muhabt is qadar kyo hai
k main ik aam se larki tmeh kyo khas lgti hon
main kehta hon kabi khud ko meri ankho sy tm dekho
meri deewngi kyo hai ya kud hi jan jao gi
wo kehti hai mujy waraftagi sy dekhty kyo ho
k main khud ko buhat he qeemti mehsoos karti hon
mai kehta hon matayey jan buhat anmol hoti hai
tumeh jab dekhta hon zindagi mehsoos karta hon
wo kehti hai mujhe alfaz k jugno nahi milty
tumeh batla sakon dil mein mery kitni muhabat hai
main kehta hon muhabat tu nigahon sy jhalakti hai
tumhari khamoshi mujh sy tmhari bat krti hai
wo kehti hai btao na kisy khony sy drty ho
btao kon hai wo jis ko yeh moosam bulaty hain
main kehta hon yeh meri shayeri hai ayina dil ka
zara dekho btao kia tumeh is main nazar aya
wo kehti hai k atif je buhat batain bnaty ho
magr sach hai k yeh batain buhat he shaad rkhti hain
main kehta hon yeh sb batain fasany ik bahana hai
k pal kuch zindgani k tumhary sath kat jayein
phir us k bad khamoshi ka dilkash raqs hota hai
nigahain bolti hain or lab khamosh rehty hain

The END................

ek shaks ko chaha tha sitaroon ki treh hamny

Ek shakhs ko deakha tha

Taron ki tarha Hamney

Ek shaks ko chaaha tha

Apnon ki tarha Hamney

Ek shaks ko samjha tha

Phoolon ki tarhaa Hamney

Wo shaks qayamat tha

Kya uski karein Batain

Din us ky liye Paida

Aur uski he thi Ratain

Kab milta kisi se tha

Ham se thi mulaqatain

Rang uska Shahaabi tha

Zulfon mein thi Mehkarein

Aankhain thi ke jaadu tha

Palkain thi k talwarain

Dushman bi agar dekhein

so jaan se dil Harain

Kuch tum se wo milta tha

Baton mein shahaabat thi

Han tum sa hi lagtaa tha

Shokhi mein sharaarat main

Lagta bhi tumhe sa tha

Dastur-e-mohabbat main

Wo shaks hamain aik din

Apnon ki tarhaa Bhoolla

Taron ki tarha doobba

Phoolon ki tarha tootta

Phir haath na aaya woh

Hamney bohat dhoondha

Tum kis liye chonkey hom

Kab zikar tumhar hai

Kab tum se takaaza hai

Kab tum se shikaayat hai

Ikk taaza Hikayat hai

Sun lo tou inayat hai

Ek shaks ko chaaha tha

Apnon ki tarha Hamney.
